lol glad you like them dude! It'd be great to see some fit pics when you're able.

I posted this pic in the WAYWT thread but wanted to post here too. I really love the 634. Not too loose and not too slim. As soon as I bought these I found a pair of like new 634-B on eBay and got them too.

I can see why you like them, @Palmer: they look great on you. Nice to be able to breathe a bit with a straighter cut, huh?

Thanks dude!

Hi.
Any word on when a restock of these in the larger sizes will be?
Thanks!

January I am afraid.

A rather obvious question that has been asked many times, I'm sure:
Will shrink 1" with wash and and will stretch 1" with wear means that, in the end, I get what I see in terms of the stated waist measurements?
-
@cityofdelusion they’ll stretch out beyond initial measurements despite the shrinkage, so I’d treat it like any other pair but just be prepared for a little bit of initial discomfort

Got my first pair of 25s today and the denim is unquestionably impressive. I'm going to enjoy their evolution over the years. What I don't get though is why make a pair of jeans that you can't button up. Just…. smh. And sure, I know the heavy fabric eventually breaks in and the holes open up and won't require the same crazy amount of work just to button up the fly, but it still seems like there should be a better way.
-
@Joe_M they will button up, it just takes a bit of perseverance. They’re usually fine after a couple of days. What I tend to do is get a pair of needle nosed pliers and shove them in the holes, give them a few twists applying a bit of pressure, helps loosen them up. Other than that I recommend buttoning and unbuttoning them (quite roughly) a few times whilst you’re not wearing them. You’ll be fine
-
Hi @LewisStonehouse, thanks for the suggestions. As you said, they'll be fine eventually. Still though, it's worth wondering if there could be a design modification for the heavyweight items that could eliminate the need for a toolbox or black and blue fingers.

I guess the solutions would be lighter denim, smaller buttons or bigger holes. There’s plenty of options for lighter denim, and if you made the buttons smaller/holes bigger they would still ease pretty quickly and you’d be at risk of a pair of jeans that like to unbutton themselves all the time, which is less desirable. I think the main point is that getting into such an extreme weight of denim will always require a bit of initial discomfort, but that pays off in an epic pair that fades like nothing else. That initial discomfort isn’t for everyone, and there’s plenty of denims that require less perseverance over the initial few days (or tinkering). I guess what I’m saying is it just comes with the territory
