      My 666ODs get compliments all the time and asked what type of jeans I am wearing. They voted me best dressed at work  :D. I just say Iron heart when they ask for the price I tend to change topics  :-X.

      Other than that people have asked what Red wings I have and a pair of Nudies I used to wear.

        Thought I would revive this thread.

        My IH-811's - Wabash painter pants…......It may be because people are stunned to see me not wearing indigo jeans, but get positive comments every time I wear them

        IHD-01od - another banker for a positive comment....

            My IHW-01's get compliments every time I wear them. Specifically the Charcoal because it stands out a bit more than the other two.

              People do seem to notice the W-01 a bunch when I wear mine as well, I've been wearing one a bunch lately. Now that I think about it, I have gotten a compliment on the charcoal one most every time I have had it on.

              32 red seems to be a close runner up.

                I've had people call them "special" or "crazy" not entirely sure if those were meant as compliments though …

                  ^same here on heavy denim. Most people can't believe that these jeans are wearable.

                    I think the only piece I own that I've received random compliments from strangers about is my TWHRII jacket.

                      A new part-timer at work once asked to me, "Are you wearing selvedge jeans?" as I crossed the main office.  When I happily replied "yes!"  she said, "You don't see those much in Berks County."  The county I live in has an interesting populace comprised of old school Pennsylvania Dutch on one side & one of the poorest & most crime-ridden cities in the States on the other side.  With a little bit of Jestre in the middle 😉    It still shocks me to this day that someone actually recognized a quality piece of denim.

                              Very true. I am surprised daily in that respect.

                                  The laydeeez love the superblack IME. The shirt most of all. I remember Max Power saying that his grandma said it looked aristocratic; it does certainly make an impression

                                    Philadelphia isn't that bad.  Well, ok, it is.

                                        A few of my best friends from high school moved there after college.  Too many nefarious activities to list.

                                        But, to bring the thread back on topic, I can second all the IHW-01 comments.  I have had at least a dozen people compliment me on the shirt and ask where to get it.  After I tell them how much it costs, they usually lost interest…

                                        Out with the new! In with the old!

                                          Actually, to update my contribution to this thread. A group of my friends were really impressed with my IHW-01, they thought it was an incredible garment, smart, well designed, well constructed, then I told them how much it cost and they stopped asking questions…....priorities people, priorities !!!!

                                            Yikes, I didn't realize it was that bad.  When you pass Camden, things are really rough.
