IH-666-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

[dave]

Probably not much we can do about it period.  It's just different denim.  I think the XHS contrast will blow the SR out of the water over time

[dave]

You gotta post more now, Dave!..

Is there anyway that this denim will shrink? Perhaps with a hot soak at the waist line? The waist is a little too loose for my liking..

[Giles]

I doubt it I am afraid

[nicolnicolnicol]

It's okay! Nothing a belt can't solve!

[Beatle]

yap, nic, same boat as you..I checked - and actually my Busters od are the same size as these /29 - and the waist on the 666 could be about an inch smaller..so yes, belt it is..

[kit99bar]

luckily the denim does not stretch much.

[georgeel]

0,2" in the waist, according with SE. Optimistic, I think.
I recommend a good belt.

Wanted shoreman's ihb02. But the shipping is just crazily high. That's for living far away in southeast asia I guess..

^^

shoreman is pretty reasonable (i just like giving him a hard time), send him a pm & he might be able to come to some sort of common ground with you so everyone wins.

& damn i thought your fit was perfect, sorry the waist is a bit too roomy for your liking

The Canadian postage rates are the highest ones I can think of, and I have quite a few int'l transactions under my belt…

[Giles]

Seconded.

[nicolnicolnicol]

Well, he did offered free postage to someone in the US for free.. And have it shipped to me from the US. But I figured it would be too troublesome for me to get things linked up here and there..

I will just make do with a tanner for now on.

[madmonday]

i know this is not the proper way to do this, but send the damn belt to me, or at least ten other forum members i can think of that wouldn't mind then shipping the item out to you.

sending you a pm now 

geez, you act like you have no idea where you are at

[Seul]

If I was a US citizen, I would've offered the same… Nice job, Mickey!..

[madmonday]

don't say it too loud.

i'm mad>:(monday

After just 5 days wear it really feels like I'm breaking these in with some creases already forming. These pics give a good indication of the texture and hue of this amazing denim

[Giles]

Looking great IS
