IH-634S-PD - Indigo 14oz Money Denim Straight Cut
-
Interesting to hear how much stretch and shrinkage you got out of them. I was expecting this denim to flex a lot less.
-
@Chris I was surprised too. They feel like they're wound pretty tight. The waist was a little loose at first so I used a belt right off. Still stretched an inch. I was actually quite happy they dropped to 36.5, I suspect they'll be at 37.5 again pretty quickly. I'm curious if others had similar results.
@Giles Thanks again for saving me from making a big mistake.
I'll continue to make occasional updates on these for anyone who may be interested.

Please do! Thanks.

I bought these just for the fact that I knew they weren't going to be reproduced and I had always wanted a 634 cut where I sized down, I've worn 31 and 32s the beetle buster cut and got these in a 30. I layed them on top of my 32 BB UHR and the looked almost exactly the same (except for the waist I'm guessing). I was going to start these, but I decided to break out a pair I've had in a box for the last 4 years, the sexdb19 a very sexy pair of jeans I've been waiting to do something with. So maybe in a couple years I'll break these out. Hope to see some good fades from other people.

Just wanted to post some updated pics. These were filthy so I gave them a wash. They have about six weeks of 5 day a week work wear. They really get white on high friction areas. I'm very happy with how they have evolved in a short period of time. To be fair a week of working wear is about equivalent to a month of casual wear for me. Here are the results.

Good to see some feedback already!
I picked up these again just to try on after being away from a month. My first thoughts where how soft the denim is.
The fit on me is amazing, the top block I dare say is perfect. The legs are a little wider than I have worn in previous years but nothing crazy… now to patiently wait for a year or two or four to wear them.

Cfk87, really dig the yen/yang back pocket effect.

Thanks @mikebarhoot
Those dots are an unintended consequence of using a little baby wallet with snaps. Instead of turning it around it's more comfortable to carry it with the snaps facing out. -
So I'm back in them today. They are tight but livable now. The waist and top block is perfect though.
This denim is incredible. The weave is mesmerizing, I think because the weft is such a small diameter it really makes the indigo pop on the side you can see the weave. Although for the same reason, I swear they feel like sandpaper on my thighs. My first impression on putting these on was that thought and that they were going to rub my thighs raw, we shall see. These also rival the darkest denims I have worn, even the 23oz, because the tight weave.
These are my new summer denim, wearing them with a pretty decent cuff.
It's good to be back in Iron Hearts. I wore some dry bones for the last few months that were natural indigo and hank dyed. While the fabric is stunning and beautiful, the build quality and features just weren't there and was something I have missed.
