I will add some documentation for anyone interested in the stretch on these.
Waist measurement after first wash 31”
After around 6 hours of very uncomfortable wear mostly sitting/driving 31.75”
After wetting waistband and wearing til dry 33” -
@Memphisakers hot damn, son!!! Good work on that! Bet they feel great now!!
-
Stoked, @Memphisakers! They look a helluva a lot better on you than they did me! Looks like you got a fair amount of stretch on that waist, too! Glad everything worked out, my dude.

@Memphisakers like I have said before, I'm stoked another member found a pair out there. Are you planning on wearing them as your daily drivers? I am just now seeing noticeable fading on my pair at 105 wears. Have you noticed the "velvety" nature to the warp? When I swipe my hand downwards, I see the fade progress, but when I swipe my hand upwards, towards the waist, the fades nearly disappear and turn black again. It's strange and unlike other IH denim I have tried out.

It's the single-most unique IH fabric I've come across. Nothing else really compares, and even though it shares some of the same treatment of the standard OD, it's totally distinct.
Indigo hues, smokey grays, little pops of burgundy, and black as night. Just badass.
I'd kill for a re-run in the 634, but alas...

Couldn’t agree more

@Oaktavia I am really grateful to have found a pair!! I’m gonna try to use those as my primary black pair and the 666 XHS I got from Pal as my primary indigo pair all winter. So more or less my daily drivers. I did notice the velvety nature of the fabric!! It is VERY cool!!! I like to draw pictures in it
If you look at the inner thigh area in top picture in my last post, it almost looks like wool… Crazy neppy. I’ve also noticed the areas that usually fade first are kinda slick looking like well worn SBG. Very unique fabric for sure. -
@nonikes I appreciate it bro… Very grateful to have them!! I’m gonna beat um up

I spent a lot of time hiding from the heat indoors with air conditioning. I feel like these are the slowest and must stubborn jeans IH has out. Borderline non-fading...almost. Wearing them today at 123 wears.

@sabergirl hell yeah...the fades are like velvet
-
@Oaktavia how are they doing
?
