IH-634-DD - Indigo/Indigo 16.5oz Duck Straight Cut Jeans

These, in size 35 are a big reason for me to lose the weight I put on the past not having and half. Quite snug to say the least, I also grabbed the last 36 for years once I destroy the 35s.

@Giles I wear a size 32 in 711's and 717's.  What size do you recommend for me in these?  33?  or 34 with a pre soak/wash?

Comparing measurements, I’d say both will work but it depends on whether you like a fitted or relaxed top block. A W33 634DD will end up around 32.5” post wash, and will stretch a little with wear probs to 33”.

@neph93 picked up a tag size 33.  Matt was kind enough to find a extra half inch larger waist of 33.7  Thanks for the heads up on the outlet.

@Mark_S  My pleasure and congrats on a great score. I’m really enjoying my pair.

Anybody's thoughts or opinions, wear these raw for a time or presoak?

I gave mine a hot soak mainly because they were a little big and I thought it would help them soften up. They shrunk minimally and it didn’t help with the stiffness [emoji23]

Definitely soak. They’re so stiff and crunchy you’ll end up with abrasions along creaselines if you wear them raw.

I gave mine the same treatment IH recommend for the UHR (soak then machine wash) and got the decent shrinkage the product page suggests.

I should mention they’re crunchy af after the soak, but it definitely takes the edge off.

I did a long soak and hand wash, have them out to dry now.

Worth noting: mine have been through several machine washes because I work in them and as a result there are a lot of unwanted white streaks because of how stiff they are. If you can get away with soapy soaks I’d do that, if not, expect the streaks.

Thanks @Brock.  I'll stick to hand washing and soaking.
