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

[davito]

it is a personal preference. the 18oz is a beautiful unsanforised hairy slubby denim which gives you nice fades after quite a quick period of time. after a soak the 18oz will be over 19oz post-soak. the 25ozers need some more time to break but you will love em, great jeans. You may also opt for the 634S in 21oz (haraki-san's signature and favourite) which is a straight cut with a small taper down the knee. the perfect jeans to enter the IH world as you may see in the other thread. good luck!

If you're concerned about the thigh I found that the thigh on the 25oz is bigger than that on the 18, once soaked. At least in my size 36. Both are amazing choices.

If you do go for the 25oz, bear in mind that they will be stiff as a board when you first put them on. It takes longer than normal to break them in, but with some patience they will become your new favourite jeans!

Is there a chance, that there will be a 555 in 25 oz?

lol wtf that'll just be impossible to walk…... total no brainer question....

[daynym]

Impossible to walk means, that you have to struggle walking in your 666 25ozers, too?!? It´s a pity.

The first two weeks I dreaded going up and down stairs… I had to stick to shoes I could slip in and out of... Just an example... 555 in 25 = suicidal...

Random pic… You can see the difference in combs as I tend to sit down on my right knee a lot more...

The 555 in 21 oz is really tight behind the knees (at least on me). I couldn't imagine it being 25 oz. And i probably would sweat like a pig in it.

Never say never, but there are no current plans.

[zwer]

I'm not sure if I got a big pair or something, but I've found my 666-XHS to be more comfortable and easier to walk around in than my 666s. The only challenge I had was with buttoning them up.

[Giles]

Ditto….

So I've got about 2 solid months in them so far, wearing for 12 hours a day minimum 4 days a week. They get wear on the other 3 also, just might not be for 12 hours. Words cannot express how much I love these jeans. Snapped a couple of quick pics. I think they're coming along nicely.

[Seul]

Lovely, lovely!.. What's that knife you're carrying, lad?..

[wearoften]

That would be my Kershaw.

[Seul]

Aaah yes… Kershaw and their big clips ey!..

[wearoften]

Yes sir. I'm actually on the hunt for a replacement.

[daynym]

Fit doesn't look that 666 like. More straight. I like.
