      @Giles:

      Just buy a pair that you think are close, we have a no quibble exchange policy…..

      Last Question, and it's for you Giles.

      I typically where a 34/30 in most jeans. The inseam on those 34/30's that I love dearly is actually a 31.5. They are about perfect with my ~1 inch cuff. The 34W IH634s sound great, except clearly the inseam is going to be ….very long, even after shrinking (i'm assuming).

      Waiting till after to hem/chainstitch is very inconvenient, so I wanted your advice on hemming w/ my order.

      Thanks,

        They are sanforised so wont shrink, but you will get 1/2 inch or so apparent reduction in length when the combs set.

          Fantastic thread.

          Giles should be a spokes person for some sort of stress medication, how he manages to answer the same questions every week without coming off like a jerk is amazing.

            Thanks again Giles.

            With That being said, a hem of ~32 should be perfect
            I will probably be making my purchase very soon (today).
            lastly, the 'no quibble' exchange includes if hem is apart of my order' ?

                    Took the plunge!

                    Ordered my IH634s and found a local Chainstitcher so might as well have the 'no quibble return' an option and hold of on the hem.

                    Thanks for all your help Giles, Seul, etc.

                    Can't wait to get these gems, throw up some fit pics, and break 'em in! 😉

                          I agree.
                          Giles, Yourself, Max, Seul, and others (first names that came to mind) somehow found a way to ride it out as I pestered the forum with questions. Questions that I am sure have been asked countless times, since eternity. However, it is a considerable investment ($350-400) and with that kind of money comes hesitation, doubt, and questioning.

                          But Giles and co. seem to soldier on despite the nagging :). I assume because it's a labor of love, loved by many. I am sure once I get my pair I will be converted like all the rest !

                          Thanks again. Fit pics for sure. Someone said I better have some by Xmas (fingers crossed). And WAYWT on ocassion, I'm sure.

                            Great choice, lad!.. And don't worry about "pestering" us: we love helping (new) folks out!..

                            Good to hear about the local chainstitchplace; that way you can indeed still return them if they don't fit!..
