IH-634S - 21oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

@xchen:

I washed mine Friday. Absolutely no shrinkage to speak of.

The waist was tighter for about 30 minutes and they've stretched back out and are now the exact same. Also all the creases reset in the same places.

Thanks guys… Does it make a difference whether I machine wash or hand wadh?

[grandmasterben]

The best thing to do is flip those suckers inside out and machine wash on cold and hang dry, imo

[xchen]

^That's exactly what I'd suggest too

So just received a pair of 634S the other day.

Just a really tough, well built pair of jeans. A few impressions: I can't believe how soft they are. I know they are sanforized but still. Also, there is a spot on the pants on the right side that really digs into my hip. At first I thought there was a rivet facing inward because it feels like a small metal stud. When I took them off I felt on the inside up the selvege and it turns out there is just a high concentration of material in a small spot. It is on the side seam towards the top where the pockets are sewn into the pants. The top block is by no means too tight. Anyone else experience this?

Yes I sometime feel the chain-stitch digging in my right hip but juts endure it

[jackie17]

I will do that. I had never heard anyone mention it before so wondered if it was unique to the pair I have.

*MikeC cleans out stock.

You've got to brush up on your background research Shoreman: MikeC doesn't do sanforized and 18oz is the perfect denim weight.

LOL - you guys probably know each others' inside leg measurements!

I believe Mike is about a 32 inseam.  Not sure about Sugar…

Slightly disturbing, isn't it?

[Sugar Mountain]

I take a 33. Commit that to memory.

[Chris]

I thought you were taller, for some reason.  But yes, I am properly chastened.  I won't forget any more.;)

[Sugar Mountain]

I'm 5'11" but for whatever reason don't take a long inseam. Lengthy torso? Haha

Hey folks! Just thought I'd give an update, since everyone was so quick to offer sizing advice. My 634s arrived yesterday, and I have no words for how awesome they are. I got them hemmed this morning to slightly longer than needed, so I have room for cuff/stacking.

-Size 36, true waist 37"-

Thanks again for the advice - I have a feeling my other pants won't quite seem the same any more…

Looks great! Maybe a little bit too long but thats just a matter of taste.
Yeah, I sold most of my other pants and "jeans", now I only own 2 634S´s and everything is just fine

[davito]

It will not be the same as it was before
Nicely done IronStomach, enjoy this beauty and keep us posted about ur adventures with ur jeans

[IronStomach]

Cheers! I will. Also a huge thanks to Paula and Giles (and the rest at IH UK), I placed my order on Tuesday morning and they were at my house in Canada by Friday.

Yeah, I intentionally got them a bit long - partly because I want to see how they stack, and I can always get them trimmed a little more. Also because my usual tailor wasn't available, and I wanted to leave a bit of room in case they messed things up.
