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

[Bluegrass]

Nice!  Where'd you find them?  Last I checked all they had left were 30" waist (I know this because I bought my skinny-ass nephew a pair when they went on sale)…  These pants are the nuts, you gonna love em.

The only gripe I have (and it's not really a big one, but along the veins of "what would I like more") is I find the back rise a tad lower than what I like. Would be nice if it was a half inch or inch higher.

i picked them up in the 2nd hand market from @tmg ,  @Bluegrass I feel silly I waited so long to grab a pair of these.

[Bluegrass]

cool @madmonday - so "show us the money!"  pics…

and what are YOUR thoughts on the little details that tend to polarize the IH faithful - the rear pockets and leather patch?

Can one expect a 634 in 18oz in the future?

[Giles]

Yes, but not for few months….

One size 30 (actual waist 30.5 inches) back in stock.

@Giles:

Yes, but not for few months….

I did not get enough retailer interest to do this I am afraid…

[Dion]

That's too bad but thanks for the info.

Already three potential buyers, we only need 97 more ;D.

I was out chopping firewood in the backyard, and I thought I'd liven up the Vulcan thread a little.  These are my favorite jeans-

[madmonday]

Look great

[Adman103]

Thanks @madmonday .  I absolutely love these jeans.  The 18 oz is great denim.  I think it's the perfect weight- good in winter and summer, both of which can be harsh in Chicago.  A few more pictures.  Please excuse the photography and the color balance, etc.  I'm testing out a camera that's been purchased for astrophotography- I know nothing of real photography.  I'll update as I can manage to shoot better quality pics- the belt is by Don't Mourn, Organize, and the stray hair or two is by Sophie (our Himalayan cat who sheds like crazy!).  The photography mistakes are by yours truly.

Awesome pair! Really love how the 18 oz fades!

[Max Power]

The arcs and W were awesome on this model.

[Dion]

BTW is this a Scott Willis / Don't Mourn, Organize! - belt? Looking fantastic as well.

[Adman103]

Thanks @den213 - yea, the belt is from Scott Willis.  Just regular vegetable tanned horsehide, and I put one coat of Obenauf's on back in the day.  Scott's stuff is great.  Thanks for the kind words- the 18 oz really is special stuff.  I'm so glad I grabbed a pair of these when I did.  They've been my work pants- I've demoed and renovated two bathrooms, a staircase, and done just about all of my manual labor kind of stuff in them, and they're really held up.  They'll be sent in very soon for the crotch tear.

I agree @Max Power - the green details were what sold me on these in the first place.

Great pics! I regret passing on these. The 18oz is beautiful! Hope something similar sees the light of day soon!
