IH-634-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo/Black
-
Thanks Sabergirl, there's some good points there. I'm probably just suffering from analysis paralysis
The waist on XHS will end up about on or just over published measurements after shrinkage and stretch has happened. I’d say a W35 is you best bet.

Approximately four months of daily wear, one cold soak, and one wash at 30C…

Alex they are coming into their own pretty quickly !
IB will be my next pair–-not sure which cut yet. I only have the 666S-21s so far, but I love this cut so much im still not sure what to try next -
Coming along nicely .

The color of these is pretty unbelievable

That comes from them trying to contain my ginormous child bearing hips and me sweating my ass off in these I think
-
These look super cool ! I think my next pair of 25oz is going to be the xhsib.

You won't be disappointed chef's kiss

They look amazing and the Filthy monster cuff looks good too [emoji109]

Great fit
Don't forget the post wash photos ! @bucheron -
I have been wearing these constantly since the wash and they are fading like crazy.
-
@Filthy dude seeing the way your 634 fades is making me want to try this cut out…I have the XHSib in 555 and I can barely squeeze into them anymore
But honestly I think if I size up and choose a loose cut like this would be fun as f to fade.Either 634 or the 888...but what I dig about the 634 are the big chonky cuff option/larger leg opening.
Anyways, fades are looking awesome man. One of my favorite faded examples of this denim.

Thanks, I have the 888 cut in this denim too. It's a lot tighter in the knee so the combs would develop faster. I kind of cheated with this pair by wearing them wet behind the knees and using starch. The 634 is a comfortable cut and the 888 is pretty comfortable too. But the leg opening is a lot smaller. The 888 is like the 634 and 555 mated.
This is the longest period of time I have ever worn a single pair of jeans. So I am looking forward to completley destroying this pair. The only problem is I am losing weight and they are getting pretty roomy now. So eventually I will have to look into going back to my 888 or a different cut or a smaller size. Believe it or not 5 years ago I fit in a size 33 555. I still have them and cringe when I think about it. When I was younger I used to wear women's jeans to get a fit that was that tight on me

I've heard of starching denim before, but have not looked much into it. Did you only starch the back of the knees or the whole pair? It's like a coating mixture of corn starch and water, correct? Or?
