Would you say the 18 oz fabric is more fade worthy? So many pants to pick from. I'm getting the 777 25 oz when ever those drop for sure. Just need to narrow down to one other pair for the year. As mentioned I don't own any OD types yet. Wish the 14oz OD came out when it was warmer, then that's an easy pick. I'm mostly excited for the ridiculousness of the 25 oz pants though so far. I'm not sure. I know the 21oz produces nice fades but it can take a little while to get there. Don't know much about the older 18oz fabric. |

Yeah those 633s OD in the 18 oz from Self Edge are a slam dunk in fit for me. Only two size 33's left... Hopefully they make them again as I can't justify another pair so early this year yet 😕 I asked Kiya and he said they won't be making them again. |

Debated on the 170 earlier from SE since my dirty thirty is less than a month away, but I really want to get a ihsh-130 in Xl or XXL.
If you guys see one in good condition, shoot me a pm so i can try to snag it. I see one on ebay that is going for 159 plus shipping but it looks pretty worn in already.

The grey is pretty dope. |

ickes blue is my favorite color haha.I was looking at the grey but I'm not sure if I'm convinced on it. If you can persuade me, then I can get my fiance to buy it for my present lol.

What I can tell you though is that the pictures don't do either of them justice and they both look better in real life. Just my opinion but the grey one is awesome. |

I have the grey 130 and I love it. granted, it's the only IH flannel I own but it's seriously built like a tank. I opted for grey because it's a neutral color and pairs well with denim. I like the blue too but didn't want to appear too matchy matchy. I wear the 130 on the coldest of days here in MN and it's sooooo warm. |

I've been wearing the 633S-OD constantly since buying them. Threw the Gustin BxB workshirt on for color comparison. Great photos--shows the unique color really well. ickes Glad you pulled the trigger on these, esp since they aren't re-running them. |

I looked for a grey 130 on rakuten and ebay, but nada. If i have to pay full price i would just get the blue of course. I'll keep my eyes out and thanks for the input.

Just my preference. |

Yeah I was checking SE's site every other day or so to see how many they had left in my size and when it got down to one yesterday I thought I better pull the trigger. |

Received my 633 overdye jeans today from SelfEdge and they are great. The fabric is exactly what I expected and pretty soft and comfortable from the get go. I think the ovrerdye process might do that to the fabric, not sure, but it seems like everything overdye has that same soft feel. The fit is really good on these but they are a slim fit on my body even though the waist is a bit loose, but just perfect actually as I prefer my waist to be like that out of the bag. I really couldn't afford or want any more shrinkage on these though so thank god the overdye process took care of all of that. These are about as slim of a fit as I would ever want to go.
But as usual, a kick ass fabric from IH and a great pair of jeans. Really happy with them.

ickes does the overdye process really keep it from shrinking further at all? Makes me curious if I should try something like that.

Which reminds me, I also received my IHJ-46 yesterday which is made of the same 17oz duck Giles is using for that sample. It's my first IH jacket. Type III trucker, no pockets, modified with a little extra length. Great jacket and I sized up to an XXL based on the fit guide and forum recommendation and it worked out great. Much more versatile that way for layering but still fits great with just a T underneath.
These are available at RB. Definitely recommend picking one up if a brown duck trucker strikes your fancy.

Yesterday was a crazy busy day for me, didn't even get to try on the trucker till late last night which is why.I only mention it now. The brown Duck looks really sharp with the black 633 ODs too, which by the way I've been wearing pretty much since I got them (other than to sleep in of course).
IHJ-46 is a great deal at those RB prices.

ickes if you haven't already, try your green 129 with your 633S-OD--they play pretty well together. I like the 101BB combo too, just not near as much...

Yes. I was between sizes and the large had too much room in the mid section. It is nice having a variety of fits for different sitches (dont hit me  and I have full freedom of movement, but this is at my fitted limits... |

A size large chest measure something like 45.5" but I take a 44" chest. I think I read somewhere that a lot of people sized down on this shirt |

Size large with a hot wash, med drier would've been ideal for me in all probability, but I wasn't willing to risk hurting such an awesome shirt and the fitted medium has its place. All toss up some more angles in a hot sec...
