IH-666S - The Devil's Fit Indigo - Slim Tapered

[crankyfart]

@zwer:

I've decided to suck it up and see how far into the summer I can wear these. Today will be my first day in over 20 degree weather.

I know the guys in Indonesia and Hong Kong, etc., do it, but I reckon they don't weigh over 200lbs.

these are actually manageable even during warm weathers.. I wear them everyday in singapore and its average daytime 34 deg, night time 28deg here.

However the 25oz is another story.. My legs perspire a lot but I'm still trying to persevere and hang onto it.

The DC4002 (25oz) are good up to 30°C German summer days. Take it like a man!

Noted. I walk a lot and end up sweating buckets during the summer, but I suppose that will just lead to better/faster fades. Hopefully not a crotch blowout at 3 months!

[crankyfart]

Soak em' will help prevent crotch blow a little…

Howdy folks! Just washed my devils for the second time. Don't really know how much total time put into these, but my guess is around 8-9 months total wear.

[Dirty Denim]

They look amazing

[elclintor]

Couple more shots. I wish they were a little looser in the thigh, I'd wear em more often..

El those look awesome.  Your pair were one of the reasons I decided to go for the Devils myself (I'm in about month 8 now, no washes yet).  Really cool fades.  And good to see you posting again!!

[elclintor]

Hey thanks baby!

I'm still lurking in the shadows.. You'll see much more of me when the temperature cools off and I can wear my flannels..

Cheers!

El, I think you may have just convinced me to grab a pair of these for the coming fall…

That's what IH Ts are for, dude. (And hopefully polos and more short sleeve button-ups.)

And yes, the slimness of the thighs is a cause for concern…I've always been interested in this cut and am even considering them two sizes up, a-la Lando.

[Matt]

El, is it just how they feel that turns you off?  Cuz they look perfect.

[elclintor]

It's how they make my jewels feel, Matt…

Haha

I love the denim on these, I just prefer a little breathing room..

The waist is really weird on these as well. They are a size 32, but now measure about 33.75" in the waist. And they really didn't shrink back with a hot wash, so it's a really weird feeling fit on me.

The denim is amazing though...

[elclintor]

Current measurements (size 32):

Waist - 33.75"
Thigh - 11.25"
Knee - 8.25"
Hem - 7.75"
Inseam - 36"

Finn, I think BK's 666 are in the photos of his visit to the Castle. Check the meet-up thread.

El, faded denim + cats= win. Great job on those.

Indeed that's right (though difficult to see the fading in those pics). I think the first wash on my pair is due fairly soon and a full suite of photos will follow!

[Finn666]

looking forward mate

I have tried this is size 32. Although the fit looks great but a little snug.No room at the thigh & waist.
Should there be a restock I'm wondering if I should get a size 33 or 34 for a fit like those owned by nietenhosen shown in earlier posts (his fit is perfect! ).Ideally I like it to be slim but with a little room throughout especially at the thigh & waist.Any advice from you guys?
