Being re-run as I type

[moykky]

Ooh, when are they due to hit the shelves?

[CLJ]

Keep coming back to this thread…

Guess its too soon for any real evo pics just yet.

i wear mine for a total of a month now i think and it is just starting to get a bit grey in some places! this one takes time…a lot of time i think!

@moykky:

My guess is 6-8 weeks

[moykky]

^ Thanks! Being impatient I went with the 18 ozers…

Finn or other guys with legs - how much stretch have you got out of the thighs so far?

Mine have stretched a little in the thigh after a month or so of irregular wear (2-3 times a week).  Like Finn, I decided against soaking.

The combs are going to be intense - when they eventually start fading

[TJ]

Mine go from "Damn, these are tight," to "Damn, these are comfortable," within a few hours every time they come out of the wash.  I haven't measured them, but they stretch plenty.

Thanks for the kind words moykyy i havent worn mine for three weeks and really  look forward to do so again. i have some grey hues at somecplaces but no real fades. and i am not keen on getting some, as i like plain black. just thinking of hemming those….finn, have you already done it?

[Max Power]

Oh, another quick question: ihs come with pretty apparent and great roping. has anybody encountered that a new hemjob leads to less roping?

nope mate…not yet! going to send these to daniel in february though.

[GingerMagician]

Quick pic of how awesomely the combs on these are developing…

…pretty good imo for 2-3 days of not particularly hard wear per week since mid Nov - never thought I'd get so attached to a pair of black jeans

[Finn666]

shades of grey at ~ 1month in!

[JCar2666]

Has there or will there be a 634 cut in this denim G?

[Giles]

There has not been.  I know of no plans to do so, but the IH-634S-GR are amazingly close in concept…

[JCar2666]

Well you got my vote for a 634 cut in this denim.  Ill take a 634 all day long

[TJ]

I love mine, but think I would have liked them better if they were the same denim as the IH-634S-GR.  The grey that these fade to is a very high contrast to the black in the friction areas, but almost no vertical fading at all.  That said, the fit and feel of these are awesome.

[Finn666]

^ now we definitely need some pics to see what you're talking about

[TJ]

It's nothing too exciting just yet; mostly belt loops, pocket edges, where my wallet chain rubs, and the crotch/seat.  You can see the color pretty well your pictures.
