IH-634S-UHR - 21/23oz Raw Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

@darbycrash No apology necessary, this thread will come back to life when the next restock hits!
I didn't in the end. I'm currently wearing my 14oz black/blacks mostly. I'll find out what they measure exactly then try a pair of UHRs and see where I'd aim for.
I have a pair of Tag 31 IH-555N which are just a shade under 32" exactly but, seemingly too tight with my current waist situation
I feel like I'm edging towards permanent Tag 32 territory unfortunately!

@Twistlock let the fun begin!

Any restock in sight?

I was just able to pull the trigger on a 634 UHR on ebay and the guy that sold them doesn’t know if they were soaked/washed already. He had bought them on ebay also but they were hemmed, which the previous seller didn’t point out and they were too short for him. Wondering how I could tell if they were soaked/washed before already like they’re supposed to?
-
@seven-k you could make a good guess looking along the hem/chainstich… if there is some “roping” going on, chances are they’ve been soaked. Either way, the indigo loss is very minimal w a soak, I would err on the side of caution and soak regardless.
-
@flannel-slut that sounds pretty reasonable. I was looking at the images again and the patch actually looks like it’s seen some water. The leather doesn’t look that bright anymore. The jean is in pretty mint condition judging from the pictures.
-
@flannel-slut now that I’m writing this … these are the 634S-RAW not the UHR. What’s the difference between these two models?
-
The most recent runs of UHR’s patches don’t look like that, but the older ones might’ve. Most of the phony stuff I’ve seen is pretty obvious though, and aside from the wording, patch thickness and everything else isn’t screaming fake to me.
-
@popvulture I noticed that there was a batch in 2011 that was made out of the 21/23 RAW denim which had this patch. That’s why I also edited my post already. But thnx for your help
-
Alright sweet! Glad to hear
-
@seven-k wow. Those are in outstanding condition!
In regards to having been soaked, the leather patch may not be a good barometer. The veg tan getting darker is most likely due to exposure to sunlight and/or oils. I’m still on team safe-n-soak
