IH-634S - 21oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

[spaceballs]

@Daveo:

Where are you concerned about bleeding?  I noticed a lot of blue on my hands for the first couple of months but not really much damage on anything else.  My boots were all indigo stained already, though.

I guess I would say that I am sort of concerned about bleeding onto boots. I wear Red Wing 877s in that classic tan color, which I am pretty sure will show indigo pretty well.

More than anything, I am just anxious to start breaking these jeans in and just sort of curious what to expect. Thanks for your input and help!

Personally I love indigo stains on boots, but the ones on my RW 875:s are especially beautiful. My Vibergs are showing some nice ones as well and I can't wait to introduce them to the 634:s.

Raw denim will bleed and stain. Deal with it.

Wore my pair of these to work tonight for the first time in forever.  Forgot just how awesome they are.  Super-heavy & super-comfortable.

got mine delivered a while ago. Me thinks fit is spot on.

pics to follow, and hot soak in the evening.

Don't think you need to do a hot soak, they are sanforized.  Fit pics for sure.

[Giles]

No need to soak em

[injunjack]

Not even to get excess starch out??

[Geo]

nope

they wear beautifully straight out the tin

[injunjack]

these were spot on, just a tad snug to button, but I did something I think I saw in IH japan site. I buttoned and just ripped all buttons open a couple of times. No pain in fingers when putting jawnz on.
The cuff is just as wide as I wanted it to be.

Nice…..........

[injunjack]

thanks

BB's would have been too much for my fat arse. And these fit very nicely over my different boots

[Geo]

they look good on you IJ (that's how i see cuffs too) . . . sometimes you just can't beat the classics

[injunjack]

Beatle, Geo; much obliged

Ay, with these I have found out that the classics ARE the ones, like my 461's. At least with elderly gentleman (?) like me. (just turned 47 btw)
and about the cuffs, Geo, I think we can agree here that official cuffing is as follows: Cuff only once and width of cuff is 1 1/4" to 2". No less, no more ;-))

[injunjack]

ha, it is a pendleton. I got the same but in size L tall. gotta do something about it, got it so cheap that I couldn't say no..

Little update on my 634's,not to much in the way of fading but i'm more than happy with these,im currently selling of all my other jeans and keeping only these and my pair of 9634z's.

Pics of my 634S's so far, easilly my favourite jeans. Bought in November 2009 from Hinoya in Ueno Tokyo. Been wearing since Feb 2010 when it hasn't been too warm and also rotating with other pairs so no major fades or contrast as yet. However, I think they're showing promise for the future. Planning on giving them a seawash in August so I'll post again then.

reposting this. Was my 634s 2 years ago, now I believe they're in Beats' possesion
Maybe 1,5 year of effective wear
