IH-634-LB - Straight Cut Loom Breakers….
-
Ordered! Was on the fence with 31 or 32 but went with 32. Hopefully it works out.
Was originally going to go with IHs in 1955 (because of the taper) but the duck won me over. Really unique.
-
I gave up 634-LB opting for 666-LB, because W29 seems a bit 'too big in this model. When I'm in good shape can wear everything between 28 and 30, but in 634, whereas the large thigh, I prefer to stay near the snug side. I will return when 634 will happen in projectile-loom version.

I can see why these broke the loom.
Bloody hell they're frighteningly sturdy. Currently experiencing mixed emotions of awe and genuine fear.

Fuck me these are liking dragging concrete sacks onto your legs!
The craftsmanship that went into these is really something. My utmost respect to the individuals that sewed them! Sewing these most be akin to sewing a leather jacket.
The fabric is very sturdy and has a slight sheen to it. It looks like normal denim from a distance but when you get up close you can really pick out the detail of the canvas.
The selvedge detail is also very special on these when you examine it up close and is personally worth owning the loom breaker for.
On the whole im both pleased with them and frightened of them. Definitely not a summer jean imo and They are definitely going to punish me!

Took me about ten minutes to get the bloody button undone…...

Concrete you say? Oh boy…this shall be fun. I forgot how hard it was to get my sexih 22 301s buttoned/unbottoned.
once they break in, they will be a dream though

Mine arrived this morning, and they look like they'll be a challenge to break in - what's the general advice regards soaking before wearing or not? I know they're a different weave than denim, but wondered if it would be of benefit to help the fibres bed-in and to loosen them up a bit?
-
I would soak…....Always worth bedding in those constructional threads....
Sure you have answered this a 1000% times, but what would you recommend re soaking? Is any shrinkage likely. I know they say that theyre sanforised but just wanted to check!

Got mine today. These are awesome, craftsmanship on them really breathtaking. My first non denim pants in many years, and I'm really impressed.
I settled for the waist 34, could have sized down one, but I aimed for a very comfy fit this time. You're not getting younger…
They have a sheen on them which is quite noticable in sunlight, think I'll soak and then wash them before wearing to get rid of it. They are kinda stiff, but not annoyingly stiff, wore them for a short visit at a cafe and they were ok in today's 24° C. I guess the 634S is more breathable in summer, we shall see.
