IH-633SII - Self Edge x Iron Heart 18oz Indigo/Indigo Selvedge Straight Tapered

[Chris]

If I remember correctly, Haraki felt "denim" was only blue or black warp and white or natural weft.  Anything else was just a twill fabric.  So this blue on blue action wasn't real denim, and therefore unfit to be used for jeans.

Happily for all of us, he's become more tolerant of deviance.

Correct…....Go to the top of the class....

@Matty123:

these are only available through self edge correct?

This particular fit/fabric combo, yes!

@Giles:

No, it was made by H at my request.  He was very dismissive of it when it was first woven:

Over dinner at the Marriot Courtyard in Bangkok.

H - I've run the sample of Indigo/Indigo you requested
G - What's it like?
H - Well, you'll  like it

He subsequently decided he liked it too and asked me if he could release it in Japan 

thats a great story. thanks for sharing giles.

So I had to give up on the 634SII and got myself a pair of these. I am so glad I did as they fit beautifully. Just need to do a first wash, but I am wearing them for a bit before I do, just my thing. LOVE this denim, I think it is one of IH best, be it all of IH denim is amazing.

Would love to see more member photos of these on here.  I think I'll be ordering these real soon.

[Matty123]

Just nabbed a used pair of these on eBay for 85 bucks. They are in great shape. Will
Lost pics later. I like the fit.

Thats a great find! I just ordered a pair from SE. @Appfaff tempted me with his 18oz version. The measurements seem perfect as I can't really do a 666 cut. I might even go for the OD version as well.

[Appfaff]

I’m sure you will Love then @joephoto - I’d love the ODs as well, but alas… not enough legs lol [emoji23]

I think I will. The measurements are very 888 esque, i.e. good thighs with a taper. It's just that bottom opening sometimes is too narrow. But I think the OD's are on deck… I might just be a bit more patient to see the measurements on the 888 version and compare.

[Matty123]

You’re gonna love these. Slightly smaller rise than the 888NT.

I can't believe I missed these… or never bothered to look at the measurements. I can't wait! I need more legs.

[Matty123]

Well I meant the cut. No necessarily the II

I lucked out and found a pair of the 18oz overdyed in a 40 waist on eBay for a reasonable price.  They fit great.  The cut is definitely a winner.

The fading on these is great!

I’m thinking about getting a pair of these from the SE warehouse sale. How much do they shrink/stretch? The size 29 633 in the 21oz denim fits me really well, but I was thinking about sizing up to a 30 for any shrinkage.

[kkibbey23]

The SE sale was pretty hard to pass up. I went in, and I'm pretty excited for both the Indigo indigo and the tonal! I've never had full tonal or 18oz before, and this looks pretty special.

Cut appears to be a slightly slimmed down 888?

Eaither way it sounds like a winning combo[emoji41]
