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

[Alex]

@neph93 We have not requested any changes on the recent runs of these compared to how they have always been done, which to my knowledge is just to dye indigo ones as tagged then attach a patch, but looking at the measurments you theory may be correct. Maybe @Giles can remember the original method that was devised

[Giles]

When we did the IH-634S-B, we completely redid the pattern to try and get the OD version and the indigo version as close as possible. We did that with all very early iterations of indigo and the OD equivalent. But a series of bad repatterning led us to keep the same pattern for both variants and live with the size variance.

EDIT. But we never bothered reverting to a single patten for the 634S variants as we had nailed the pattern for the OD version

[neph93]

@Giles @Alex thanks gents... given the size and the OD´s propensity to stretch and loosen I think I made the right choice.

[Odin43]

The ODs seem to come with bigger thigh measurements than similar non-OD versions across different cuts.

[bluemantra]

@Odin43 I thought the opposite.

[Odin43]

@bluemantra well for my size 31 in 634S, the waist is 31.0 and the thigh is 12.0. In the same size in 634S-B, the waist is 31.5 and the thigh is 12.4. If I wanted a thigh of 12.0 in the 634S-B, I’d have to drop to size 30 which has a waist size of 30.3 which is too small. So I’m stuck with a baggier thigh in 634S-B than I’d want.

I got these from the last batch selfdege had, went with size 31
Took advantage of the Black Friday sale.
Perfectly work for me.

Never mind sizes trust your measurements

[bluemantra]

@Odin43 I see. You could also ask the IH crew if they can find something to accommodate your measurements.

[Odin43]

@Kasi oh I’m good with my 888 14 oz broken twill ODs. I was just remarking that ODs seem to have wider thighs than like for like non-ODs in my size/research.

[Kasi]

@Odin43

888 and 634 completed two different fit..

[Odin43]

@Kasi yep and I prefer 634. Also have a pair of 555 and again, I prefer 634

[Kasi]

@Odin43

I have worn 555 for very long time.
8 years or so
I find them very uncomfortable
634 is the real way to go.

On holiday enjoying my 634 more and more

[neph93]

@Odin43 this was what made me wonder about the process.

It’s also a massive bonus for me, as I can get into a W34 in these, but a W34 in the OG IH-634-S would be too tight. At the waist and thigh.

It is worth knowing that the OD 21oz stretches even more quickly that the regular 21oz.

[Odin43]

That’s awesome @neph93 the OD is such an interesting denim and the 634 cut is 🤌

I don't know if the little video above (I tried to delete considering the size) will open. But it offers a good look at the jeans, the UHF, and the Rover.

I tried the 634 on a whim after finding 888s weren't really to my liking and fell in love. I picked these up at Self Edge a month ago and have been wearing them daily. Just did my first wash yesterday after they started smelling a bit funky and I'm super happy with how they're softening up and how the seat is fading.

Also so impressive how much give this denim has. These were literally painted on when I first got them and now I can comfortably pinch an inch of fabric along most of the leg.
