            It was the double ducks, but now this tag is my favorite ever. Wish it was heavy leather that allowed the belt to slide under it like the heavy denims.

                Fit is spot on for me. I thought it would be a bit snug, but this denim stretches a lot and quickly. Love this denim!

                      I wouldn't do that when  You can have them well hemmed. 😃
                      Although- if you insist on them being badly hemmed I'm sure Giles is your man. 😶

                      Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
                      Well, I have others.

                          Hahahaha best comment ever @Steelworker - and yeah, I have about 4 pairs I need to ship over the @Giles to have hemmed.

                          Waiting to decide on my lightweight option to get here (well to decide, order, etc) before I get rid of most of my jeans for a few weeks though.

                            @giles Any chance of these being re-stocked in a 36 in the forseeable future?

                            Thanks!

                                Hey @Giles,

                                I've looked around to find a perfect pair for myself that fits me in every area as I want and I've noticed that most of the times, whenever all the areas are perfect for me, the waist is always too small and when the waist is perfect to begin with, the other areas may be too baggy.

                                I've come across IH-634S-14 and IH-634S-18 and I've placed my order for both of them to try them out as I thought that there isn't any other pair that fits as I want:

                                The IH-634S-14 measures:

                                Waist - 71.12cm
                                Front rise - 24.8cm
                                Rear rise - 35.5cm
                                Thigh - 28.4cm
                                Knee - 20.5cm
                                Hem - 19.0cm

                                and the IH-634S-18 measures:

                                Waist - 72.6cm
                                Front rise - 25.5cm
                                Rear rise - 36.2cm
                                Thigh - 28.5cm
                                Knee - 20.9cm
                                Hem - 19.0cm

                                My ideal measurements are

                                Waist: 74-75cm
                                Front Rise: 24.5-25cm
                                Back Rise: 35-36.5cm
                                Thigh: 28-29cm
                                Knee: 19.5-20cm
                                Hem (I want this to be post-hemming service if possible): 16.5-17cm

                                As you can see, the waist is quite a bit small on both of these. According to the website, they should stretch up to an inch but my question is: How much will they really stretch according to your knowledge and experience? Because if the 634S-18 stretched an inch (not more, not less), it would end up being 72,6cm (maybe a little loose) and the 634S-14 would end up being 73,62cm (maybe a little tight).

                                Therefore, I thought about 'sizing down' and going with tag size 28, a smaller waist but having the other areas as I want them to be rather than going with tag size 29 which would have a waist of 74,9cm for the IH634S-18 and IH-634S-14 (which could be good on the waist to begin with but could get looser since it'll expand, right?)

                                PS: I've read the post about ''Soaking and stretching denim'' but I'm not sure if that applies to all of the denims like the 634S-18 or 634S-14 for example.

                                Also: What if I had went with a pair that measures 71,1cm in the waist but is perfect everywhere else? Would that end up stretching to my ideal waist measurement as well?

                                Thanks a lot!
                                Best Regards,
                                Doguhan

                                  Hei @doguhanca

                                  I’ll allow myself to answer for Giles and he can chip in later if I miss anything.

                                  Firstly you can count on that 2.5cm of stretch in the waist. It will happen with wear. In fact sometimes it’ll stretch more if needed. If you don’t mind some discomfort the first couple of weeks the 3-4cm of stretch may happen.

                                  Secondly, both these denims are fully sanforised so you don’t need to worry about soaking or shrinkage.

                                  Finally, if you order from IHUK then you can ask them to check a couple of pairs to find a pair with the best measurements. Individual pairs can vary slightly.

                                  One more thing, I own the IH-634S-18 and it is really wonderful denim.

                                  Hope this helps.

                                    @neph93 Thanks a lot for your answer! So do I understand right that the waist will stretch as much as I need, not more and not less? It will conform around my waist and then stay like that? So if I order 71,1cm waist, it'll stretch to 74-75cm (my ideal waist measurement) and even if I order 72,6cm it'll still stretch to 74-75cm and stay there?

                                      It isn’t that precise, and there is a maximum amount of stretch achievable. Also some denim is more liable to stretch than others.

                                      It’s all about the pressure you put on the waistband. 2.5cm will normally happen regardless. But if your jeans are quite tight in the waist to start with then you will probably get more. Maybe as much as 4cm. But there is a limit and it’s not an exact science.

                                      “Some of those that work forces

                                        I see… If you had to recommend which waist width I should go with which would end up hopefully perfect for me (according to my ideal measurements I'd like to reach ca. 74cm) which one would you recommend? 71,12cm (IH-634S-14) or 72,6cm (IH-634S-18)? Sorry if I'm being annoying, just trying to get your opinion on this  😃
