SEXIHXLSXA13 - Self Edge x Iron Heart x Leather Soul x Alden

[madmonday]

just at the start of our journey.  thought it would be nice to share:

under guys don't get mad, i'm really a what is easier for me kind of guy

when i put these on i realize i should have went with a 33 per the waist, but my thighs tell me i did the right thing with a 34.

as a random monday moment; i'm glad this denim was reused on the recent self edge collaborations. it is one of the many things pushing me to that blanket lined jacket.  Sandy slowed me down. if i could figure out where i can get someone to put a beige cord collar on it & the DC4/Ducks bronze buttons . . .

Just got mine today
Will try it on tomorrow with excitement

[urbanwoodsman]

anyone do a full wash and dry on these? Wondering if they will shrink in the waist at all.

Mine were stretched and a little loose before it hit the water. After the wash they were snug on my waist. Haven't worn them much after washing since they need repair.
0 soaks

That's from my experience hope that helps!

Yes, extra hot soak, hot dryer, big shrink

Hello IH people.

Wanted to share.

1 cold soak. Maybe 150-180 days of easy wear. 3-4 month more and i will give them a cold wash.

Those are looking stunning… You can see how much potential they have!.. Beauty...

[xtcclassic]

Beauty is right. Missing mine already, especially after seeing colour ghost's pair.  They're hanging in the closet until April for the HWDC2. Can't wait to start wearing them again, even if it is only 2 days a week.

[grandmasterben]

Monday and colour ghost, they're looking great. I think this is some of the most unique denim I've ever seen, there's really nothing that looks like it.

[colour ghost]

Yeah these are great jeans. Really soft suddenly after being …hole for a few month. In the sun they have this electric blue colour, and when not washed, they become very shiny..........grease coating I love it.

More pictures. There must be a pair more abused than mine

Enjoy

[wariosss]

hey good people of the forum,
I really like these jeans and the fades achieved by nerkg and color ghost are making me like them even more. Unfortunately the fit isn't quiet for me (to fit my thighs i'd have a waist size way too big … story of my life). So here's a question for true indigo heads. Do you know if there are other jeans similar to these: very deep and dark indigo warp, white weft and blue stitching. Even in other weights (which could be usefull for warmer weather) and from other brands. I'm summoning all of your denim wisdom for this one.

thanks.

Well, you can get the exact same denim in the 634 cut from self edge. Contrast stitching, though. Or you could try the Pure Blue Japan xx-007's, similar look but 14oz denim instead of 23 oz, and much slubbier. Those are great as well, and have blue stitching and no arcs.

PBJs are going to be too skinny through the thighs, though.  All their models are seriously slim.
