IH-634Z - 21oz Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

I would absolutely rock these-I prefer button flys but I am less and less concerned about that or selvedge anymore.  I'd get them hemmed no cuff right to the floor.  21oz is just a bit heavy for these humid Philly summers I'd be all in.

Un saludo!

21 oz breathes really well. I wear the 634S in Houston summers. Actually, they're my most comfortable summer jeans, now that I'm thinking about it.

I work in a very hot and humid environment in both the selvedge and non selvedge 21oz.  Both are go to summer denims for me…

[Giles]

The 21oz non selvedge is very different from the 21oz selvedge.  It is designed not to breathe so well or should I say, designed to be wind proof…..

Very nice with the talon zip, like this

Sounds like a good riding denim. May consider it in the fall.

[Giles]

This denim was specifically designed by @Haraki-san for riding.

@giles why the desire to move away from button fly with the 634? I'm so used to seeing that that when I see a zippered pair of jeans I'm like 'what's that' haha

[Giles]

In Japan bikers on the whole prefer zips.

Ah okay interesting.. Used to hate button fly myself then buying the denim I like necessitated that and getting used to numb thumbs whilst breaking in the denim.. 

[Giles]

Restocked….

[ROman]

Any chance of getting a longer inseam on these.

[Giles]

I'm afraid not @ROman - these are a Japanese initiated model ,so they tend to come shorter than I would normally spec….

[ROman]

OK, thank you Giles.

Not a very popular model given this is the only thread that came up here after my search

I recently picked these up to get a cheaper-test of 634 fit. Maybe I also over indexed on

I recently visited Osaka and went on a denim hunt, but I'm always looking for a deal which resulted in me picking up a pair of IH-634Z from Hinoya, which lead to a lot of soul searching wondering if I should have bought 634S instead(anything on the denim?). I did watch videos on Japanese denim(mostly Osaka Five) before heading to Japan which raised my curiosity in Iron Heart 21oz. My denim interests has always been motivated by vintage 1930s-1940s style clothing which resulted in my purchasing mostly Levis Vintage Collection jeans(1901, 1933 and 1944[purchased in Tokyo a few years back]). I visited denim shops in reference to my hotel, Wrangler, Studio D'Artisan, The Real McCoy's, Momotaro and one final that I don't remember the store but it had a massive door facing a park and a grouch guy working.
-I almost sold my IH-634Z to purchase IH-634S until I tried them on again and love them.
-Why was the IH-634Z created and why are they not spoken of as if they don't exist? I found one guy on YouTube mention them a few years back but a mystery otherwise
-I can't find much on the denim or anything for that matter.
