I just posted in the introductory forum about my 634S-B's. As previously stated, I'm an aircraft mechanic primarily working with sheet metal repairs, so I am always rolling around in aluminum drill shavings and aluminum dust all day from fabricating aircraft parts.  The airplane I am working on now is a  26 year old Embraer 145 and I have spent the last month fabricating new brackets and such for severely corroded parts.  These jeans have developed a smell that is so bad that I can't stand driving home smelling them so I threw them in the wash on the delicate cycle, (no spin dry, I pulled them out as soon as the wash was done) with some Woolite Dark.  Does anybody know if the overdye and the honeycombs will stay intact with a wash on the delicate cycle?  Anyway, here are some pre-wash photos I took.

Edit:  I've had these and only worn them since early August 2017.

Yea, rolling around on aluminum drill shavings all day are giving these jeans a run for their money.

How's it going everybody?  I bought my first pair of Iron Heart jeans in early August this year, IH 634S-B's to ne exact. I have given them some serious asswhop in the 2.5 months I have owned them, I'm an aircraft mechanic that does mainly sheet metal work and l always end up with aluminum shavings and dust embedded in my jeans. Needless to say, working in gross smelly airplanes have rendered my 634S-B's super smelly so I decided to give them a premature wash due to the funk they developed working inside some really gross airplanes. I took a few photos of them before I threw them in the wash so here they are, if I can get them uploaded.

Once they are out of the wash and dried, I'll post up some more photos.  All I can say is that these are the best quality jeans I have ever worn.
