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

[taksaha]

Any chance of this denim in a 634s or 666 cut? Sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere.

Edit: just saw that the next incarnation of the IHxB01SBG will have all black constructional stitching. I think they will hit the spot.

Restocked…...

[lololol]

Giles can I have an updated measurements of the current run of jeans? Im looking at the tagged size 31. And how.much stretch can I be expecting out of the waist and thigh respectively?

[Finn666]

from my experience the stretch should be about 1" out of the waist and 0.5" out of the thighs!

[Giles]

Paula checked them and they run the same as last batch….

Great pics Rafa and Max, cross post of my 555-03.

Nice shot! I've been wearing mine this weekend and have to say I like the fit better and better. Has anybody washed or soaked it and gotten some shrinkage in the inseam?

[wariosss]

washed at 40° and had 1 inch of shrinkage in the inseam

[Max Power]

Thanks a lot. Good to hear that!

oh oh
let's hope mine won't shrink…had them hemmed to perfection...actually! :-\

[T-Bone]

I just soaked mine and have to send them for hemming. The waist is tighter now but the inseam is still too long.

Finn666, would you please post a pic showing that "hemmed to perfection" pants? Just for taking notes, you know.

Anesthetist, are those really 555-03? Mine don't have a yellow stitching.

[Max Power]

^he has a sample pair that feature yellow stitching like the BB SBG.

[T-Bone]

Oh I see, very cool indeed.

before washing i wore mine with a small cuff, like you finn, now i don't need it anymore

[Finn666]

good to know
this denim is really something special. after a few months of wear (2-3 I think!) it's really coming alive and the grey is popping up everywhere!

[T-Bone]

Cheers, Finn, I really dig that little cuff, I hope you won't lose it with the washes.

[Finn666]

don't think so, but if it should be the case, life goes on right

Finn, these will def shrink like an inch over time, in the inseam.  Sanforized denim shrinks 1%-3%. It's a twill weave, all twill weaves shrink to some degree.
