      New jeans cut.

      Higher rise than IH-634 - particularly at the back.

      More taper from the knee than the 634.

        Jepp. Anything between Appfaff's and Giles measurements would be sweet. Perhaps closer to 13.5 in the thigh for me.

        +1 from here

        Need at least 13 in size 34.

        Enjoy ya addiction!

                1. If we want to have selvedge side seams and a proper cut, there is a limit to the taper that can be given to the jean.  To have selvedge side seams, the outseam HAS to be parallel, so you have to take the taper off the inseam, take too much and the cut is a joke.  One of the reasons that the IH-634 is a better cut in many ways than the IH-634S, is that we don't have to worry about a parallel outseam.
                2. We could use selvedge denim and dispense with the selvedge ID showing on the outseam (like the IH-461S), but that is probably a compromise too far.

                I totally don't care about selvedge showing.

                    ^ me neither. But judging by SE's experience with the first run of the 301's a few years ago, enough people do so, that it may affect the financial viability of the cut.

                      same here.  The selvedge ID not showing is not a deal breaker for me.

                        Giles those measurements for a 36 only have 0.5 taper from the knee to hem? Isn't that pretty much what the 634 have?

                          Selvedge ID doesn't really matter to me, as long as the denim and construction is IH quality.  I do think that it is a big enough deal for enough people that it should probably be kept for sales sake. I want this cut to sell well so it will be made available in the new 18oz. Vintage and XHS…

                              You simply can't have your cake and eat it.  It is impossible to give stacks of taper and retain the selvedge ID as per my explanation above….

                                Knee and thigh measurements look way better now. What hem measurement would have a tag 38 then?

                                  I don't know.  I have a target, but not sure if it is technically possible…..

                                    I measured the hem of my 633SII and it is ~ 8,5 (tag 38) which looks very good and clean, I must admit. So I am hoping for a similiar width.

                                      Yes, but the knee and thigh will be larger on the new cut, so my concern is whether we can create that much taper and retain the selvedge ID (which is the immovable feast)

                                          So would taking the knee in a little help this?

                                          Not as extreme as say the 555 but some kinda happy medium between the 634 and 555
