IH-684S-18 - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim Relaxed Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

[Alex]

These are 684, not 634 @SKT

[Oaktavia]

@Alex do you know yet if the patch will be sewn around all edges or will it be thicker to allow a belt through?

[Alex]

Good spot @Oaktavia - the images in the thread are just a mock-up, and Steve has kept the patch from the previous iterations that were all lightweight patches. This will have the HW patch like the other 18oz jeans

[Oaktavia]

@Alex hell yeah dude

[SKT]

@Alex reading. Not my strong suit.

Maybe my first pair of 684!

[Alex]

All the 684s will feature the tiger, so you're not wed to the 18oz if you dont want to be

That would mean like these, therefore no belt through

[Kasi]

May consider it, hole with a patch.

[Oaktavia]

@Chap oh thanks for pointing that out, I was just looking through pages to check out the current 18oz patches and saw this too.

[Steve]

@Oaktavia I've tweaked the mock-up so it is 'pro-belt'

[Brandrea]

@Alex

To the uninitiated how does the 684 cut compare to say the 634?

[Oaktavia]

@Brandrea I'm not Alex but the 684 page and the IH Germany 684 page have a lot of info about the cut.

[AdamJ]

@Brandrea also you might find useful people's first hand experience of the first model that was released recently!

You can read here

Quite a few posts but worth skimming through to see the excitement to the reality to the arrival!

[Brandrea]

Thanks folks

[indigo_nico]

so sick to see this cut showing up in more denims! is there a plan to keep going up into the 21oz and above weights? the money burning a hole in my pocket has been waiting on some other UHR cuts, but this 18oz has me thinking otherwise!

[Alex]

@indigo_nico could be, but we won't be going heavier than this for a while

[Anesthetist]

Right on! Count me in.

[hugothecowboy]

ETA?

[indigo_nico]

@Alex thanks! good to know. summer seems like an opportune time to try some 18oz denim in a new cut!
