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

[AdamJ]

@spacedans In my experience with SBG, the top block does not move much in comparison to the waist. It has been the biggest issue with my jeans as the waist often still works but thigh/top block gets too tight.

Options are try an alternative cut with more room in the top block a la the 888 or if you anticipate losing weight further, you might be fine in this pair

@spacedans Yea I played that game and lost (relatively speaking). I was counting on the thighs of my 777 SLBod to stretch but they didnt. Had to bring them to a tailor to let them out a bit (i think he managed to get about a half an inch or so extra). They still fit very very skinny, and it wasn't cheap but at least I can now pull them up all the way

[spacedans]

@AdamJ This is really helpful to know. I think if I were to lose more weight, I'm not sure how much extra room I would find in the top block (more likely around the waist).

I have a pair of IH-888S-18 (Natural Indigo) in a size 35 and I find they have as much room in the top block (or more) than the Size 36 634S I've been wearing.

Might see if I can exchange for a larger size rather than roll the dice here.

Thanks for the advice!

[spacedans]

@tenuin This was definitely my fear! Thanks for sharing. I'm likely going to try for an exchange to avoid this if I can.

@spacedans I sized down in 634 SBG and wish I hadn’t. Waist fits but thighs are too tight. They don’t stretch much. Get you some thigh room.

I sized up one size on my two latest jeans. Instead of having the smallest waist possible i went with the waist i get on my old ones that stretched out.
Thought i wanted 888 cut for bigger top block, but 634 in slightly larger size is the only cut i buy in the future.

Just about a month in on my first pair of SBGs, starting to shape to me nicely. Can’t wait to see how these take on for the rest of the year!

Sharing my first impression of Iron Heart in general, my favorite fit across all jeans yet! Is it advisable to soak before hemming?

[AdamJ]

@xayto I haven't soaked before wearing my last couple of pairs, without issue. Once they get dirty is when they go in the wash for me

[Edward42]

Plans for a restock in the near future?

[goosehd]

@Edward42 they were just restocked in December..it may be a while

[goosehd]

You may want to work through the retailer list to see if someone has your size in stock

[Edward42]

Thanks for the quick reply.

[denimdiseased]

I know you just answered this, but will sbg 634 be back in stock around a year from the last re stock? (december-ish/ winter).

Trying to decide if I should keep my Overdyed 634 or return to self edge and wait until the Sbg comes back in stock to use my credit.

Otherwise, any other 634 coming in stock in the next few months?

@denimdiseased Hi! We have no further plan/ETA for these jeans as of yet so it will 100% be 2027 at the very earliest yes.

The next run of 634s will likely be in the 16oz Slubby or the 14oz by the looks of it.

[denimdiseased]

@Bailey okay gotcha! the 14oz in indigo or in black?

[Bailey]

@denimdiseased will be the Indigo

After wearing 555’s for 6 years and deciding to give 634 a try can’t believe I’ve taken this long to discover this cut absolutely love them bought the indigo and the OD and already can’t wait for the restock of the SBG ..

[moskiitto]

@Jcaz6996 That was unexpected, can't believe it, since for me you are the 555 wearer. Will be nice especially in summer, you will get some air flow in your legs on the hot days.

You still wearing jeans when working?
