634s-SEXIH13 - 23oz Selvedge - Straight Fit

Sorry Sirxlaughs, it was early and I was being a dick.
No biggie. I can take a few insults. I just wanted to clarify why I asked a question that seemed to have been answered already. I'm not patient enough to wait for SENY to reopen since no one knows when the power will be restored and flooding completely cleared to downtown Manhattan.
@adam313:
You'll see there are slight variations (even between SE and IH websites).
Please read the "How We Measure Our Shirts and Jeans" link directly underneath the measurements table on the SE website. SE does not use the same method as IHUK & IHJP. I recommend calling one of their stores to double-check specific measurements for the size you want.
I will probably do that before placing my order. Measure twice, cut once.

Thanks all. Gotta love the first week with a pair of serious jeans. They don't even feel like something you should have on your legs… and then the magic happens.
What a perfect description.
-
Agreed - it is a perfect description.
Personally, although I love to have well-worn and faded jeans, the first 4-6 weeks of wear are the most fun for me. That's when you discover how the denim will behave, and whether the fit is really gonna work. And when the first signs of fading appear around the pockets and the knees (or apparently near the dick in Seul's case) it's an exhilarating feeling that justifies the addiction.
Fuck I'm poetic today.

Just to dispel a myth about this denim, it stretches quite well. I really struggled to do mine up when I first got them, but now they are extremely comfortable.
-
How does this 23 Oz fabric breathe compared to the 21 Oz fabric of the 634S? Is the 23 Oz equally comfortable to wear in the summer like the 21 Oz in 634S? Thanks.
Sherdil - you asked effectively exactly the same question in 4 threads. That is completely unnecessary and annoys other members. Ask the question once in the appropriate thread or in random questions like you have been asked to do before…

I ended up playing several impromptu games of basketball tonight with some boys at work in these jeans. I can already tell they are going to be stubbon-as-nails to fade, and I love them for it.
Have to say, I think this denim might "give up the goods" quite easily. I'm really interested to see how yours go Jake, as you will definitely put a hurting on yours before I do on mine.
-
Yeah those first weeks are fun… But seriously, after a year (exactly today!) of wearing my 25 oz. 666-XHS'es, I prefer how they feel and behave these days!.. I can actually go down stairs and tie my shoes!..
Do they get a lot softer after a year or kinda the same to the touch?

If its the same denim as the sexihxlsxa13, fades FAST and with electric blue authority with heavy wear and usage of course, much faster then the 25oz
