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

[Rustygate37]

@ozai I wondered why my newly ordered 634 OD 21’s were pretty much bang on for my regular IH tag size. I literally checked it multiple times thinking I had read it wrong or the measurements were from an old batch.
Some of my other OD’s have had to go up nearly 2 tag sizes.

@ozai Thank you.

As @yannis pointed out, please go by the measurements of each individual release and do not go off of tag size alone. I have tag sizes in 33 through 36 and they all fit just about the same as I went with the measurements.

When we did the IH-634S-B, we completely redid the pattern to try and get the OD version and the indigo version as close as possible. We did that with all very early iterations of indigo and the OD equivalent. But a series of bad repatterning led us to keep the same pattern for both variants and live with the size variance.

EDIT. But we never bothered reverting to a single patten for the 634S variants as we had nailed the pattern for the OD version

Great find

A pair of old 555-01od that are in for repair - showing off how well OD fades!

It’s time you jump into a pair of 634

@Kasi I am converting to the 633 gang lately!

[V-P]

@AdamJ I've been eyeing the 633 cut lately, really wish it was available in Europe...

[AdamJ]

@V-P I managed to snag a pair that came through our Project RE:LOVE section, keep an eye out!

Question has anyone sent your jeans to Railcar to have them hemmed and they didn't have the matching thread? If so what color thread did you use to have them hemmed??

[AdamJ]

@Goz I would reach out to them, but suspect they have a similar shade of gold/yellow thread that we use, judging from their products!

[Goz]

@AdamJ Thanks I sent them a email hopefully they have something close to that color if not I'll probably have to go with black fingers crossed.

I just set notifications. Unfortunately the 35’s and 36’s didn’t fit quite right.

Hoping for a pair of 35’s that measure closer to a 36” waist might miraculously appear

[Kasi]

Snag another pair yesterday.

@Cymro hey, I just bought some 1955 od’s. In this fit did you get them hemmed? I’m kinda liking the bright stitching opposed to the stained hem it comes with

[Cymro]

@harleylawhorn yes, had mine hemmed, it does give a little ‘pop’ of colour to them, you’re right

[harleylawhorn]

@Cymro thanks!

Hi, fairly new to the Selvedge/IH scene. I saw this pair for sale and decided to buy it. The seller said it was an older batch of IH. Do any of you have more information on it?

Year that it was made, is this overdyed before over dyed was a thing?

Thanks!

that is a pre-levi's lawsuit model. you can read about what had to be changed from the design here:

no more red tabs, different patch design and different arcuates.

@halfapossum moved here. @tody thank you
