IHxB01sbgII - Beatle Buster 21oz Selvage Denim Super Black Fades to Grey
-
As far as i remember member Raymond has a nice pair of these from the first run (mine still has a long way ahead :)) the SBG is really nice to wear and evolves very quickly when worn regularly.
There was an impressive pair over on Sufu some time ago.
Finn666 and max power have nice SBG pairs of the 555 cut
I am a big fan of IH superblack and SBG

Yes for sure check out Finn's 555-03s in that thread. Awesome. I don't personally recall MaxPs but I expect they are really good examples as well. My only minor issue with the SB is I have dogs and it gets really "hairy" especially brand new… of course everything I wear is hairy but not so noticeable.

Hey guys, I'm thinking about a pair of these. Just wanted to know thoughts about wearing cuffed or not?? That selvedge edge on the back looks soo good I was thinking it would be a shame not to show it off.
Anybody have cuffed fit pics?
-
When I had these, I wore them cuffed. Fit is the same and you will still get the roping effect from the chainstitch on the hem
Did you pass them on already bagley920? I kinda like the fade to grey, it would show some nice wearing. I guess if if I ever got over it I could re hem for the un-cuffed normal look.

Cool, thanks Davito. Yeah, I guess so, the chop shorter later sounds good. I'm still war gaming sizing tbh. Hahaa!
-
hello,
I own the IHXBO1 and OD, while the two in size 31 lenght 31.5.
I 76.5 CM waist
to you after what size and length should I take knowing that I intend to soak it first? -
Real shame there isn't more activity in this thread.

i'm so damn torn. My XHS's are very far along, and I've been beating them super hard and I've been looking for a new pair of black or super dark jeans.
This is where I'm indecisive: i cant decide if i should get these or the overdyed 634's.
I really want a black pair of jeans, but with a selvedge line that is visible.
what do you guys think?
Also, will there ever be a 634 Super Black with a selvedge line G?

Considering that the SBG I thread is dead, I will post my first SBG BB's here! They are 2 years old with about a year of heavy wear! These have been decommissioned for sometime due to a crotch rip. In regards to that, how could I minimize my chance of a crotch rip? I usually wear my pants a little lower than my waist and I'm assuming that plays a part (correct me if I'm wrong). Pertaining to crotch rips, how would I be able to be proactive about it? My 9634z's have a crotch rip 10 days into wear….. Absolutely ridiculous. Please help me with some suggestions/tips.
(sorry fro the dark pic)

If you are prone to crotch blow outs/crotch rips, I am afraid they will happen whatever you wear. It depends upon the shape of your upper thighs. I am super tough on jeans but have never blown a crotch in my life, but I know people who can shred a crotch in 2 weeks. The propensity to do so increases with Iron Heart because the denim is thicker and thus there is increased friction.
But if it is going to happen a stitch in time works wonders, waiting until you can gat a baseball through the hole is probably leaving it a little late…..

So probably for the 9634z's since it's heavier than say my Sams but the fit is kinda the same it just creates more friction. When sending them to SELA, should I ask them to reinforce the 9634z so when they fix the hole and I do manage to blow another hole through my pants it's just the patch behind the reconstruction when they do rip? Does washing your jeans more often help with blowouts as well or is that merely myth?
