IH-634SV - The Vulcan - 18oz Raw Straight Cut Jean (With Hidden Pockets)
-
Bob, just to echo what everyone else is saying, if I were you, I would probably consider a cut that works better for your frame. The 634s, and 634-XHS are fuller through the thigh, and opening; and they are both offered in a 35. You can't go wrong with either pair. If you have your heart set on unsanforized denim, I believe TinMan may still have a pair of 21/23oz., unsanforized 634s (now extinct) in a waist 35 in the For Sale Thread. Brand new, unwashed, and unsoaked. PM him.

Appreciate all the help/suggestions, as far as the hem, ya I can see how trivial the difference can be. Sean, I was actually ponderin those for quite some time, but I think my mind is set on these Vulcans (either way I can't really go wrong) besides it might be time for me to get a more "modern fit" pair of jeans anyways, was just complaining how big/baggy my Regular Ralfs were.
MikeC- if you catch this, what's your height? Trying to figure out a correct inseam. I'm 5'9" and usually like to switch between a small cuff and uncuffed, dependent upon the footwear. I was thinking a pre-soak inseam of 33.5".

I am really jonesing for a pair of the Vulcans- I think these will be my summer denim (probably purchase in May), and I'll have to grab a pair of the 25 oz. next October for the winter… Love the cut and the details on these. I always do house projects over the summers- this summer I'm gutting out and rebuilding a bathroom- and I think the Vulcans might just be perfect for that!

IMHO this is the right cut for you Rafa!!!
I agree, just sent back those busters and keep these
-
They look a tad tight pre-soak on the thighs but that 18oz denim doesn't shrink that mich, right?
-
1,5" (hot soak) to 2" (machine wash) in length and the rest pretty much stretches out back to presoak state (my thighs also on a sz35 are 34cm post soak so thats .3 cm, not worth mentioning really) …

okay then it should work
-
thought i should share this fit as well…size 35, unsoaked:

Great pics - I need some 18oz Raw in my life, but am sitting tight for the 666s restock for now…

Nice score Finn, you will love the way they break in.
