IH-634SR - 21/23oz 5 Year Anniversary Straight Cut

[that_was_easy]

Fucking epic SR's right there.

After handling (and trying on)my pair RAW I can't imagine anybody unstable enough to wear these like that.  They're about as pliable as corrugated steel.  Got them soaked though, according to Haraki's instructions and saw zero fading/abrasion from the inside-out machine wash, which was in slightly warmer water than the initial soak.  They shrunk well, or at least enough to prevent me from buttoning the final button whilst midly inebriated last night.

Very pleased to have, apparently, sized correctly (same as 634) and can't wait to get into these tonight and feel that back of the knee burn!

Glad I read through this thread again too, cf. new avatar.  Plus, the 'turning a baseball bat inside-out" comment is maybe the funniest comment in IHF history.

HAHA,@DENIM:

Giles you are right these Jeans are NO joke!!!!!!!!

Had the same thought upon removing them from the package. Flat out absurdly over designed! Love it.

Nice work, Kybosh

^ thanks,

Congrats DENIM SAILOR. On the bad side of things you are now completely ruined when it comes to wearing anything else haha,

Here is the post wash.  I'm pretty surprised these took a wash as well as they did.


what a tape measure will do over 6 months,

I've got 5 cords of wood waiting to be split this weekend, should have waited a little longer to wash them.

Can anyone tell me how much these jeans shrink in the thigh.

[Giles]

Horizontal shrinkage is uniform, if the waist measures 30 and shrinks to 29 then the thigh will shrink to 14.5 if it measures 15.  G

Cheers Giles.

[Giles]

Same  with vertical shrinkage, just work out the %age shrinkage in the inseam and apply to other vertical measurements.  G

Thanks again, they're a bit too wide for me I've got skinny legs.

Maybe one day there will be another cut with this 23oz denim? Slimmer cut, let's hope. Haha.

[Giles]

No there won't be I am afraid.  But the 18oz is very similar and is raw too.

[Guest]

is the cut of 18oz jeans hammered out yet or still on the drawing board?

[Giles]

It's hammered out.  It is the Devil's Fit - IH-666S and IH-666Sod.  They are being made at the moment.  But is will not be the last jean to be made out of this denim - the denim is too good to not use again (and again)…...
