IH-634S-19L - 19oz Left Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Yeah I like that leathery feeling. We need to create some new terminology to describe IH denim. Leathery, suedey, extreme density, velvety, you name it.

Lol. You nailed it. Thats exectly the hand on this denim.

I'm getting some fades popping through on my honeycombs… Thought you might like.  They are quite ripe from wearing a lot so I'm giving them a breather. For a day. I'll probably resume wearing on Monday.

634-21L are the pants I have on.

Those look like they’ve got a really solid start, Mike. Love it

@Filthy theyre looking sweet my dude

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Thanks guys

I'm back in the FGLs today. I gave them a spritz of isopropyl, let them dry and then and then a liberal douse of Railcar denim spray…
They no longer stink. This stuff works really well. I recommend it.

Using some redneck engineering to hot soak my babies… I don't want to ruin the patch in the hot water. I have a thin piece of plywood underneath to keep it above the laundry tub. And a piece of lathe through the patch and belt loops.

Very good

@Filthy That is so awesome. @Ben needs to see this!

[Ben]

Yes I've had this problem but never thought of that so looks like a trip to the lumber yard is overdue for sure

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Thanks guys! @Ben it took about an hour for the capillary action to reach the bottom right corner of the patch. So keep that in mind. And use a small hose to create a siphon to drain the container so you don't accidentally flood where you are doing this when it comes time to drain the container. Don't try to lift the jeans out before the container is almost drained… Or do this outside or on a cart and then go outside.

Haha okay cool, maybe I'll print that & have the different steps numbered like flatpack furniture instructions or I'll definitely mess it up 

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Lmao

Edit: FWIW, I highly recommend soaking the denim in hot water like I did. They didn't shift and the denim is deodorized and stiff and rough again just like when they were new. I will probably do this to all my jeans from now on instead of wearing them until they are ghastly… I'll be soaking my slubby Pronto Anniversary jeans like this next.

This is so awesome! and some really amazing pics Filthy!

@Anesthetist  haha more like 'marginally less BO'

Unrelated the combs on my FGL-19L are pretty crazy since the last soak and trip through the dryer. They didn't shrink at all and the waist was stretched back out to what it was before in a couple hours.

[Anesthetist]

I could never get combs like that on the 634 cut I may have to hire you out [emoji23]

it's because the denim is so stiff and my big legs.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

I'm getting some slight fades on my lefties… I wanted to share with you.

[goosehd]

@Filthy Those jeans are going to be great and you can already see where they're heading…do you still spray the creases?  I love how they are always so sharp and well defined.
