Congrats! You may want to warn your tailor to pick up some extra needles…
probably a good idea, I got a lot of Korean friends though so I'm sure one of their mom's can do it haha

Are the 634s belt loops sewn into the waist band like the 634sr?
The SExIH07 (including BK) and 634SR both have the belt loops sewn into the waistband, but the 634S (and S-B) do not. It appears that other than IH, most Japanese brands do not sew the belt loops into the waistband. I haven't seen it on any Samurais, SDAs, Sugar Canes, Onis, PBJs, or Eternals, for example.
The only other brands that I can think of seeing it on are Pace and Paul Smith Red Ear.

picked up my first pair of IH-634Ss this weekend at Self Edge

You would have to find out from G, but I agree I would love it. I have a feeling that Haraki-San has a reason why he chooses not to do it on them but I am just speculating…
So here is the reason that the belt loops are not sewn into the waist band of the 634S. When I tell you, you will not believe how obvious the answer is, I can't believe that any of us did not work it out for ourselves….. Haraki just has not got around to altering the pattern.
He will do soon.

STFU… Really?!?!?! That is hilarious!!! Looks like I am going to need a pair of the new version sometime next year...
-
The thing with the 634S is that is is in constant production. With all the other jeans, they are one-offs or sporadic. So introducing the chage in the 634S is more complicated than with the other styles. Hey, I know it's not rocket science, but hey. Anyway it WILL get done as Haraki considers the tucked into the waist band belt loop to be a good thing and an Iron Heart signature…G

I was not making fun of how long it may take. I was merely stating the approximate time that I could justify buying a second pair of IH-634S's. Haraki-San is too fast as it is for me. it has all finally caught up to me…
-
Cool
I think Im gonna wait untill the new version comes out then. -

LOL, that is funny! So does that mean that all other upcoming models of IH will have the belt loops sewn into the waistband as well?
-
Yes unless I spec otherwise
Cool, I like those sewn-in belt loops a lot. Is there any reason to spec otherwise?
-
Not for me, but one of my retailers may want to do an authentic '55 501 repro, in that case me may not want the sewn in loops. G
G Could I get a shout when you do get the new belt loops in.
Thanks

i got my pair of 634S today. i couldn't be happier.
-
I finally tried on my 634S today after getting them back hemmed… WOW i am glad i got these TTS and not a size down, these things have a death clamp on my hips right now... i could barely button the top button. Sheesh.
These seem to have exactly the same cut as the F380 which is fine by me, i love em!
I think im gonna keep the 634S and the F380 as my standard jeans and my sugar cane 2009 TTS as my slightly slimmer pair.
Christ it took a fair amount of experimentation to finally figure out where i wanted to be.
And thank you Lando for convincing me that IH was not too hot for SD

I am so glad that you have figured out your rotation and cut choices. Hey no problem brotha, those IH-634S's will loosen up and become more breathable with more wear. Can't wait to see how your pair progresses over time. Cheers!
