RE: IH-634SII - 18oz Indigo/Indigo Straight Cut Jean
Slooooow day at work watching concrete dry. Had to give a wash over the weekend and got some more inseam shrinkage- started at 37 and now 35. My typical inseam is 32.
Trying out a stack which I don't usually do. I need to take some pics of the inside leg fades.

@grundletaint - a warm iron can help add some length back to the fabric.
Thanks for the tip. I'm pretty good with it. Before a single cuff was too big and a double cuff looked like a pinroll. The new length may save me from another hem because I'm trying out a bit of stacking now.

Hot soak pretty much covers it if you give it enough agitation…..
Crikey! My hemmed 634 was 36" post-hot soak. Had to cold wash due to some work nastiness and inseam is 35 now.

How's the shrinkage with a post-soak wash? Much more movement or does the hot soak pretty much cover it?

Where is Beatle anyhow? I've been gone awhile myself but never figured she'd be more or less inactive.

This thread seems to generate more activity than the 634 thread.
Anybody else have comically blue smurf legs after wearing the double indigo? I've already ruined a bath towel and yesterday I thought I was having a medical emergency.

May have to have an Austin gather for boozing sometime.
Any of y'all look at the inside of these after some wear yet? My legs were fucking blue the last 2 days and the water in the shower looked like I had soaked a pair in it. I think the inside may end up fading as well as the outside.

I wish I had a reason to move to Santa Fe. Love it there. We have a place in Ruidoso and try to get up as often as possible.
I need to stop drinking beer for a while…

Bluebonnet/Lamar but hopefully not for much longer because they are cramming too many people into this area and everything is a PITA now.

Nice to see another person from Austin around here, jeans look like they fit well!
Thanks. What part of town?
Lunch break boredom shot. I don't normally cuff but I may keep this double, kinda liking it.

Killer fit @grundletaint !
Gracias. I've always had my eye on the 634 and never pulled the trigger. The journey begins tomorrow with 15 yards of mulch. And it will be 80.

Fuckin a it is. I picked these up in the selling forum, tagged 33 and hemmed to post-soak 36. I'm not sure if I'll bother hemming to my actual inseam of 32 or not. If I do, it may be this summer when I can't wear them as much. Until then, wabi sabi, I suppose.

You're right down the way from me. I was working out in lakeway yesterday and it was 75. Today was 50. I should have my pair just in time to start a new project on Monday when it will be fucking 80+.

Love the look of these. Jumping on the bus! Haven't had the 634 cut before and looking forward to it.
