@injunjack:

ahem…..

the cuffed lenght is now approx what you like, right, The cuff is just too wide.

Haven't said this in ages, but get them hemmed so that you'll have max. 2" cuff.

The cuffed length is much too long, reckon I will probably get 3" off and then hopefully after the whiskers set in behind the knee the cuff should be 2". But you are correct in saying that I have previously mentioned that I thought the 634s might be too wide at the hem. Ill throw up some more garden pics, when I get the inseam sorted.  Thanks for the input guys

Maybe 3"? 

Hi everyone,

Got my 32" 634's in the post today and could not be happier with the jeans. I was worried that the thighs might be too tight on the 32" but I think they are perfect. Anyway, here are some fit pics. Going to get the inseam shortened by about 2" I reckon, that should leave a decent cuff and enough slack for some nice whiskers behind the knees. What you guys think, is 2 inches a good call?

Very excited about these jeans, thanks Giles for great customer service and ridiculously quick shipping (less than 48 hours to Ireland). IH has a new life customer Stay tuned for future fade pics.  .

Hey everybody,

Not sure if this is the correct place to post or not, but just going to throw up some pictures of a 30" pair of jeans (oneculture's) that are heading into retirement. They are just too small, the crotch keeps blowing out..

So they were worn for approx 13 months over a year and a half I reckon. Enjoy. 

@davito:

I am not a fan of tapering an existing cut too but to each his/her own

This is my size 30 hemmed to approx 32.5 and worn cuffed

They are really nice, hopefully mine will fit like that, but the hem on those starts at 8" and the 32" will have 8.8". So I reckon they wont look as slim at the hem as yours.

@Snowy:

whlrb, 100% in WAYWT, below are 2 I found through my collection;

Awesome pics. Now, just have to wait for more stock in the 32".

@Bluegrass:

Well make sure it's a REALLY good tailor if you are gonna mess with em - but might want to look at other cuts if you want a smaller hem (i.e. 555). I agree with MC, although I know some people have had luck with tailoring…

Yeah was looking at a guy called the Denim doctor from Uk, he looks legit enough. I would never get my thighs into the 555s, unless I went for a 35 or 36" waist.

@Snowy:

I spend all summer in birkies and the 634S. It's a grand look indeed. I've had no need to taper. Let me know if you want to be flooded with images of 634S+Birkenstocks, there's quite a few back earlier in the WAYWT back around Jan 2013.

Awesome, I'll have a good root. Are they in the general WAYWT or the boot/shoe thread?
Thanks. 

@grandmasterben:

Yes, it's definitely not a bad cut by any means. You could have them tapered if you wanted to as well, but you might find you don't even need to. It really depends on your footwear about how large the hem looks.

I pretty much Winter in Iron rangers and any warmish days i'm in Desert Boots, so both of those should be fine. Summer in birkenstocks might look a bit off but sure i'll just cuff em higher and should be grand.

I saw earlier in the thread that people have got them tapered and the results looked good. Do jeans have to be tapered on the selvedge side or is it possible to get them tapered on the inside seam?

Thanks for input btw.

@grandmasterben:

I think that a 32 in the 634s is probably the size you would want. The 21 oz denim is pretty easy to stretch and very forgiving. You should also note that in that size the hem is about an inch larger than your ideal…

Thanks for help, yeah I know that the 634's will be more roomy down around the ankles, but from some fit pics they look almost tapered and if I really want them tapered, might just pop in to the tailor and get then tapered a bit from the knee, and forsake cuffing them. Actually, can they be tapered from the inside seam so I can keep the lovely selvedge.

Hi everybody,

New to this forum and very excited about my first pair of 634s. Hopefully going to get a pair of 32"s as soon as they are back in stock. Bought my first pair of real jeans (12oz oneculture's) after chancing upon the denim debate around 3 years ago. My waist measured with tape was 33" and ended up pulling the trigger on 30" pair, which in hindsight, were much too small, mainly in the thighs. I am on the motorbike most days commuting so with the tight thighs, the crotch blew out numerous times and was repaired numerous times+1. Nevertheless, I soldiered on for around a year, before I came to my senses and said "these jeans are too tight".

Anyway boring anecdote over, I'm ready to jump back in the saddle with a new pair of real jeans. I am quite small at approx 170cm/70kg and generally favour jeans that have a bit of a taper, but with my thighs I think I need to at least give a decent pair of straight cuts a chance.

I tried on all my different pairs of jeans and took measurements. Below is measurement spectrum from these pairs, where my ideal fit would be somewhere near or between the following:

Waist:      16 5/8" snug fit
Fr. Rise:  10-11"
Bk. Rise:  14.5 - 15"
Thigh:      12.5" probably as tight as I can go, ideally closer to 13" would be better.
Knee:      8.8"
Hem:      7 1/4 - 8"

Using my thighs as the limiting measurement, I reckon I need at least the 32". From reading most of this thread, sizing down to the 32" doesn't seem like a bad idea. Does this make any sense? Should I go for the 32" when my true waist is 33.5"?

Also, just wondering roughly when there will be 32" waists back in stock?

Thanks in advance.
