IH-634S - 21oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

[jchang71]

thx jack! i was thinking bout the 40 but do IH jeans stretch in the waist? I'm a true 38 and I think they are that large in the waste due to me losing weight and skateboarding and doing other things in them. I also wear a belt to keep them up cuz there is a lot of slack in them.

so the 501 are loose on the waist? You should be able to get 2" stretch with some effort. I think more than that is pushing your luck.  I was going by the meas you gave, and assumed that they are good fit in the waist.

If your black 501's are loose on the waist, you need to figure out how much they are loose. If 40 is good, then I'd go for 40 as they won't stretch much, only what is needed…

chang, I have a pair of 40 waist, chainstitched to 31.5 if you wanna try a pair before buying a new one. I could let them go for $75

Chang, with Bagleys price you can't go wrong….if they're loose get new smaller pair.

Those look pretty good, and at $75?!?!  Not to mention those measurements appear to be exactly what you're looking for.  You'd be foolish not to jump on those.  I even considered it… but I'd have to wear 2 belts and a pair of suspenders to keep them up.

I was in your shoes about a year ago…now I'm 4 pair deep!

I read a post somewhere in the middle about these getting belt loops sewn into the waistband… whatever became of that, if anything?

[Giles]

Nothing yet.  It will get done at some point…..

I brought in some pairs for my coworker, who is sick of GAP jeans, and is the same waist size.

So he's looking through my jeans (33 634S, 34 634S, 34 634-XHS) and another coworker comes by, asks what's going on.  I tell him about the jeans, including the price, and why I brought them in.  He says "Dude, these 3 jeans, that's an iMac!  How can  you spend so much on denim?".  Then he stands there for a bit, looking at the well worn 33 634S.  "Hey, can I try these on?"

Fast-forward a few days.  He tells me his wife has okayed him for a pair

[Seul]

That's great stuff mate!..

[rocket]

nice story Paul and as always if people get over the "are you nuts to spend.." some are able to see there is a difference…

[Paul9221]

He's a soccer player, so he has the same problem finding jeans as me, with his big thighs.  He tried on the well worn-in 634S and he loved it.  He went on and on about how awesome his ass looked in the jeans, LOL

ok
