Same denim….

Nothing too dramatic but they just had their 5 month anniversary so I figured a pic was due. They usually get worn about 4 days a week, but since I wear a uniform at work their time is limited. 2 hot soaks and one cold wash.
-
anyone here skip the initial soak?
don't do that!!! You need the soak to set the stitching. Without the soak they will not be as durable

Anyone else here hate waiting for pay checks? I can't wait to order these. These seem like the perfect jeans to me- raw, with all of the amazing fading properties that carries, lighter weight for summer, extra pockets, a bad ass leather tab, and the 634 cut… these will be mine, and I'm gonna beat the hell outa them...

Mike,
every time I see your pair, I want them more. -
Not yet, they are not. They are selling slower than we expected so we may decide to kill them off, but that decision has not yet been made.
I think if these were remade without the leather detail on the pocket they would sell much better… I just tried these on at Selfe Edge and everything about them was fantastic. I went with the 634s, because I just couldn't get over the leather..... The rest of the details were exquisite, loved the 18 0z denim and the muted pocket detail.

I think the patch is cool. It's just not for me and I can only speak for myself.. The patch might not even be the problem for others, it just was for me. I don't mean to sound like I'm hating on the patch. I just don't think anyone would "not'' buy these because it didn't have that leather patch. All of the hidden details are such gems and the overall fit is fantastic. IT would be a shame if it got killed off.

I still might buy them

I love the jeans - love the 634 cut in the 18 oz - love the stealth stitching
- but I wouldn't shed any tears if the pocket patch disappeared. don't hate it - don't love it. perhaps if i did "real" work for a living, vs. sit on my ass most of the time i might appreciate it more - if it had real function for me… -

I agree with you. I love my pair of Vulcans, but I do wish the leather triangle wasn't there. It's probably the only thing that stops them being my perfect pair. I know it sounds a bit petty, but these small features can just make the difference. For me it's purely an issue of aesthetics, since I don't use the jeans as "work" jeans.
It would be interesting to have a poll to find the proportion of people for/against it.
