IH-634-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
Looking good, @Dmart! I love the 634 cut but especially when it's in the XHS (I'm wearing them as I type this).

"…my thighs fit in without losing blood circulation."
This is the main thing for me lol

I appreciate that folks have different tastes and prefer different fits but the thing about 634 for me is how it works with 11" engineer boots. I'm not sure I "need" that extra hem to fit over the boots but I much prefer the look and overall fit. As I touch my 65th year I think of engineers as the velcro sneakers of my dotage–-I mean when I finally can't bend over to tie my shoes, I won't have to.
I too eagerly look forward to the UHR. I have an old pair of 777UHR and as much as I love the denim they aren't quite as good with those smokestack lightening engineers.
-
Interesting–I find a tighter hem works much better with tall-shafted boots because they tend to get hung up and stack on the top of the shafts for me.

The good light I had for the front went away before I could snap a photo of the back. About a year in…Mostly been sitting on the couch and barely leaving the house over the last year, so probably on the lighter side of wear. Certainly enjoying them!.

I love these 634XHS!!!
I tried this cut first with a pair of slubby denim and did not like the lighter nature of the 16oz with the loose cut. I figured I'd try again with XHS and I found what I was looking for.
While I love my 777XHSbb and 777XHSib, these are a nice change of pace. I'm really loving the big, chonky beginnings of honeycombs with this pair. Totally what I was going for. I am going to enjoy giving these a beating.
Thanks to @Graham big time for excellent customer service as always.
What do you all think about the fit?

Yeah those look great @Oaktavia nice addition

Have you not soaks them yet..
I soaked them with the hottest water that came from our tub tap, same as my 777XHSbb. I read somewhere on here yesterday that you haven't tried 634 before. This tag 36 was 36.5 waist- so a little big for my 35/36 waist. I could wear a half size down for a slimmer look but that wasn't what I'm after with these. Loosey goosey.
I think that is the classic Heritage 50s,501 look,which I love. See Marlon Brando in the Wild One. Not sure if you’ve lost weight or the jeans make you look skinnier. All you need now is an Old Harley Panhead to ride around on. That belt is perfect with those!
I lose and gain 10 pounds here there year after year.
That's what I was going for, classic heritage look. I don't think I would like it a lighter denim though, just XHS. I need to watch that movie, though I think I may have seen it before.
I love the belt with them too- Brandon's Instagram is @bwiessleather for anyone who may be interested. Really rad dude who loves to talk all things leather. It's super heavy and thick which works with XHS to keep them in place, no fuckin' around.

Yeah those look great @Oaktavia nice addition
Thanks dude

@sabergirl shoot, I can't wait! I set a goal to wear my slubs all summer but these XHS are making it hard! Headed to NC coast tomorrow and I'm not sure which one to bring.
