IH-634S-SBG - 21oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - SBG

Awesome. Thanks!

I might grab one of these. Was actually going to go for the 634 S 21, but this seems unique and I have never had a black denim from IH. Nice timing!

Sizing dilemma, need help. My current 634 S 21 pair (Tag size 31) that I have been wearing since starting this year has a waist size of 80 cm as I measured it the IH way. I have never washed this pair yet, just a few soaks. This SBG size chart seems to differ a little bit, the Tag size 32 has a waist of 80.3 cm which is close to the pair that I'm wearing. So given the fact that a soak would shrink the waist by some margin and expand back, I should go with Tag size 32. Correct?

Much better to ask for specific sizing advice at shop@ironheart.co.uk - or via live chat. The CS guy's priority is managing those channels.....

@AdamJ I've somehow gotten the time messed up — when do these go live GMT?
-
They do not show onnthe page at all
-
Ah there they are
-
Yes all good. I got a pair finally
-
Yep, same. Psyched.
-
Picked up a pair. I am really looking forward to these and am going to enter the Indigo Invitational with them.
-
Copped one as well!
-
Anybody with experience on those. Are they as soft as the regular 21oz to begin with or they feel more stiff?
-
@yannis super stiff. Not really like the 21oz at all IMO. I used to own a pair of the 8301s. Just copped a pair of the 888’s.
-
Thank you!

@yannis Based on a recent pair of 555S-SBG (and some yet unworn BS69xSOP420) I found them to be quite soft. Regular 21oz is perhaps a slight bit softer, but the SBG was very comfortable right from the first wear.
From my experience, which seem to correlate with what I've read around here, the reactive dyed weft makes things slightly stiffer, but not by a whole lot. I also felt that my XHSBB was stiffer from the start than XHS for instance. A bit hard to compare though, different cuts, different batches etc.
I also seem to remember reading that previous versions of SBG (which I haven't got personal experience with) were a bit stiffer than the current version. Some were also raw from what I recall.

Thank you also @JunkPants. So i should expect something similar to 21oz or slightly stiffer. Stiff don't bother me at all. It just makes a difference on hemming. I usually cut stiffer jeans longer as they don't drape as much.
