IH-461S - 21oz Selvedge Denim Boot Cut Jeans - Indigo

[Max Power]

well, if you put them on damp the stretching will be faster. But the long time effect stays the same.

Just washed them for the first time. Hung dry until slightly damp. Put them on while still a little damp. They basically shrunk back to the original size when I got them. No loss of indigo really.

some free apps like gorillacam have a self timer.  Not sure why it's not built in.  I was hoping ios5 had a timer

@Laubi:

[Laubi]

Will do better fit-pics in the future. I promise.

I have to say my 461 non selvage have been good to me.

[elclintor]

whoa! those look great.

[Seul]

Those look fab… Are you elclintor's nephew or something?.. Cause we all know he's capable of walking across seas, you seem to be able to vertically cross mountains...

I think these jeans are really underestimated, what do you think? They are on my radar since a long time as I like a little flare and spotted some pairs at VMC some weeks ago…I have so many jeans...who cares I have to get them you never have enough jeans...I'll keep you posted

[gratefulmelon]

I totally agree with them being understated.  I have so so many pairs of straight and tapered cuts.  It's nice to change it up with a bootcut every now and then.  They have become my go-to jeans for when I'm riding my Harley.  I did size up due to the thigh measurements and they fit great.  Mine are not the 461S but the 461.

[davito]

thank you for your review gratefulmelon, much appreciated…now I am lusting even more :)...but I have to wait a little...hehehe

[injunjack]

and these are absofeckinlutely best without the S. soooo soft. Also my riding jawns quite often.  Bootcuts 4eveh

[davito]

thank you again gratefulmelon and ij for your inputs. I had already the chance to reserve a 461 without S sized up 1 so I will cop definitely within the next few days they felt really really good so my heart said: you neeeeeeed hahaha my closet explodes…;)

I was introduced to IH through the 461S.  These jeans are still my favourite IH product and get more wear than anything else in my closet.  I've got a couple of pairs!  Highly recommended and a hugely underrated cut, in my opinion.

[davito]

Thx for your feedback, still on the hunt but with all my ih pants its a bit difficult to wear all of em. But they will come

[Qinhan]

One thing to be careful of: the low-rise of these jeans means that when you bend over there's serious danger of showing "plumbers crack". 

[Qinhan]

This thread (and the 461S) are seriously under-appreciated so here's a fit pic to get things going.

These are my go to jeans for work - super comfortable and much loved.  Hope this helps with your decision making Davito.

[Qinhan]

Trying (and failing) to capture the evo on these jeans.  I really need to take a couple of lessons from Jesse Lirola on how to operate an SLR.

<–----- BTW: fit pics of these jeans on the previous page!

Question on sizing - if size 34 in 634-XHS fits well, what size should one go for in the 416S ? Thanks.

[gratefulmelon]

I would go by the thigh measurements.  I'm a 36 in 634s but opted to size up to a 38 in the 461 due to the thighs being rather fitted.
