I mostly wear mine to go out and dress up. Using my contest jeans at work. But y'all can count me in on the 23rd.

Does anyone want to trade a pair of ih634VS size 32 for a size 31x31?
Lightly worn. Soaked once.
Just to tight n the thighsJoshjames

It's unfortunate, but I'm going to have to sell my vulcans. They are 35x32.5. Hit me up, if interested.
They are too big for me.

Losing weight Mike? I hate seeing you give up those great looking Vulcans.

I've been wearing mine all summer, and I've lost a little weight, but I've stretched them out a bit as well. Today is my last day of tiling (thank God- I hate tiling), and the Vulcans will be getting their first wash tonight to get them clean, and to help shrink them back down just a tad. They're embedded with dust and sweat right now, so I'm looking forward to having them clean!

3 hot soaks, 3 washes, about 9 months wear off and on. I got a pair of 17 oz Samurai Wrangler-RRs to wear while it was really hot out. Since these cause some major bat wings on the hot days.
I had to give these a hot wash since my cat threw up on them. That'll teach me to leave 'em laying around…. It's a shame too, since the combs on the back are
only very light in color.Edit: very faint, you can hardly see them at all. Other than the back pockets, it seems like the front of these are fading faster than the back. I was pissed that I had to wash them again.
I'll take some more photos in the sun tomorrow if I get a chance. Getting dark now.

^Thanks. I just noticed an erroneous statement in my post though. The honeycombs are only faint. They are hardly showing at all.
The indigo looks great though- and the leg twist is crazy. Those are coming along well! The Vulcans are a hell of a pair of jeans.
It is awesome how luxurious and soft the denim is. These feel like some jersey knit sheets on the inside or a super soft flannel shirt. Sweatpants-esque maybe?

Coming up to 2 months of 5 days a week wear and these are still tough as nails. Waiting for that magical softness you're all talking about. They're starting to break in, in terms of shape, but still a very long way from soft. This is an enjoyable pair of jeans, the journey is the destination.

I've been wearing mine every day since May, and they finally broke somewhere around the first week of August, but they are still nowhere near as soft as my 21 oz. 634S. That being said, the denim has softened quite a bit from where it started. I really like these jeans- the fit is perfect, I love the extra pockets and the details, and the 18 oz denim is the bees knees. The fades are just barely starting to show, and the Vulcans put up with a summers worth of hard abuse without even flinching. I bet you're getting close to the point where they'll start cooperating- mine got soft in the seat first, and the softening seemed to correspond with losing the initial hairiness of the denim.
