IH-555-03 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Superblack (Fades To Grey)

[Max Power]

Thanks a lot! I think I can see first fades, but it's hard to tell on black denim, shine can be mistaken for fades.

Straight fit jeans surely suit your build better, IMHO

rightrightright
ur strong/short legs and butt are not made for this form of jeans…my opinion

[Finn666]

i love all of guys for being as honest as you are…though you have to get used to the fact that your mate finn666 loves to wear this type of cuts, thx!

[ALEX1976]

[Finn666]

ok, now back to normal i'd say!

I had my heart set on the regular 21 oz, but these look so dope. And Finn, you're not exactly helping haha. Lookin' good man!

I was wondering, did you guys go tts?

[Max Power]

I did but could have sized down if I had skinny calves and thighs.

[Sugar Mountain]

In my opinion, it's always better to have a little room in the waist and avoid the sprayed-on thighs look.

[TJ]

I forgot that I hasn't posted a fit pic.  I went with 36.  They were tight in the thighs after a soak, but stretched out perfectly.

[daynym]

Fit looks ace. Don't like the huge double cuff though.

[TJ]

I was gonna let them settle, then take them in for a hem, but the cuffs are kinda growing on me.

[Anesthetist]

How did they look just stacked? Was it too much?

[TJ]

Yeah, too much.

[bahgoogen]

hey guys,

i just picked up a pair of these, fit is pretty damn perfect when i try them on.
Only thing is, the waist is where i want it to be now (theres a tiny bit of room).. im worried after they stretch.

Should i soak these before wearing? how much do you think they'll shrink? and then stretch back out again?

i'm hesitant to ever wash or soak my denim, as im 6'7 and i cant afford to lose any length!

anyone who has a pair out there, what's your experience with the stretching? especially if they're not skin tight to begin with.

thanks!

Well, they're sanforized, so you shouldn't get much shrinkage at all; maybe .5" or so is about the standard.  To cut down on the stretching in the waist, you should wear a belt.  Even if they aren't tight, they'll stretch some in the waist simply from movement.  No way around that, really.  I'm not intimately familiar with the SBG denim, so I can't give you any more specific info, sorry.

well thats a good start anyway! thanks man.
I may end up just ordering the size down and just comparing when i have both in my hands.

[colour ghost]

This denim will stretch a lot, so i agree with chris, belt is the only way to avoid it. If you size down you will just put more pressure on the waist when you sit down and lean forward. It will end up being almost the same waist size if you don´t use a belt.
But if you can fit your thighs into a smaller size, maybe you should do that.

Enjoy
