IH-666SB - Superblack Devil's Fit

[Giles]

Patch will not be black.  W and arcs will be black.  Have not decided about outseam…..

[Max Power]

Sounds like I would trade in my 555 for these…

[SimonQ.]

@Giles:

Is that a real question?

yep 

18/21?

Superblack is 21oz. Could have sworn it was 22oz….

[Max Power]

It was stated as 22 oz, but was marked down about 2 years ago (though I think SE still declares the 22 oz). The denim seems to be way stiffer, but not that heavier than the 21 ot IIRR.

[Giles]

The same 21oz denim that the IH-9634Z & IH-9461Z are made of.

[MikeC]

To prove, I'm not crazy regarding 22oz superblack (from the 9634Z thread)….
@Giles:

The 9634 is being phased out and replaced by the 9634Z.

The differences are the new ones will come with a Zipper and the fabric, whilst being the same intense black and weighing in at 22oz, is a lot softer - more like the feel of the 634S.

I still have most sizes in the old version (but not 36), and there are none left in Japan.

If you are between 36 and 38 I would go for 38 in the old fabric and 36 in the new, as the new will stretch a tad.

[Seul]

I remember G weighed them and came to the conclusion that they were closer to 21 than 22 oz and thus adjusted it, but I will always refer to the fabric as 22 oz. cause it's so stubborn… 

Maybe my fever's back though...

Edit: beat me to it. Feel free to delete…

@Max:

The 9634Z is displayed with a lanyard /key rein in your webstore. Does this come with the pants or is it just for the pictures? And are the 22 oz post-soak (hence the label says 21 oz in the pictures)?

@Giles:

Comes with the Lanyard.  Haraki described these to me as 22oz.  I have always called them 22oz but for some reason he labels them as 21.  Let's put it this way, size for size they weigh more than a pair of 634S
…G

@Giles:

Update.  I actually just re weighed a pair of 634S and a pair of 9634Z and whilst the 9634Z were heavier, not enough to warrant an ounce. so I'm going to update the website…G

[Giles]

Some people memory…..

[Max Power]

It's only 2 years plus. I'm still young.

@Giles:

Some people memory…..

It frightens me as well…

[madmonday]

good job hajduk.

will patiently wait for these & maybe get rid of my 9301s once these land . . .

[urbanwoodsman]

Hell yeah. Landon and I have been talking about a 666 cut in SB for a year now.

[Guest]

I hope the measurements will be similar to the 666-XHS. Those look perfect.

[Seul]

@Shoreman:

I hope the measurements will be similar to the 666-XHS. Those are perfect.

[Giles]

And the order has gone into Haraki….....

Red W and red outseam whipping (so like the Devil's Ducks)

If you don't like red, get a Sharpie.....

[MikeC]

SB is not selvedge?

[Giles]

No

@hajduk:

GREAT!
all all black like the 9634?
i hope yes!

G, the 666 as the perfect boots bottom, cuffing and boots works very well together.
so a red outseam whipping on for ex. black engineers boots is a bit too much in my opinion.
but oh well…bottoms can be hemmed! ::)
