IH-634S - 21oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
Giles, got my jeans today and they are a perfect fit. Your excellent measuring instructions were super handy. I measured various pants in my wardrobe that fit well and not so well and determined the best model from your choices.
Regarding my fit, I have extremely muscular thighs and calves. I originally used this link to help me identify the IH634S as a good option for me. http://goonlifter.wikispaces.com/Fitting+into+jeans
FYI, my waist to thigh is a ridiculous 1.87 :-\
Even so, the 634 is the best fit I have ever found in a pair of jeans and I have had trouble in this area as you can imagine. I also received them within just a few days, which was great. Thanks a lot and merry Christmas.

Best cut, best fabric. Period.

Hi guys,
I really like the look of the 634s but I'm a bit worried about the thigh width. My size would probably be a waist 36" but the thigh measurement on these states a huge 13.5"! I have some jeans with a thigh measurement a bit less than that and they have always felt really baggy on me. It's a bit strange, because all the pictures I've seen show great looking straight cut.
These would easily be the most expensive jeans I have ever owned, so just wanted some input before I place an order.
Many thanks

Welcome Dentman, thanks for your question, its totally valid.
You should check the dimensions of the Beatle Buster and 666 cuts. Each cut has several variants (including one option with "unsanforized" or RAW denim which will shrink when wet and alter the pre-wash measurements on the website by about 3% roughly), so crunch the numbers in the measurements table to find the numbers you need/want. One of these two cuts should fit you better from the thigh down than the 634S. Ask any questions you have before you buy.
Here's how IH measure bottoms:

The thigh on the 634S is not massive. Have you checked how we measure, which is the way the Japanese jeans companies measure, as this is a true measure of the thigh measurement.

I need to get some new jeans. I keep going back and forth between these, the SEXFHXRJB15s, and the 634S-RAW. Someone please convince me that these would be the best option considering I thought my busters were tight and the fh/rjb's have a smaller thigh…...

Yeah that's what I was thinking….I actually liked the fit on a size 31 so a 30 should be perfect. Just need someone to grab my ROYs until I can pull the trigger.

ROY has a really shitty resale appeal for some reason. (Unless you're a size 33+) When I was still buying jeans three sizes too small–thanks, sufu--I'd have to let go near-new pairs of ROYs for between $150-175. And, unfortunately for you, it seems as though the 04 is going to be his go-to denim, meaning you'll likely see restocks.
Unless you absolutely need the money, I 'd recommend being patient and waiting until you're happy with an offer.

Many thanks for the reply and info. Having looked at how the thigh width is measured, the 634s do compare to a couple of pairs I already have so they are probably not quite as baggy as I first thought. Before go ahead with an order though, could I ask about the fit around the front pocket area, only I don't see any measurements for this. They look pretty tight in the photos I've seen, can you get your hands in them ok? How comfortable are they to sit down in?
Thanks again.
