Some quick and dirty fit pic

Nice fit and nice belt!

[Giles]

How are they on the thigh?

[Ponyboy312]

@den213 Thanks! @Giles They're definitely more snug than my other 634s; I'm hoping for .5 stretch there.

Looks great! Love slim fitting 634 fits - cool 60s vibe for sure!

Thanks @Appfaff!

A couple notes on this denim:

1. There was ZERO indigo leak during/ after a 45 minute warm soak; the water was completely clear. (I'm curious as to why that is; I haven't seen that before).

2. The denim was so stiff after soak that they stood up on their own (with 1 finger to balance them).

3. Notwithstanding (2), they stretched over an inch in waist and softened considerably after only 1 wear.

@Ponyboy312 did you record shrinkage in waist and inseam?

[Ponyboy312]

@Giles:

@Ponyboy312 did you record shrinkage in waist and inseam?

@Giles Yes. I got 1" in length and 1.5" in waist from a 45 minute warm soak and drip dry. The waist stretched to preshrink after 1 wear.

Thank you…...

Just a headsup, the forum link from product page for these jeans direct to 634-19L instead of the correct thread.

[Giles]

Anyone else?  Seems to be OK for me….

[Dion]

I remember experiencing the same but it seems to be fixed now.

[d.s3]

Works correctly for me now!

I've been trying to wear these more instead of shorts. I'm really liking them!

[Ponyboy312]

Nice fit. Nice gym. The combs are going to be off the chain if you refrain from washing too soon.

Just soaked my tagged 36 and here are some observations, I did a warm-hot soak for 1 hr to encourage shrinkage. My usual size of 34 was too small on this denim so I sized up.

• No indigo in the soaking water, but plenty dripping down as it air dried. Also noted some discoloration in the water by what I assume to be starch

• Definitely stiff after soak, able to stand up on its own

• Shrinkage: Waist by 1.5 inches, back rise by 0.2, inseam around 1 inch

• Will report on wear-in once these get hammed

any updates on these from the guys who have been putting some miles on them?  how are they fading?  are they stretching much more after prolonged wear?  Are they softening up nice?

Any input would be appreciated.

[tailoredfamcam]

I feel that the waist has stretched a decent deal, or I'm losing weight.  Stretching everywhere else is pretty minimal.  I'll have to get some decent pictures with the minimal fading I've been getting thus far.  I noticed some decent vertical fading when I was in direct sunlight in traffic today. 
These don't seem to want to fade, but I still notice indigo transfer when I wash my hands.

All in all, I really like them.

If I needed a pair of denim, these would be it. Great fit, looks like very promising denim and that leather patch, LOVE IT!
