I wish you had taken the specs when it was raw…

There's always a minor difference of size specs on paper and real product - and depending on the water itself every soak will turn out a bit different..

what matters is that it fits now....

All good! Loving it. Been wearing it since it dried out two days ago.

Nope. Not for me. I Have 3 SE Collabs. More than plenty. Just wanted to inform everyone if the had not already seen it. Hopefully someone with grab them so we can see them in action. I have my sights set on more important things…

Oh yeah Lando like what?  Feel free to post in general announcements.

TFH Z3005 or TFH 1005?
Please help me decide, I want to buy second pair of jeans to rotate with 634sr in coming summer. Free Bandana is nice and 14.5 oz denim probably better 16 oz in summer, but I can’t stand zipper fly. Or 16oz not that much heavier? Or zipper not that bad as I think?
What to do?  ???

[Beatle]

The 16oz is a nice denim..I'd go for those, for sure..

[ricochet]

Could you go more in details please Beatle?
/ find comfy armchair and close my eyes/
634sr is my first pair of proper Japanese denim and I got nothing to compare really. I don’t want to be greedy (as usual hehe) and suffer in 16oz in summer and at the same time scared by the bloody zipper.
Atm in 634sr when I wear them is like working out in gym lol. Running up the stairs and skipping one step in underground is a bit of a challenge.

[Beatle]

well - it will be super nice and hairy after the initial soak - it has a super high potential for contrast fades and vertical falling, it feels a bit rougher than the 14,5 oz 3xxx they use for the 3001 7380 and stuff –super dark indigo - and I don´t find them too hot for in the summer

[Giles]

I have both the 3005 (not the Z, but the cut and the denim is the same) and the 1005.  Marginal difference in the feel of the denim.  Both feel like gauze compared to the 634SR!

[Beatle]

Gauze …lol...

I wouldn´t go that far. Once worn in a lot softer and lighter - but it´s still a substantial denim

I have several pairs of the 1005, I rate them, the 16oz is a good weight.

[ricochet]

Well 1005 it is then, thanks for heads up. Will they shrink/stretch a lot?

[hectic]

I found that a moderately warm wash will lose a lot off the leg length. Waist is fairly consistent with tag size after wash. Not much stretch.

[ricochet]

thanks

[Giles]

The difference between wearing the 634SR and any other jean I have ever worn is that the fabric is so dense and tightly woven, it hardly breathes at all, so it retains masses of body warmth.  Honestly wearing a pair of 634S after a pair of 634SR will be a revalation, the 634S really do breathe a lot compared to the 634SR…G

Here me in the TFH jacket I adopted from Giles:

Yes, I did wear it out to dinner~
