Nice work @ Jercules. Mine have about a year of wear and 1 wash

Here is my pair similar fades in the back pocket. Mine is the older v2 version but same fabric.

All feel different and have very different Characteristics. The 16oz slb is the most breathable. The 19 is a left hand twill and unsanforized. Its stiffer and more rigit with great fade pottential. The 14 oz is a nice all year weight. Then you have the 25oz heavy but softens up beautifully with wear and fades very nicely. You have the 18 with vintage fades, the 17oz with natural indigo. They all feel different, fade different so at the end of the day it is a matter of preference and variety.

My daily tool watch.

Some people have an elitist mentality. That true homage bs and cannot see 1 inch past their index fingure. Customers like that you can loose for a lot of trivial reasons. It's difficult to make everybody happy nor should you try. Stay true to your values and the right customer will always be there.

An easy test of mobility is the overhead squat. Load is not important. If you can overhead squat an empty bar with full depth, ample thoracic extension and heels on the ground you are generally in good shape. It will expose limitations at the upper back, hips and ankle.

My experience was different. I was expecting the 25oz 634 to be difficult to wear in the beginning and alot of forum members were having a hard time button them up. Never for me. They felt pretty comfy by day 2. My 634 leftie v2 still gives me hard time to button the top button after 2 years of wear. Its interesting how we all have our own personal experiences.

That looks great @MassiveThighs. Never go by tag size. Learn the measurements that fit you well and go by those. You will get consistent and better fit all the time and avoid all the back and forth hassle associated with returns.

Sizing down definitely fixes it. It happens to me also when the waist is slightly big and inhave to crank the belt. That makes it even worse.

The way the 19L fabric fades it's really special

They will be i bit more stubborn to relax in the begging but once they do they will be comfortable. They will always be stiffer than any 25oz or 21oz but not uncomfortable. The more you wear them the better they become and the fades are pretty unique. You made a great choice.

Is the fabric the same as the one used on the 634's DD?. I washed mine without knowing anything about marbling in the washing machine and it did not marble. Now I washed it cold and nonsense cycle. Not sure if that matters.

They are rad as feck @Oaktavia. I have a pair and they are my favorite cut.

@meltdown. You are going to be hard pressed to get any shrinkage out of the 21oz. It's sanforized and once washed. I mean washing it will not shrink it. I may tighten a little bit and then back to original measurements after 15 minutes of wear. The brake in process is very straight farward on the 21oz. Just wear them and they will soften more with time. They start pretty soft to begin with for a heavy fabric

@Go-For-Chill. Because the Iron Heart tutorial and the sizing charts corresponding to what the seller is posting so there is consistency across the board about sizing that minimizes mistakes. I have found that although thatbis the idea, some sellers still post incorrect measurements.

I just got home from the game. Awesome game and a Ravens win!!!!

Would like to see the 19oz leftie in an Ib version or double indigo. Just one cut preferably 634. I think they would be rad as hell.
