      And cuffs cause thread breakage after a while and eventually a line hole. And no matter who darn or sews them,they never look that good again. I have a second hand pair of IH that are cuffed because the previous owner did so. Theylook like Shite uncuffed now due to the threads breaking.

      Edit for spelling

      Maybe so. Maybe not

        Aside from slacks, I don't own a single pair of pants that is hemmed to a proper length… Every single pair is worn cuffed, and I have never gotten a hole or frays. Maybe I need more mileage on my jawnz

          My IH-816DD's are hemmed to an un-cuffable length...

          If I ever visit your home, I'll be sure to wear them, so as I don't track in any pebbles!  😃

            Do you un-cuff and re-cuff after and before every wear? I usually just leave my cuffs in.

                            I can get a pygmy pig

                            are you serious or being a doug? if serious tell me more, had a friend that wanted to get into pig farming and all I could ever think of was the movie where the villain advised everyone to beware of a man with pigs because they can eat this much human flesh and blah, blah, blah


                            not a bad unpop @Clint_D , being that I'm 5 feet 8 inches on a good day I tend to go with slim, highly tapered denim because by the time they are hemmed to my 28" to 30" they almost always look like a regular pair of jeans.  when I put on 634s and jeans that are supposed to be able to accommodate a lot of folks builds and get the denim hemmed they look horrible on me (think jinco jeans)

                            not sure why, but I'm not into the faux cuff where you see the hem sticking out but there is still like a foot of denim rolled up.  and again no idea why I don't like it as I love a single cuff, might be cause they cheating and getting the best of both worlds by showing the roping and having a cuff and not committing to the single cuff

                            yeah a bit of a neph post hahahaha

                              I cuff all my jeans. Mainly because it makes the hem smaller and no one likes. 10” hem with size 9.5 shoes haha [emoji23]

                                I only uncuff before a wash and then recuff after my jeans have dried, otherwise, they remained cuffed

                                  That’s my issue. That’s why before the 888 I had all my IH tapered by Railcar. you can drive a car through the hem of a size 42 634s. Now that I’m down some weight I can fit in other cuts.

                                  Maybe so. Maybe not

                                    Warm water?  What kind of a monster are you?  The correct method is machine wash, cold water with full spin cycle, and a machine dry (high heat).

                                        I also wear slim tapered denim. jeans with wide hems look silly on me. it's about proportions. @ 5'11 I simply can't get away with a hem that's 8.25" or bigger. I'm not against uncuffed denim either though, I just think wearing your jeans cuffed or uncuffed is dependent on the type of footwear you're wearing and how the denim drapes.

                                            I really do want one, but I'm fighting an uphill battle since there is some inconsistency in the breeding. You can wind up with a pig the size of a large dog, mostly they get up to 200lbs, and could potentially get up to 600lbs. Jody isn't real hot on that idea.

                                            This is only for pygmy pigs, not potbellied pigs.

                                            And yes, pigs are one of only a few species that can digest human hair and bone. There is a pig farm 7.2 miles from my house.

                                            I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose
