      As requested by Seul - SExIH03

      Bought these back in 2007. 33" waist, original 35.4" inseam. I stopped wearing them 3 years ago, since they became too tight for daily wear, and fell apart. They have been laying around in the closet since, but I put them on for comparison since I just received my second pair of IH. Thinking about sending these to the denim doctor, and maybe start wearing them occasionally.

      Neither the lightning, camera equipment or the drunk photographer are good enough to capture the textures, but here goes:

                  Went to stay with my sister Sophie in London last night.  She pulled these OG 634S out, that I gave her about 5-6 years ago….

                      I like the new arcs a lot more… And the red W instead of the tab... Unpopular opinion?..

                          the W is a wonderful touch but the arcs of past IH's are a site to see.  Gives me the thought of how far IH has come

                              Seul is right on this one- New arcs and red W are better.  I've said it before; I love that Levi Strauss started enforcing their trademarks, since that forced the Japanese companies to innovate and forge their own identities, rather than just being repro makers.

                                      25 oz MBBs vs 23oz 634s - ~131 days wear

                                      I took a few photos, probably more than anyone actually cares to look at but I figured the difference between the shade and the sun was enough to put up both.  There's some die hard 23oz lovers in the 634 thread (me included) so I figured I would throw up some pics of the difference at the same life point of them.

                                      The 23 oz is just richer in color and feel is the best way I could describe it.  It's another step above the 25 oz and I'm just glad to have one pair.  I would probably also consider the 23oz to be slightly tougher than the 25 in terms of wear.

                                      I have two small regrets 1) I wish I would of bought another pair or two but finances were a little sketchy at the time, I knew I would have money in the future (like now) but at the time I just couldn't justify it and 2) the extra weird fades on the lower legs of the 23oz are because I use to put my pants on and then pull the legs up to my knees to put my socks on, weird I know, I've since changed that because I have seen what it does to this denim, oh well I guess it will always be my first pair and truly unique.

                                          23oz this way, both look great tho. BTW I do the same thing when putting socks on ::)

                                            i like that the actual fades on the 25oz denim are "spread" more widely compared to the pretty sharp fades on the 23oz denim! also the blue-grey-ish color of the 25oz denim looks just nicer somehow 🙂
