IH-634SV - The Vulcan - 18oz Raw Straight Cut Jean (With Hidden Pockets)

[injunjack]

Doh…forgot that...thanks

[MikeC]

This is a random question, but is the ODG thread on the arcs 100% cotton or poly/cotton thread?  I know the rest is poly/cotton, it's just that the arc is getting really fuzzy already, it could just be from wear. Thanks.

[Giles]

Cotton would be my guess.  I did not specifically request one or the other, but Haraki normally defaults to cotton for the arcs…

[MikeC]

Sounds good.

[davito]

yes MikeC coming along nicely and relaxed

Looks like they are breaking in nicely Mike. Just yesterday,  I noticed some contrast showing up on my pair. So far, one quick soak and a good wash.

So far, these continue to be my perfect jean

Fading properties are very fast, and it holds it's creases really sharply. Fit is spot on, with a classic but slim fit through the thigh

Detailing and hidden pockets still working great for me, some wear and tear on the inside of the leather triangle

Extra pockets were super handy while I was hanging twelve feet up in the air putting in a ceiling fan a couple weeks ago. Going back and forth for tools is a pain in the ass and not a lot of fun to carry in your mouth as you're climbing up a ladder

Hope everyone else is having similar mileage

Just put them on for the first time after initial cold soak, a good cut, as said before slightly slimmer than trad 634S. I like all the little details as well.

These are a 36. Heads up to the very long legged, these are just optimal length for me (for comparison the leg length in the Beatle Buster size 36 is perfect for me and these are a tiny bit shorter) so I will be cold soak/washing indefinitely.

Looking svelte, top block still has a little shrink in it or so it seems to me…

[Finn666]

brilliant!…

[hectic]

My top block has little shrinkage to go too after Christmas excesses….:)

Cheers guys, I'll exclusively wear them for a month and report back.

[DougNg]

Actually, I was thinking Hectic has lost some weight

[unharmed]

Glad they worked out - look great!

[hectic]

cheers man, thanks for the sizing advise prior

[MikeC]

My measurements per Rafa's request. 2 months actual wear, 2 initial hot soaks and zero washes. Tagged 35 Waist. Before the soaks, inseam was 34.
Waist-35
Front Rise-10.75
Rear Rise-15.5
Thigh-13.2
Knee-9.5
Hem-8.9
Inseam-32.4

This sizing sounds right up your alley. After the soaks, the waist was 34.8 and the thigh was 13, all the other measurements pretty much remained the same.  I'm hoping for this cut in a different fabric like wabash, duck or hickory. Love these.

[Finn666]

hem 8.9…damn
thanks a lot mate...think I'll have to jump at these during the year...we'll see!

[MikeC]

I couldn't handle the hidden pocket being sewn in the middle, so I unstitched the middle, now I have 18oz denim lined rear pockets.

[DougNg]

Yeah, I wound up taking out one of the liners as well. The pocket I usually keep my wallet in. Kept snagging my finger or wallet on it every time I took out my wallet. The other side is still intact for when I'm working and need to put some sort of tool in my pocket
