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

[bubbapest]

just bought a pair of these.  my black levi's are starting to look pretty janky… and well, i was itching to buy something iron heart.  hope they look great on me.  first pair of 32's i've bought in a LONG time.  (multiple years).

What kind of boots are those, mahlon?

Jeans look great (can't recall seeing the 634 look so lean that often). Seems to look different on you than most other people I've seen.

@NorthernVictory the boots are Wesco Boss
As for the "lean" fit. These happened to measure almost the same as my 666D which are my best fitting pair. I usually wear a tagged 33 in IH jeans, these are a tagged 32 and measure 32. The denim gives a lot so the 1/2" stretch I need in the waist for these to be perfect happened easily.
Sorry for the ramble

how tall are you? i just got a pair of 32's… this will give me some insight if they will look as cool on me

[mahlon321]

@bubbapest, I'm 6'1"…hope this helps.

[bubbapest]

oof- i dont think it does lol i'm a stout 5'6 haha.  i have a feeling thats why they look so lean on you.

[mahlon321]

haha, ya, that's a bit of a difference I wouldn't worry too much about it though, they are awesome. Enjoy them sir!!

haha yeah, they should look great with my wesco boss's that look nearly identical to yours minus my harness strap… hopefully.

really can't go wrong with a pairing like IH and Wesco

this is my favourite detail, the over dyed selvedge edge…

[bubbapest]

1 day shipping from london to NYC… dangerous fact to know... cant wait to try them on

[bubbapest]

omg
im absolutely in love
so far my preferences are

these > the sexih 22s > MBB 25 oz

by far

i was so worried hwen i put them on and it was realyl hard to button the top button but just sitting in them for like 5 seconds its starting to ease up

off to self edge to get these hemmed…

i love these so much i think i might have to get a pair of the 634 in indigo...

[NorthernVictory]

Maybe wait for the 634 in indigo/indigo that's coming out?

Should be absolutely beautiful.

BTW, what size did you get?

[bubbapest]

32

[Bluegrass]

Bubbapest, I love your enthusiasm!    Yes, these are special.  Congrats…

[bubbapest]

i do too- but im not sure my bank account does LOL

[mahlon321]

Glad they worked out! They are really great! Wear them well sir

[bubbapest]

im seriously thinking about selling my sexih 22's and my MBBs to fund some 634Ss … or a jacket to go with these jeans

@Chris:

Well, the 21oz denim is sanforized, so it doesn't really have much shrinkage in it to begin with, but the overdye process is basically a very long, very hot wash.  After that, whatever shrinkage was left is gone.  That's why all of the overdyed products tend to run a bit smaller than their normal counterparts.

at the expense of me sounding like a complete idiot- this then means that there's no nead for soaking these things (speaking only from a constructional integrity viewpoint)

[Seul]

No need for it, mate.

[bubbapest]

word, thats waht i thought- just wanted to double check before messing with a 400 dollar pair of jeans

now im stoked.  going to self edge in like 3 hours… hopefully i can pick them up this weekend...
