IH-634-XHSod - Overdyed Indigo 25oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut

Okay, so I need some feedback on the fit. I have been wearing only 666 cuts from IH and these feel super roomy on my skinny legs compared to 666. Although I like the looks and I guess that's how they are supposed to fit? I'm little bit worried about stretch since the top block feels almost too comfortable and I think I could squeeze in to one inch smaller size. Should these feel tight in the top block or is loose the way to go?
To be honest, I didn't expect the 25oz to feel this comfortable. It's really smooth and soft, maybe not so breathable. I had no problems buttoning it up. It took half an our to button up my 666-UHR and I haven't dared to open the two bottom buttons since
Sorry, the pictures are beyond crap but it's really hard to photograph black jeans without proper lightning.
Thanks!

The softness of the denim is probably a result of the overdying. Indigo XHS is not soft at all at the start.
I think it's a decent fit. The 634 is a roomier cut than the 666. How is the waistband? If it's tight now at the start then that is the right size. If it is comfortable in the beginning then size down because there will be stretch.

@funkboss they look dead perfect. Everyone has third own taste, some like skinny, some like baggy. I used to do skinny jeans years ago. Once I got into raw denim, that was done…ha. I now prefer straight or straight with a taper. I prefer a tailored look if you will, just nicely outlining a person's lower "figure". Also having the perfect space in all areas, or slightly more, is nice for me in hot weather, little more air, not so much as sweaty....so I can wear my IH longer.
Like I said, in my eyes, spot on. This fabric is amazing, I can't imagine how rough the reg 25 is....holy....
-
One bonus I noticed since I am going slightly bigger even with my IH, front pocket room….easier to access mostly. Some of the jeans I have sold could barely get in em....ha.

Fit Looks great - I would not size up unless they feel really loose.

Since this is now listed as "endangered", is there any chance Haraki-san will plan a 666 model in the pipeline Giles?
-
Haraki won't do either. I tried to drum up retailer interest for a rerun of the 634 and a new run of the 666 and got feck all interest…..
Alright G master, I'm gonna bloody cop the 634od and will let the fades of the IH family including myself do the talking

Does this mean i need to buy 1 size smaller to accomodate for stretch or buy true to size. My waist size is 32.
When you say your waist size is 32 do you mean your actual measured waist or the tag size you normally take?
Either way measure a well used pair that fit you how you like in the waist. Use the IH way of measuring. Buy a pair that actually measure about an inch less than that measurement when new.
