Hello IH Peeps! It’s been a while, but felt the need to say, I just ordered the 21 oz 633’s. I had to try them out after beating up my 25 oz’s for over a year now! Cheers!!

[yuffington]

For all those concerned about my overdye pursuit.... I ended up trying on the 633 142od, just to figure out sizing. Liked them so much I bought them. Love them. Found the 14oz to be quite heavy feeling for the weight. Seemingly heavier than another pair of 15oz from another brand. Will this prevent me from buying 21od if they ever appear? Hell no! LOVE the midnight blue of the OD.....

@yuffington my 633 18oz OD def my favourite jeans I've ever owned. 633 cut is perfect for me, yet to try 777 but from what I can make out from sizing charts it's quite similar..

[yuffington]

@T4920 I've tried the 777. Rise is too low for me, and I found the thighs to be possibly a little tight. I've tried all the cuts except 666, and found the 633 is my best fit. Would love to try 666, but SE doesn't stock them. From the sound of it though, I might have similar issues in thighs.

Trying these 633 21oz from self edge do I need to soak them or just wear I brought them a bit longer to Acounnts for the shrinkage

[hajduk]

This fabric, 21oz, doesn’t shrink but rather will definitely stretch.

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@hajduk ok that’s a good thing but I did want to shrink the length from 28 inseam to 27.5

[yannis]

You will really have to soak them in really hot water, agitate the hell out of them, spin them in high speed and then throw them in a hot dryer and if you are lucky you will get 0.5 inch of the inseam. I do not recommend doing any of the above. You will be better off hemming them 0.5 inch shorter and not screw up the fabric

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@yannis ok I thought because there raw I should soak but I dong mind wearing from raw

[yannis]

The 21oz is sanforized and once washed. It's very difficult to shrink any further as almost all shrinkage has been done.

[yannis]

You can soak them. Nothing wrong with that. Just don't expect any shrinkage just from a soak. Lots of people soak their jeans to get the creases set.

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@yannis right I’m not going to soak them

[Mindfulbiscuit]

Received the 633 21oz today from self edge and yeah the fit is spot on size 32 measured the same as my 634 32 does have taper but not as extreme as I thought I chain stitched inseam 28 and hems around 7.5 will put some fit pictures soon

[Mindfulbiscuit]

Here a couple pictures even though the waist is not snug the rise is perfect so I couldn’t size down

[Perpetual_beta]

size down? they look too tight right now (whole pelvic area under stress), but should be good since they will give about an inch.

666 won't work because of thighs. 888 you likely won't like because of rise.

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@Perpetual_beta to be honest the 666 I usually size up to 33 tag because the thigh is so tight and low rise and to be honest the 888 our the perfect fit in a 32 and I love the longer rise and thigh and taper,the 633 reminds me of the 888 taper and the 634 these our quit spacious in the waist area pelvic area isn’t tight our uncomfortable maybe the just look it

[m4xime]

@Mindfulbiscuit What do you see as the difference between the 888 and 633?

[yannis]

@Mindfulbiscuit..on paper the difference between the 633 and 888 will be the rise, with the 888 having a higher back rise and maybe slightly higher front rise and the taper that in the 888 it starts at mid thigh vs the 633 that starts at the knee. Again I said theoretically because I do not not own a 633. I have 634's and 888's. The 633 it suppose to be a 634 with a taper starting at the knee to hem.

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@m4xime more taper from the knee on the 888 and also longer rise on the 888,to me very much a 633 is a 634 with a nice taper you only get the stronger taper if the hem is not hemmed
