IH-666-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
Natural light, no Sun.
9 months tomorrow - stuck at work, so it's happening today.
Evening and days off only.
4 months solo, 5 months in rotation. No wash. Although they have been rained/snowed/hailed on a bit. Probably aiming for a wash after 1 year, but maybe later.
Ok pics:

had them for 4 wks. I need to get these hemmed a couple inches shorter. I live in Minneapolis, USA. Feeling like it is worth sending them out to get proper chain stitched… Any suggestions, recommendations?
Thanks
Blue Owl Workshop in Seattle, no question. Jay is a great dude and is the only person I will send my jeans to for hemming, even though I live in Raleigh NC and the Raleigh Denim Curatory is 15 min away. 24hr turnaround and spectacular service and quality hemming job. $25 per pair for hemming, plus return shipping. Just put a note in with your request (thread color, length, whatever) and contact info and he'll get you sorted out.
Sent them. Thanks.

They look great… And that floor is a really nice colour as well...
-
Damn, I want those. But, considering that with the humidity it's 42 degrees today in Toronto, I think I will wait a while longer.
-
ZWER they arent as bad as u think…I mean I have washed mine so they feel a bit lighter because of that but definitely something u should buy. I would go tts or even upsize 1. Mine shrunk quite a bit after the wash and i am scrambling around to get these stretched back out so i can wear em with more stuff
-
Did you find them the same size or smaller than the raw 18oz? I love mine, but if I've eaten too much the day before the thighs are tight.
Size up for me means they're likely too loose in the waist. I'm a true 36"
-
Hi zwer 25oz cut is a bit fuller but check thighs carefully, I went tts in mine and they are perfect after some break in, two soaks and a wash after some time. I believe my 18oz are harder to break in (I sized down in 18oz…;-)) than my 25oz since the 18oz are unsanforized. I would not size up in the xhs if they fit you well tts, unless you are seeking a baggier fit
-
Cheers, David.
I've got a 22" thigh so the 13" in the sizing chart looks very tempting.
If I pull the trigger I half expect a Visa SWAT team to burst into the office.
-
Yea i went TTS on my XHS but i think i have gained some weight during my wearin them. I weigh 203 pounds now and was around 190 when i started in my XHS…Its gotta be sympathy weight because my girl is pregnant
-
hihihi OK man
how do you measure a 22 thigh ?
LOL but I think you mean 12 right? If you are brave you could even go down to a w34. The denim gives around 1 inch in waist and in thighs a tiny little bit after constant wear. But I think you like it comfortable…so w36 is possibly the way to go. And you know the return policy of G. and P. right?this jeans like all the others are unique
-
Ha. Yeah, I've been there. I gained weight. My cat gained weight.
I've been seeing a nutritionist once a week and I'm ranging between a portly 219 and a svelte 215.
Yes, 4 lbs makes a big difference to how your jeans fit.

@supersalami: 666 looking nice. What gives your 9111 this shiny look?
-
22 is the measurement right around my thigh - the IH sizing measurements are for one side and then theoretically you double for the circumference. Right? I wasn't good at geometry, but that's how I've always understood sizing.
So, a 13 thigh should be 26" circumference.
Please, correct me if I'm wrong!!
And I really hate having to do returns. Shipping from Canada is ridiculous.

@ChuckDenim:@supersalami: 666 looking nice. What gives your 9111 this shiny look?
Not too sure… they aren't shiny in real life.. Maybe it's the obernaufs that give them a slight shine.
-
Hi Supersalami.
This awesome denim aren't that hairy or slubby, so After only 40-60 days of wear, they become very shiny.
Enjoy

@supersalami : God, i want this jeans even more after seeing yours
