    It's not the washing that does the fading, it's the wearing. Washing just gets the grunge out which results in greater contrast and more vibrant blues.

      @Daniel-San haha I do so from time to time. I just usually let it grow once it's buzzed.

      @popvulture like I said, the thighs definitely have touched water drying my hands after washing them while wearing them, but that's it. The shins really show the unwashed nature of the jeans.

        @Oaktavia yeah was really noticing it in the thighs, so the hand wiping def explains that

          @popvulture it helps remove any unwanted spots or dust that often ends up on the lap. Filthy wrote about this somewhere on here. They don't get soaked or anything, just a little moist.

            this discussion and my recent good results with using a shop vac on a type iii has me wondering if using a small upholstery cleaner might provide a good way to also spot clean. Though it might be I'm just more morbidly curious how disgusting the water would look like in the tank 😃

              I have a clothes steamer that I use for wool and suits---and 25oz 634s. I steam and then give them a gentle wipe with a towel. When they're dirty for reals, wash'em. Fades are stubborn but I take that as a very good thing, I'm in no hurry.

                  @Giles said in IH-634-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo:

                  Recommended as per the guidelines, but mot mandatory. Gets rid of the starch, any shrinkage and beds down the constructional stitching. Will make them last longer.

                  @Giles Just been mulling over this more… would this soaking recommendation influence the dimensions you would seek out for a new pair of 25oz 634, in comparison to 21oz? For example, if you have a great fitting pair of 21oz 634s, and want to achieve a similar fit with 25oz, can you simply go for the same measurements in the 25oz, or do you need to make any adjustments (eg a few extra cm on critical dims) to account for the nature of the fabric/soak/etc?

                    Always wondered, is there a reason why the back pockets are unlined on the XHS 634? Just a decision from the boss?

                        @long_john86 I am one week into my 634 XHS coming from 21oz 777S. Ordered size 36 (which is what I have in the 777). They fit comfortably when I got them. Hot soaked it at 40 degree Celsius (104 degree F). They shrunk minimally in the waist and after a week of wear back to where I got them more or less. In short, the measurement (in the waist) that you read is what you get and what you keep.

                          Back then, the IH-634S did not have lined pockets and H would have effectively told the workshop to copy the IH-634S construction details but make out of XHS.

                          I originally specified lined pockets in the 666 cut when I made the first iteration, those would have been carried over to the XHS when we made them.

                            What the webpage says for XHS:

                            • Sanforized, but unwashed - expect approximately one inch shrinkage in the waist and inseam
                            • Other dimensions will shrink proportionately to the waist
                            • The waist will stretch out approximately one inch with wear

                            What the webpage says about the IH-634-S:

                            • Sanforized and one-washed - little to no shrinkage to be expected
                            • The waist will stretch out approximately one inch with wear

                                  Finally threw these in the washing machine after 141 days of wear. Looking at the warp closely they were so nasty and gross caked on dirt and grime. Really disgusting stuff here folks as you can see. Dunno if I'll ever wait this long again but something tells me I will.
