634s-SEXIH13 - 23oz Selvedge - Straight Fit
-
from kiya today on sufu: "the 301s is coming out in a super small run of the [634s-SEXIH13] denim in three weeks"
these will be epic
-
This is tough denim - I love it but they are still really stiff and holding their color vs. my other IH denims (21 and 18). I don't have any 25 oz but I wonder how that could possibly be any heavier/stiffer than this 23 oz tight weave. Fanya jumps off cliffs and shit - I don't see how mere mortals who sit in chairs all day could ever put a dent in it :).
-
Oh and bluegrass, the 23 is tighter and stiffer. The 25s I'm wearing seem to have loosened up faster, and losing their color faster too. They are also a lot cooler, the difference between the heat in the 23 vs 25 is crazy.
I hope the 301 cut is flattering on me cause I'll be one just to let it sit for till the contest is over. The 23oz is by far my favorite between the 23 vs 25.

I'm not big on the 301 personally I'm a skinny dude but at 6'6" there's no way it's physically possible for a 10.7 thigh measurement to work for me even though I only weigh in at 170 lbs… That's just way too tight for my liking furthermore the leg opening is 7" which means no boots either at least for me wearing a size 13 boot under a hem opening that small looks like I'm trying out to be the next Ronald McDonald
-
I agree, I'm like you and hoping that perhaps with the heavier and tighter weave that the cut may open up a bit… Even if to just an 11" thigh I could manage that... But I really would need the hem opening almost an inch larger to satisfy my type of footwear and with that much of a change it would practically give the cut the sane specs as the devil cut. Now that I think about it a 23 oz. 666 would be epic!! Doubtful to happen tho
-
Ya but the whole point is we are in love with the 23oz
With the BB being release in the 25oz now I doubt it will be released in the 23 anytime soon.
I just need to size my jeans down, I keep thinking I wear a 31, and I got a 32 in the BBs because I was scared of the thigh being too small but it ended up the rise being too way too high… I think a 30 would of been perfect as the rise would of been lower, more in line with the 634 but a slightly slimmer profile. Maybe next time.
My next pair is probably going to be a 30 in the 634xhs unless there is a 23 oz cut that comes out in the next two years that will fit me.
After putting the sexih13 the other day again I released how perfect of a cut this is for me, I so regret not buying a couple more pairs... maybe it will be rerun again someday...

Yeah Seul, I hear ya and I have the 25 oz 666… But like fantastic said we both are absolutely in love with the 23 oz. it's the most amazing denim out of ANY denim I have... Including even my Sammie's.
I also had the same issue with the MBB I opted for a 31 and am GLAD I did not go with a 30 because the waist was a 30 on these anyway but generally I've found 30 works in just about everything. I sized up on the batch of new 666s and really kind of regret it even though the thigh fits perfect the top box just feels weird still ... Just too much room. I mean I'm not trying to crush the boys or anything but I like to have a good snug fit and those did not work out and have crazy stretch. I'm pretty sure I could have gone tts and the thigh would have stretched proper.
-
I love the leather tag on these. The piston is really cool!
That's what piqued my interest in these in the first place. Once I saw/felt the denim and tried on the jacket, I just had to have the set.

Ya know….. I was just thinking sometimes you stumble on to something do great that you have to realize it just never gets any better. That how I am beginning to feel about this Particular jean for myself at least. This is hands down the best fitting/feeling/looking/built jean I have ever owned. I have tried and tried to find something lighter that will parallel the feeling of perfection I get when I wear these but nothing comes close. The closest I have are my couple pairs of 25 oz'ers but that is working in reverse...
ANYWAY.. I'm very happy I bought two pairs of this jean so I will have them with me at least for several more years of wear but I hope that this denim, in this cut, is one day given a second chance. It's amazing, I'm sad they, IMO, they wasted the last of this denim on the 301s.
This is a love affair, mainly between my denim and me.

I agree with all of this.
If this cut in this denim was rerun I would buy two more pairs. I wish I would of bought a couple more while I had the chance but just didn't have the money at the time.

I just messaged kiya about this fanya. You should do the same, as well as anyone else who absolutely loves these exactly as they were made the first time. Maybe if we let him know the love for this jean it will become a regular production jean for SE. I can guarantee if it runs again I will buy as many size 30 as I can afford to make sure I have plenty to last.
-
Will do. I just got my length mirror back in a place I can use it at the house so ill post done fit pics of these probably tomorrow and the 634sb today.
-
Just got word back from Kiya. These will never be run again.
