Hey people im new here and to the denim scene im trying to upgrade my Denim… would anyone be able to educate me on how the IH-666-XHS and IH-634S fits? if it matters im upgrading from N&F denim..any help will be much appreciated thank you

Aloha.
All the info you need is either in the relevant thread or on the relevant webpage.  That said.  The 634 cut is a 1966 501 type cut, the 666 cut is a lot slimmer but definitely not skinny.  All of the measurements of all of our products are under the "Sizing" tab on each page and we measure as per the "How we measure" tab.  Measure your current jeans and then compare…

Hi Str808Raw, as Giles has said measurements are all listed on each pair of jeans. The key is to measure your existing pair and then compare the measurements. It takes a few minutes to do, and opens up years of enjoyment.

thank you all for the suggestions i appreciate it very much

HEY G, btw i was wondering after i would measure and compare to the models size charts..and i found a model as close to my measurements, would i have to size up due to its shrinkage after first soak/wash?

[Giles]

Depends if you are looking at raw or one-washed…

[Str808Raw]

Lets say that I'm not too sure what would u recommend for both raw and one wash? Just trying to weigh my options

[tatmantall]

It's also noted on the item description what amount of shrinkage to expect for any item you are interested in. A little bit of reading will really help you out man.

thanks

I'm really enjoying wearing these. Not seeing any bleeding/indigo loss on the jeans but most things they come in contact with have a light bit of indigo about them. The depth of the indigo is really something else. They feel like silk.

After seeing the 23oz and the 25oz side by side I really prefer the 23oz, its quite darker, don't get me wrong, the 25oz is great but the 23oz just has a little bit more.  I hope some more 23oz is released in something I can fit into, another run of this cut would be awesome.

I agree the 23oz is really nice.

Being purely speculative here, but because this denim is a SE exclusive, I imagine that we will see one 23oz model per year.

i agree I like the 25 but the 23 oz is my all time favorite denim… better than anything I have owned to date

I agree with you, it's darker, stiffer, and smoother, fades much faster though and due to the tight weave is hotter and less easy to really move in it. All in all if I had to choose one it would be the 23oz. It's just so crisp and tight

Probably last update for a while (like 1 year 11 months from now…)

131 days wear.  Machine wash inside out on warm/cold followed by being dried outside.  That didn't get off all the embedded dirt on the but due to sliding in so much so I did a luke warm soak and used a tooth brush to scrub the problem areas followed by being dried in the wind again.  Now I have sparkling clean jeans to put away for special occasions when I need clean jeans instead of my everyday for the next 23 months MBBs.

So anyway... pics.

[seanocono]

So nice.  It can't be easy putting these away.  I have both, and would not be able to choose one over the other.

coming along nicely fanya!…

Wow, fantastic.  You sure wear the hell out of your jeans.
