634 minus 1 sounds good for some, but with the inseam we are going to get into the age old debate about it changing once you hem it, blah, blah meh.
That's not a debate for me. Cutting 2 inches off the bottom is only going to widen the opening an eighth of an inch or less. Not even worth worrying about.
Like you said- blah, blah, meh.
Do keep in mind that this is made of unsanforized denim, meaning the hem width will shrink about .3" after a hot soak.

Kiya, Is the new jacket cut the same as the OD modified III that you are currently selling? Just getting a sense of fit.
edit. Sorry, didn't see the measurements were posted until just now. I'll do my homework

Yep, the unsanforized aspect is why I'm wavering between size 33 and 34- trying to decide how the thigh is going to work out after shrinkage.

I'll have the jacket and 301 on Saturday. Gonna be some interesting fades.
-
^looking forward to seeing these
-
If only we had somebody who could properly photograph them!
Yea ditto man. I don't mean to be negative but those pics on the SE site tell me nothing. That bro is not wearing the 633 as they should be worn.
-
Think tigerpac was referring to the fact that urb is a photographer….
-
I'm just hating. Don't mind me
-
I think he's also wearing an unsoaked, unhemmed pair just for the product pics. That's not gonna give the most accurate impression of the jeans.

I think it will take a soak and 20+ wears for this denim to get in line. It's super rigid and tough. I wouldn't go off the Self Edge fit pics like Chris said, since these are loomstate. I'll have both on Saturday(I'll have to wait for the jeans to be hemmed first) and I'll try to take some pics.
The 301s fit exactly as expected with a pretty loose waist and fairly tapered leg. After they tighten up they will fit really well. As for the jacket, I went with an XXXL because it was roomy and comfortable with an IH hoodie underneath. The XXL fit well but that is before a soak. I'll hot soak it just to get as much out of the arm length as I can. The body length was great. I'm glad they finally added an outer selvedge ID to the 301 cut.
I'm wondering what the true denim weight will be after it's soaked. If it's similar to the unsanforized 21/23oz denim I'd assume this will end up around 22oz?

The denim is rated at 20oz per square yard in its loomstate condition, the rate of shrinkage is about 6% on this jean, meaning it'll end up at ~21.2oz per square yard once hot soaked.

Thanks.

How to choose between these beauties? I find myself missing the signature IH pocket arcs, but I have to say these came out really well. That jacket looks so killer.
-
301s with visible selfedge on the outseam, I might just have to bite (I know its silly but it's a huge difference for me) Thanks for answering all questions so quickly kiya.
-
Definitely grabbing the 633s tomorrow, really excited for my first pair of IH denim.
This jean just has all the details I've been looking for.
And the cut looks spot on for someone like me with big thighs.Awesome man. I think you'll like the denim. And the 633 will fit you well. It's def a more flattering cut than the 634 for the larger thighed guys.
-
The denim sounds pretty awesome, plus I've been looking at a lot of denim with indigo arcs lately.
I was thinking about getting the SG 3105's (grey weft and LHT as well) but I'm always wanting to try out different brands.
Thinking I'm going TTS based on the measurements, should be spot on!
Also going to get the Stevenson loop wheeled pocket tees with my order, they look perfect for summer. -
Can't recommend the 3105 enough but IH has never even come close to letting me down and that's a fact.
