IH-634-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo/Black
-
The measurements don't really support what I said about rise, if anything, they're basically the same, but it's the snug top block that helps hold them up to prevent them sliding down, for me and my body shape. I have a pair of 666xhsib that I sized up on that measure almost identical to some 634-18s but with a higher rust bc of the tag size jump. Maybe the legs are a little narrower but the width in the top block really feels the same.

I'm just here to see if @Mizmazzle and @ZackB keep the pact.

@Mizmazzle sounds like the best warm up for it! Getting that triggerfinger ready

-
Well, shoot. Just spent 500 bucks on jeans. Time to get my "eyebrows plucked" and my "arsehole bleached."

Boom got em

First XHSib - these are grail jeans for me! I might set up a cot and sleep next to my front door until they arrive...
-
@KongPrecision Literally me with FedEx/UPS... "sorry we missed you"... do you mean sorry you didn't even attempt to deliver?
DPD are my favourite here in the UK, live tracking and I'm at the door waiting for my item before the driver can pull up outside, no excuses

-
Thankfully, I am in no great rush for my pair. They'll be under the tree till Christmas morn.
Also, just wanted to mention that I appreciate what IHUK is doing regarding the tariffs. i.e. Paying the dang tariffs. This appears to be very much the exception. Everywhere else is all, "Hey, we appreciate your custom. You mean the world to us! Oh, tariffs? Yeah; you're on your own there, numbnuts."
I'm sure it's good business, but it also comes across as pretty classy.

I always hem my jeans...I've got other pairs of XHS so I know what I'm getting into...but these will be my first 634s....I do have the 822s....which almost exactly match all measurements in my tag size 32 to tag size 32 in these 634 XHSib....but am not 100% confident to hem until i've tried them on...tempted to still...but I think perhaps some prudence here is key with holding off on the hem.
-
@Mizmazzle I think indigo/black denim looks really good/intriguing with a little cuff, so I felt pretty comfortable just ordering this pair hemmed from the get-go and giving myself some extra wiggle room in the length.
-
@Mizmazzle Though, yeah... If they might be a pair you return, holding off makes sense, fer sher!
-
Tempted to get these but I think I'll wait for the 888 version. My 888 XHS fit me pretty much perfectly. @Mizmazzle why are you trying out the 634 this time around? Interested in the extra leg room?
