Self Edge SF, NY, LA, PDX, MX, & ATX
-
I think it will take a soak and 20+ wears for this denim to get in line. It's super rigid and tough. I wouldn't go off the Self Edge fit pics like Chris said, since these are loomstate. I'll have both on Saturday(I'll have to wait for the jeans to be hemmed first) and I'll try to take some pics.
The 301s fit exactly as expected with a pretty loose waist and fairly tapered leg. After they tighten up they will fit really well. As for the jacket, I went with an XXXL because it was roomy and comfortable with an IH hoodie underneath. The XXL fit well but that is before a soak. I'll hot soak it just to get as much out of the arm length as I can. The body length was great. I'm glad they finally added an outer selvedge ID to the 301 cut.
I'm wondering what the true denim weight will be after it's soaked. If it's similar to the unsanforized 21/23oz denim I'd assume this will end up around 22oz?

The denim is rated at 20oz per square yard in its loomstate condition, the rate of shrinkage is about 6% on this jean, meaning it'll end up at ~21.2oz per square yard once hot soaked.

Thanks.

How to choose between these beauties? I find myself missing the signature IH pocket arcs, but I have to say these came out really well. That jacket looks so killer.

301s with visible selfedge on the outseam, I might just have to bite (I know its silly but it's a huge difference for me) Thanks for answering all questions so quickly kiya.

Definitely grabbing the 633s tomorrow, really excited for my first pair of IH denim.
This jean just has all the details I've been looking for.
And the cut looks spot on for someone like me with big thighs.Awesome man. I think you'll like the denim. And the 633 will fit you well. It's def a more flattering cut than the 634 for the larger thighed guys.

The denim sounds pretty awesome, plus I've been looking at a lot of denim with indigo arcs lately.
I was thinking about getting the SG 3105's (grey weft and LHT as well) but I'm always wanting to try out different brands.
Thinking I'm going TTS based on the measurements, should be spot on!
Also going to get the Stevenson loop wheeled pocket tees with my order, they look perfect for summer. -
Can't recommend the 3105 enough but IH has never even come close to letting me down and that's a fact.
-
Oh yeah–if I were in your shoes I'd go IH for sure.

And will be personally yet again when the 634s UHR hits

was intending on getting the 666 uhr's, but when i saw that they had adapted the pattern for the 301 to include the selvedge id at the hem it swayed me towards these. that and the fact that i have a $100 credit from selfedge that has be used towards jeans. the 301/555 style is my favorite style of cut anyways, so i cant say im too upset with how this has worked out. sad to be missing out on the UHR, but very interested in the potential of this new exciting denim
