Holy crap, snagged the last pair from the branch in Germany. My first 888 and XHS. I have some experience with stiff 25oz from another brand. Slightly intimidated with the different cut and bulk these guys will have but I know the hype is real for a reason. I've been planning on grabbing the new 555s but they've been pushed back a couple of times. I'm a sucker for tonal arcs so I pulled the trigger when I saw they still had a pair. Overall very excited to get to work on them.

I was wondering who bought that last size 40. Good snag!

Any word on a restock any time soon? @ShopatIronHeart

Is there any difference between the BSPIH25 and SEXIH25? @ShopatIronHeart

@dugafola i see these restocked on self edge. But they have a new code...but i think its essentially the same denim...

I saw that as well and have been meaning to ask the question about what the difference is between the BSPIH25 and SEXIH25

SE’s methodology for measuring these dimensions differs from IHUK. Look into those deets. The SBG and latest collab has higher rise compared to older 633 models…more akin to 888 now. better fit imho. good luck. i just got these in SBG too….excited to fade some black into grey!

Are they changing the rise on all their 633’s? Or was this something that was done solely on those 2 cuts as a “trial” per se?

Any update on when these will start being made again?

@yannis I appreciate the info, thank you!

eagerly awaiting the drop of these aswell! doing all sorts of math to make sure I get it right the first time ‍

recently sold off my 555xhsib and a pair of 555s that I sized too small on. so I have the extra funds ready for these! (and quite possibly another pair of wescos )

555 and 888 are quite different cuts. You can not have both of them fitting like a glove in the same size tag

How about compared to 634 sizing? I always gravitate back towards the 634, just get tired of the lower rear rise, need something slightly higher. Front rise is spot on. I usually wear a size 40.

Tried both the 666 in a 42 and 888 in a 40 and they were both a no go. 666 I didn’t mind the slim profile, but they have even less of a rear rise compared to the 634. 888 had way too much front rise for me, so they didn’t work either.

I notice the 555 has a lower front rise with a higher rear rise, which seems to be what i’m looking for. Measurements between the 555 and 634 in a size 40 are similar in the thigh and such, my concern is the knee down. I pretty much fill out a pair of 634’s in the top block. I could definitely do without the extra material from the knee down, without them being “too slim”. Basically is it worth giving the 555 a go in my 634 size?

For me my 666 UHR are slightly short in the rear rise, as they have less of a natural slope compared to my 633/634 XHS.

I was wearing a pair of 634S-B’s size 40, and they got a little tight in the waist so I purchased a 634 XHS size 42. I figured going up a few ounces justified a size up, to make the break in easier. Those fit great in the waist, everywhere else was way too baggy.

After asking on here the consensus was made that I either need a 634 size 40 with a larger waist measurement, or a slimmer cut size 42.

Purchased a pair of 666 UHR size 42 and they are basically “painted on”. The rear rise also doesn’t do it for me, as stated above. They are always sliding down, and they are by no means loose.

Currently i’m wearing a 633 XHS size 40 and they are great. They have a slightly larger waist measurement, without all that extra bagginess the 634 size 42 had.

Does the newest batch have the thread runoff on the sides similar to the wabash/cpo/denim shirts? The photo that was posted of the ombre next to the purple flannels appears to show a yellow thread hanging.

Hoping to get some help with sizing. I have a pair of 21oz 634 overdyed in a size 40 that I wore for the summer. Love them, but the waist has doubled over and basically stretched out in a bad way, and the crotch area is very “cross hatched”. I love the fit minus the waist. In reality they don’t have any extra material in the thigh/seat/crotch, hence why they are on the path to wearing out early. Here’s my dilemma:

I recently purchased a pair of XHS 634 in a size 42. The waist fits great, way better than the OD’s ever did, so I feel like I nailed it there. Everywhere else is way too baggy with more material than I care for.

If I hot soak these, is it possible that the thighs and other areas will shrink down to my liking? Is the better option finding a size 40 with a waist that measures on the larger side? Finally do I try a 633 or 666 cut in a 42?

@rnl the UHR's aren't in production yet.
This would suggest that they aren't going to be here until the end of the year at the earliest.

@xcesiv the most current update.

Thanks, I saw that and wasn’t sure if there was a newer update as that was from May. Thankfully the re-loved pair I just purchased will hold me for now!

Any word on when these will be restocked?

Also any word on a restock?

@neph93 said in IH-634S-B - 21oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Overdyed Indigo:

@Odin43 this was what made me wonder about the process.

It’s also a massive bonus for me, as I can get into a W34 in these, but a W34 in the OG IH-634-S would be too tight. At the waist and thigh.

It is worth knowing that the OD 21oz stretches even more quickly that the regular 21oz.

100% the truth right there. I picked up 2 pairs of jeans within the last 2 weeks, one being the 21oz overdyed. They definitely fit right on the money, compared to the indigo 634 where I could definitely go up a size.
