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

[Jore]

How to fix it? Two months new one wash

[Giles]

With a needle and thread…..It's an easy fix, as the holes are already in the leather.  You will need some strong polycotton thread.

[tvenuto]

Alternatively, with a razor blade to cut the thread and remove the patch entirely. You won’t be the only one out there who goes patchless if you’d prefer to. They leave virtually no trace. Just a thought.

Thank you for the advice. I will take a yarn to my wife, and I will sew.

2 months of somewhat regular wear.  No water.

Nice! I also like the thread colour of the hem.

Cheers!  Yeah…  Spoke with my local Union-Special-owning denim store over the phone after dropping 'em off for hemming, and they were all, "Sorry... We don't have any gold-and-black thread to match the rest."

And I'm all, "Oh, no...  It's just regular kinda jeans thread, but overdyed black.  In a year it'll all just be yellow anyways.  You can just use yellow thread."

"So, just kind of a regular yellow jeans thread, then?"

"Yeah.  You can look up a pair of 634S on the Iron Heart website.  That's the colour it should be."

Pick up the jeans, and they went with orange.  Go figure.  But yeah... I like it, too!

how do you get the honeycombs so sharp? i wore mine everyday for 10 months with no wash and hardly got a mark there, must be to do with body shapes

I think cut against body shape plays a role, but it is mostly what you do in your day to day. Lots of bending down, kneeling and squatting makes for epic 'combs. So does cycling. If you're mostly standing or sitting then not so much.

Does the smell in these ever go away? I guessin that it is probably from the overdying process.

[spitfiredealer]

Don't remember mine ever smelling. They certainly don't now

Some poor guy got roasted on here a while back for bringing up a smell of metal and pee connected to OD. I’ve had a load of OD and never noticed it.

What do you smell?
