IH-634S - 21oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
just wondering, do you guys soak your 634S when you first got it? and if i got it hemmed with G, do i have to soak the hem to let the "new" stiches "settle-in or bed-in"? sorry im kinda confused. some say don't soak to make use of the starch for creasing while others say soak to allow the denim to "settle-in or bed-in". cheers!
-
no need even though I got the length altered? awesome! thank you G.
-
great! I shall wear em' later and thrash the shit outta this beauty.
somehow its not as stiff as the 666S despite being heavier. makes it less daunting to wear it. -
I soaked mine before the first wear, just because that's what I do with all my jeans. Didn't make a bit of difference. I won't do that again, since it's basically a waste of time.
-
waste of time? phew! this forum is just awesome. teaches us and allow us to learn from others. both mistakes and good stuffs.

1st wash - no idea how much I've worn them - maybe 5ish months.

Hi CLJ! What do you mean by best (e.g. fit, denim character, fading properties)? Also, what is your preference: a straight fit, slim fight, tight fit? Have you ever heard of the overdying process? I'm sure that you will find your pair and wish you good luck.

Hey all. I'm looking to pull the trigger on what will be my first IH jeans. I'm wondering if the IH634S is the best starting point?
The IH-634S is the patriarch of all Ironheart jeans. It's a classic fit, with a denim unlike most on the market. It's also the most versatile, suitable for work and play
There's a reason why it's the flagship model

What I was trying to say was is this model going to give me the best impression of the brand experience and further my interest in it. Straight fit works best for me and I've done the measurements as per the guide here. I'm a big build and the tapered/slim type cuts look a bit silly on me. I've done a bit of reading today and I think I'm starting to get a handle on things. Never hurts to seek wisdom and you guys confirm my thoughts. Waiting on the tax return now!

I didn't start with the 634s, and I wish I had now that I have them. I can see myself only buying them for years to come. I would certainly recommend these, especially if you have a bigger build like you suggest!

Yes. It's the flagship cut in the flagship denim. If any single item summarizes Iron Heart, it's the 634S.

Yes. This is a classic straight cut.

Yes. Then you should stick with the 634S. All the other models are slimmer in some way.
