634B&SRAW - 16oz Loomstate Indigo Selvedge Straight Cut
-
Wore these yesterday and I really like them. I got a little leg twist, but I'm actually a fan of it.
I'll get a couple of pictures up this weekend.

Try the 634S-14 or 634N. I know they are not loomstate, but the denim in each case is lovely…....

Thanks Giles! How high is the contrast fading on them? Higher than XHS? As high as PBJ? Are the any pics out there?
I'd appreciate any feedback from anyone with some insight into those denims. Sorry for posting the question in this thread but I was already here so..

Giles currently has the most faded pair of jeans in the 14oz denim, he's posted pics in either the 666S-14 thread or the regular 14oz denim thread. I can tell you from personal experience that the 14oz denim is awesome, but it's sanforized, not loomstate. Wonderful denim though.

Thanks again, Giles. I was really surprised the natural indigo seems to fade as well as it does.
That said, I've pretty much convinced myself that I have to get these B&SRAWs. I just have one final question for my peace of mind.
Will IH be releasing any other loomstate denim in under 21oz in the foreseeable future?

I just placed my order. Thanks Giles!

Looks great! Love slim fitting 634 fits - cool 60s vibe for sure!

Thanks @Appfaff!
A couple notes on this denim:
-
There was ZERO indigo leak during/ after a 45 minute warm soak; the water was completely clear. (I'm curious as to why that is; I haven't seen that before).
-
The denim was so stiff after soak that they stood up on their own (with 1 finger to balance them).
-
Notwithstanding (2), they stretched over an inch in waist and softened considerably after only 1 wear.

@Ponyboy312 did you record shrinkage in waist and inseam?

@Giles Yes. I got 1" in length and 1.5" in waist from a 45 minute warm soak and drip dry. The waist stretched to preshrink after 1 wear.

Just a headsup, the forum link from product page for these jeans direct to 634-19L instead of the correct thread.
