@Kasi said in IH-634-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo:
Hate high rise.
Me too. I wear my jeans quite low and always had too much fabric between my legs, even with like a LeanDean Nudie which is supposedly mid rise, until I found the 777 cut. Even though I must say the IronHeart Mid Rise like the 634, or 666 are great as well.
I must say I’ve never had any problems with neither my 777-XHS nor my 777-XHSib. But maybe I was just lucky with the buttonholes. After all the jeans are handmade so no hole is created equal I guess. I still have major issues with one buttonhole in my trucker 526PJ that I still struggle to button up even after two years.
Thnx @flannel-slut 
… guess the loose fit just takes a little time to get used to, but they’re definitely extremely comfortable that’s for sure.
I still don’t understand if there is a difference between the 634S-UHR and the RAW, if there is any at all. Maybe just a rebranding?
By the way these I got for 134 € that’s about $146 … I love our (ebay-) Kleinanzeigen here in Germany. This is the fifth pair I was able to buy there and all of them were in great conditions.
@flannel-slut I took your advice and gave them the RAW treatment with a two hour soak and 30° wash afterwards. The 634SR were a little too loose in the waist anyway so I was hoping for a bit of shrinkage. And I must say … they turned out to be perfect. After 5 years of wearing 777s I need to get used to the more loose and roomy look, but they actually are extremely comfortable. The length also turned out perfectly to be able to wear them without a cuff if I feel like it.
@popvulture I noticed that there was a batch in 2011 that was made out of the 21/23 RAW denim which had this patch. That’s why I also edited my post already. But thnx for your help 
@flannel-slut now that I’m writing this … these are the 634S-RAW not the UHR. What’s the difference between these two models?
@flannel-slut that sounds pretty reasonable. I was looking at the images again and the patch actually looks like it’s seen some water. The leather doesn’t look that bright anymore. The jean is in pretty mint condition judging from the pictures.
I was just able to pull the trigger on a 634 UHR on ebay and the guy that sold them doesn’t know if they were soaked/washed already. He had bought them on ebay also but they were hemmed, which the previous seller didn’t point out and they were too short for him. Wondering how I could tell if they were soaked/washed before already like they’re supposed to?
@seven-k Yes, I've noticed that too. Looking at the measurements there's slight differences, but I'm sure other factors come into play like denim weight and inseam length/hemming.
Sure … but on the other hand a little wider actually isn‘t that bad for warmer temperatures I think.
@RoxRocks86 totally agree with the greenish cast 
… and the poser skatergirl style is great for the summer time
Just wondering do you also think that the 14 Oz 777s appears to be wider in the leg compared to the 21 Oz? Haven‘t compared the measurements on the website yet but my 31" 14OD seem as wide as my 32" 21 and 25 Oz. Maybe that‘s due to the 14 Oz not going to stretch like the other denims do and the cut of the 14 Oz is the actual real cut of the jeans?
From a wearers standpoint the mad black appears as a regular pair of black denim, but these pics tell a different story. Electric blues on the first signs of knee fades coming in and in the sun at different angles the various hues shine thru.
It‘s almost like they are overdyed Indigo/Blacks … interesting. The fades are awesome coming in like that though.
@RoxRocks86 awesome choice for warmer temperatures. I have the 14ODs, they didn‘t have the Mad Blacks just yet. Think they are even cooler.
Guess Indigo Proof will get some more work to do very soon
@Filthy oh that is very kind of you. May I ask where you are from?
They are similar but not identical, the pattern has been adjusted quite drastically for the BS69xSOP420 compared to the V&S collab pair (the waist was way too big compared to the tag size on the V&S model amongst other things)
Okay I see … thnx Alex 
Found these on ebay and I was wondering if that is the same as the "SBG Berkeley Supply x Snake Oil Provisions Collab" just with a collaboration with a German store?
@RoxRocks86 okay I see … very nice ... Indigo Proof really does an awesome job!
@RoxRocks86 the Supacuff before alteration is hilarious … that is an awesome alteration job they are doing. Can‘t really tell on the pictures but do they keep the selvage altering the jeans?
