Fwiw to those for measurements: 2 consecutive hot soaks for 1-2 hours ea. with subsequent light agitation. Really consistent shrinkage throughout fit. Congruent with others, .5" shrinkage on average throughout. For the first time experienced appreciable "white marks" (soaked inside out) and they essentially blended in with some rubbing with dry towel. No biggie.
First pair of raw selvedge I’ve hemmed. Always marveled at how well my 666 19Ls and the like fit and they happen to be a 34” inseam. This appears to really help with “knee break” and just a much better overall drape; took me awhile to get the courage to commit to a hem as I prefer a longer inseam/stacking and have a long inseam for 6’ height, however, with heavier weight the drape I’ve learned is exponentially better even going from 35.5” to 34” inseam. Wish I got all my jeans hemmed to 34”ish. And IMHO, the 634 fit is best represented via a slim fitting profile such as the 634 SEXIH13. Measurements on mine are almost identical for these to get an idea how they ‘ll fit.

RE: Ship John
Thanks for the sizing advice on the jacket fellas! Really helps. Awesome fit pics too. I likely would have gone for the Lg in long at 6' 165lbs. and apish arms. Reckon I'll stick with a Lg and a regular length. Paul
hooked me up with a Townes shirt in Lg and it fits really nice. The cuffs are pretty small but work for me. Shirt is dope. FWIW, I take a XL in most IH westerns.
