IH-634SR - 21/23oz 5 Year Anniversary Straight Cut
-
Guarantee you're going to be grinning in amazement when you first feel them.

Tried the 634 at Selfedge couple weeks ago and it was such a different feeling. Intense to say the least, but I loved it. It almost felt like, I was wearing a pair of pajamas when I got back into my older jeans. They did not have any SR for me to try.
Now after reading this entire thread on the SR's, I could not stop myself, even though I have never tried them. Seems like I am in for an even more intense experience that the standard 634. Exciting! maybe the perfect pair for a winter in Stockholm.

something like 7-8 months of effective wear… pictures are before the first wash. No post wash pictures as of now.

I received my two pairs of jeans. Wow!!!!!
After quickly unpacking and measuring them, I tired to enter the jeans. I had the sensation I would loose balance if I did not hold on to something, that's how stiff they felt. I am sure this is going to be a long journey towards taming the beast.
Now one of the pairs is soaking and I am not sure one hour would be enough to soften them. The note that came with the jeans recommends soaking over night and then a wash in the washing machine…
What tools do you use to button up these jeans?

Told you so. I seriously had to use the end of a fork to pry the button into the hole. Like put half the button in then pry the rest in. Best of luck.

I highly recommend soaking…they will last longer (if there's too much starch in the fabric the threads /fibers will break more easily)

Denim Sailor. With this particular denim/jean, if you do not soak you will have them falling apart within 2 months. You need to get rid of some of the starch and bed the constructional threads into the denim. If you do not the denim is so abrasive that the constructional threads will abrade through. I promise you, if you don't do this (and I have one very disappointed customer who thought he knew better), you too will be very disappointed….G
