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

@bluemantra agree on fit good to keep. You seem to have the option to try more tapered and slimer fits, so that is the option if you find the 634 a bit wide in the legs ..

@bluemantra add me to the long list of agrees. Great looking jeans on you!

[bluemantra]

Thank you for all the wonderful replies. I’ll be send these in for hemming. I do have the 777 and 666 as well for slimmer fit, but wanted the original classic 634 as well. It is the most comfortable for sure.

@bluemantra perfect fit

[the246guy]

That's a great fit. I have the same size as you @bluemantra in these 634 SBG and I absolutely love them, more than the 634 originals.

Just remeasured mine after 10 days wear. They arrived with waist at 34.8. Now sitting at 36.25. The stretch is there if you need it.

[bluemantra]

@68degreesorless They did feel quite stretchy in the waist. Much more than my XHS.

size down

[bluemantra]

@68degreesorless How are you feeling with the sizing you went with? From reading your posts they seemed pretty tight in the beginning.

[68degreesorless]

@bluemantra I made the right call. Definitely a little uncomfortable for a few days, but right where I want them now. I've come to realize that my ideal fit requires some upfront "discomfort investment." But I also think plenty of folks size them right to begin with and are still happy in the long run. If you size right to begin with, you won't get as much stretch as I did.

[bluemantra]

@the246guy is the SBG a faster fader than the original or XHS?

[the246guy]

@bluemantra I'm not sure about the fading potential and the speed with which each of these give up their indigo. From experience I have seen that the XHS fades faster , given the heavier fabric, tends to crease a lot that assist with the fading. May be others are more qualified than me to comment on this.

Sup guys. Long time lurker, finally pulled the trigger on a pair. Got a size 31 (usual waist size). Waist fits a bit snug but Im able to close all button with a little maneuvering. Do you guys recommend to stay with this size and just wait for the stretch ? Im also able to place my hand inside the pockets with no issue

Do they fit ok everywhere else? The waist will definitely stretch.

@october-rust

Yes. I wore them at home for a few hours and didnt feel too uncomfortable just stiff. I think its also a combination of the rise being a bit short. I have been wearing a pair of visvims 01R that have a higher rise.

[october rust]

I seem to remember my SBG(albeit 633, not 634) fitting a little more snug than usual in the waist but they stretched and got comfortable really quickly. I think you’ll be fine!

[kewin]

@Kevito718 Yup, from my experience thats the way it should be since they will stretch out alot but you can still wear them Without a belt! (for the 21s that is,19L also)

[Kevito718]

Thank you all for the help. Going to spend the next few days breaking these in. I think if i was to size up the top/ thighs will be too baggy after loosing up.

[the246guy]

These have been my daily wear for the last few months since I got them in December last year. I however notice that if I get a fleck, it is harder to get it out. This obviously is a characteristic of the black color itself where the dirt shows prominently, but how do you guys deal with this? I do not want to throw it for a soak or a wash until the first 6 months, but it is starting to get dirty and is not helping to be worn in an office environment!

Wash your jeans when they are dirty.
