IH-634

[match]

Good day! I have the question-for the manufacture of model 634 and 634S is material from a single roll or so different denim? In my opinion the edges slightly exaggerated. Is just one indication of tissue on a particular technology, but not quality mark.

634 dernim is not a selvedge denim.  It is produced on a different loom than the 634s denim:

yeah, IH-634's and 1634's (black) kind of kick ass. Still better than most selvedge denim an i for one love the cut.

Giles, how much would it cost if I were to place a special order on either the 634 or 461 non-selvedge jeans? Thanks.

[Giles]

USD295 shipped….G

^does this mean for custom wishes e.g. longer inseams? how about the 634 S?

[Giles]

No, the question was, can I get in the IH-634 and/or the IH-461.  These are effectively non-selvedge versions of the IH-634S and the IH-461S.

These jeans sell well in Japan, but not so well in The West, thus I do not stock them as a matter of course….

[riffblaster general]

is there any difference in the stiffness of this denim and the 634s?  my 1634 seems heavier and more stiff than my 634s.

[Beatle]

I think the non selvage denim is not as soft - starchier…

[Giles]

Yes, with less of a slubby texture too

[jimmy]

sounds like its woven on a projectile loom rather than a shuttle which would make it a more price point jean but still with the functional characteristics.

the reason this will do well in Japan rather than anywhere else is because IH Japan from what i gather sell to a lot of bikers which are after practicality as most of us here are after the vintage personalities.

Jimmy.  You aced it…G
