IH-634 - Non Selvedge 21oz Indigo Straight Cut Jean
-
I need to update the product pages with some more info when I have time.
As a designer/patterner, you have much more scope to make a flattering cut with non selvedge. With selvedge, you have to have a straight side seam. With non selvedge you don't. So on the 634 and 461, the side seam is curved to be more flattering. The non selvedge 21oz denim is woven on a projectile loom at extremely high tension (much higher than a shuttle loom can weave at) and is treated with resin before we cut and sew, this makes them, more hard wearing, more wind proof, more waterproof and prevents flapping at the cuff when riding.
And they are cheaper…..

So that's why the Non-S 461 keep grabbing my eye

I believe it is decided… My next pair will be these - now if only people in my size would stop buying ALL the 634 - in every denim! Haha

No problem with zippers .. but with 'non selvedge'

I don't think this has been mentioned yet and i'll probably get a telling off by the real fade fanatics but because they are coated with resin they don't fade as quickly. I think that can be a good thing if you wanted to have a pair for "smarter" occasions. But like Giles says its really been designed for riding in mind. I'm thinking these would be perfect for the winter months of you're an all year round rider like myself.
The quality of the denim and the colour is amazing though… definitely not one to be sniffed at.

@Giles or @Sam, correct me if I'm wrong, but the Non-Selvedge version of the 21oz fabric is the same used on the Indigo Rider's jackets - Based on how amazing the jacket on this page ( half way down - http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=171.30), these jeans will "eventually" look beyond amazing. Plus, Ive seen some really "washed out" pairs of jeans on H-San's IG account, im guessing that's how these look after years of consistant wear. Def worth something to look into for those wanting some variety! I always wanted the basic 21oz denim - so once a 36 is back in stock in these, I'll try to snag.

Thanks Giles. Should be awesome for those willing to take the plunge!

This denim seems similar to the original IH 21oz. I met up with my buddy Doug and we compared his deadstock OG Freebees to my 1634 (same loom as the nonselvedge 634 but black).
For anyone interested:
Bottom line, this denim is legit.

Thanks for sharing. I'm always interested in this kind of stuff

That would be because it is the same denim…...

Zippers would cure the look that one's fly appears to be open, when it is not. It is usually caused by someone who is a 35 pretending he is a 32.

I was actually about to email and ask about the future possibility of any indigo jeans with a zipper. I've always been an adamant button-fly wearer but the 9666z won me over.
Any idea when these will be available? And, will they also have a talon zipper?
