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

[Giles]

We never used to sew the belt loops of the IH-634S (and some 634S derivatives) into the waist band. I am more intrigued by the one you is…

Just to confirm, we do reinforce the belt loop on the 634S — but as Giles has mentioned, this may not have always been the case on older models, so it's still not definitive proof of a fake.

[Giles]

When I started working with Haraki, none of jeans had the belt loops sewn into the waistband. I specified them on all jeans I initiated, but the IH-634S was obviously not one of them. It took a few years to transition to sewn in belt loops on the 634 cut.

This pair has only the back belt loop tucked under. I imagine Haraki did this because he wore a belt whilst on the bike (?)

[Giles]

No, the original IH-634S had none of the bely loops tucked into the waist band. So yours are some sort of anomaly....Hence me asking to see a photo. Yours have obviously had some "work" done to them (patch), so I wanted to see the loop....

First time posting! I have 18 oz jeans and was thinking about stepping up to 21 oz. Is it a major step up? Will I fell like the tin man? Thanks in advance.

21oz is as soft as an avocado hair booster.

@meyer1son 21oz is very soft and continues to get softer with wear. They have been described as sweatpants-esque soft with time.

Any idea when there might be a restock? I’ve lost a bunch of weight over the past year and it’s time for a new pair. My 888s don’t really fit me anymore and I think I’d like to try out a classic fit this time.

[goosehd]

@dkowa The last restock was in May 2025 so it may be a while. Have you checked the other retailers to see if your size is in stock elsewhere?

Here is a link to the retailers that may have your size in stock: https://forum.ironheart.co.uk//post/121

Fit check! They feel snug but my last pair stretched so much they barely fit

[the246guy]

Can anyone recommend how I can fix the tear on the hem of my 634's? I loved this denim so much that I have been wearing this consistently for the whole last year. Not a single day missed and the result of it is that the hem on the right hand side is tearing apart.

Any idea of a restock ETA?

Howdy all!

Nearing 100 wears on my 21 oz 634’s. Been noticing a lot of this streaky fading in the back of the crotch. Not sure if this means they are too snug (the thighs and top block are quite roomy) or if this is just a result of how the fabric bunches when walking/sitting/etc.

Any reason to be worried?

[yannis]

I don't see anything that causes concern. All of mine get that to various degree. Is just friction when sitting or maybe swearing and friction. Structurally I dont see anything bad

[yannis]

Sweating i mean to say.

[hello_4lex]

@yannis appreciate the input! Unfortunately somebody had commented on my fade pictures and planted a seed of doubt in my mind. Saying that from the pictures (of just the pants flat) they seem “too small in the top block” when really I find the top block roomier than my 14 oz 634’s or my 19 oz Samurai jeans. I think it’s just the way the fabric folds around my thighs with certain movements and positions. The curse of thick thighs— the waist first perfectly, but for a straight cut they look slim on my frame haha.

Thank you again for weighing in 🫶
