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

[Adman103]

I cuff if I need to.  I didn't have my Vulcans hemmed, so I cuff them, but I'm starting to wear my 634S uncuffed, and I'm liking it…  generally, I dig cuffs, but I'll wear both looks.

@Seul:

I always cuff. Everything.

You're killing me man

[Anesthetist]

Dug these out and I'm glad I did. These might just be my best pair and I really love the knife pockets.

First wash right at 7 months
Rotating with two other pairs of iron hearts.
One initial soak and one soak a couple months back

Knife fades on the back pocket are looking sick.  Coming along great!
The Vulcans are my favorites at this point.  I'm waiting till all of the snow that's been dumped on Chicago melts away for my second wash- that should represent about 9 months of wear.  The bottom cuffs are crusted over in salt right now, so I'm looking forward to the 18 oz changing from its current stiff-as-a-board encrusted state to actual fabric again.

I'm amazed how much the 18 oz denim breaks in- my Vulcans didn't flinch for several months of hard wear, but now they've turned into a beautiful tough/soft state.

after their first wash. Still feel relatively stiff. These have been the most
Stubborn jeans ever and I love it.

Nice. Esp. those fades on your back pocket. Folder and fixed blade

[Jek]

Just gave mine their first wash, 6 months deep. These are so dang stubborn, there's very little fading still at this point. JoshJames, yours are looking very nice. Keep beating 'em hard (that sounded wrong) and keep us updated!

Was late leaving the office today as I was busy starting at these. 8 months in I think by now, getting ready for their next wash.

Combs really starting to come along. Had to snap a shot, couldn't help it :).

[Mild7]

Put some pants on!

Nice combs though..

[Snowy]

was hoping I could get away with it, that failed :P. Was hard to take a photo of the combs whilst wearing them

[Snowy]

To make up for pant-less I went for a pant-solo.

@ 8 months of ~5 days/week wear.

Road Champs photobombed your vulcan solo!

[Giles]

I noticed that too…..

[grandmasterben]

Jeans are looking good but I want to see some more wear on them babies…

I always cuff, but I'm surprised that more retailers don't show fits cuffed. Maybe it's just me but I think that a cut looks most what it's supposed to look like when the inseam is around your true inseam (which generally isn't 34 or 36"), and cuffing is the easiest way to get it around that ballpark.

I guess retailers want to show the true silhouette of the jeans hence the no cuffs decision.
For me personally, I like both ways but sometimes, imo the proper length which allows one to have at least an inch of cuff  when wished, and no cuffs when looking for a cleaner look especially when wearing dress shoes or boots alike is a popular choice. I will eventually hemmed my jeans when the time comes but for now will wear them with big cuffs. Cuffs FTW.. 

Anyway love those standings snowman!!

ahem yeah, they did :). Didn't want to cut them out after the fact once it was all taken.
