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

^ thats a lot of love for a lot of pairs. def think that the 634s is a jean that is perfect cut for all weather. be it cold bay days with heavy fog rolling in from the pond or warm streaks of sunlight bursting through with that nice wind chill factor we get during summer ::) i've always really liked the diversity of that cut.

My 634S have stretched about 2 inches in the waist. This took about 20 wears.
The general advise is to wear the jeans as long as possible before washing. 6 months is probably the mean.
No need to wash/soak these before wearing since they are sanforized and will not shrink.

Mine haven't stretched much at all, but I didn't size down when I bought them. The 21 oz denim seems to accommodate as much or as little stress you put them under.
It doesn't really matter when you wash them either. Wash more = fade faster. If you want to keep them darker, don't wash as often. They tighten up just a bit when you wash but ease out again within a day or 2

Hi guys, I have a question of the IH-634S jeans. I recently bought a pair and they were about 1inch or so too small to button up. Any ideas on how to stretch it? Also when should one do the first wash? Thanks
You could get one of those stretchers at the home improvement store. But the most important thing is to stretch them after washing (preferably cold) and to hang dry them while still stretching the waist from time to time. You will gain an inch pretty soon. Is there absolutely no chance you can button them? Meaning even with effort there is still an inch left? If so, they are in fact too small. Exchange them. If you can still button them with a little effort that's the best way to stretch them, even if it's uncomfortable. I am not a 634S expert but I think I read they will stretch 1.5 inches in the waist. Not sure if that makes it that much better that they will be comfortable. Giles will certainly help you answer that question more precisely. And welcome to the IH forum!

They are definitely a straight fit. I could have gone with size 31 or 32 but chose 31 since the legs were a bit slimmer. The top block was really tight for a few weeks but stretched out for a perfect fit.

Perfect fit Dr.! Seul you will end up loving this jean when you finally decide to grab a pair.
