IH-666S - The Devil's Fit Indigo - Slim Tapered

[MikeC]

GM, if you soak again and agitate the waistband a bit, you can probably get 0.5" more shrinkage. My vulcans only shrank 0.5" on the initial soak (mild agitation) and about 0.75" on the second soak (heavy agitation). Enjoy.

Fit looks really good to me, GM.

Went to VMC yesterday looking for new jeans. 10 min after arrival a Iron Heart shipping came in, 666L and the new run of 666S. Tried on both. Didn't really feel the 666L. The new 666S is another cut compared to the old ones imo, higher rise, wider waist, more taper in the leg and a longer inseam.

In the end i tried on a size 33 from the old run and snagged it. I used to have one in size 32 but sold them cause i wanted a roomier fit. These are the new ones post wash (40 degrees):

Beautiful stuff…

[Veintiuno]

Thanks Seul! You should have kept yours, man. It is the only alternative to 666 xhs if you ask me, although there is no evident difference for non-denim-heads (but who cares… ;))

@Veintiuno:

brilliant fit there V. …and that 56 looks great as well!

[Fergz]

Yeah, really great fit there. Did someone say something about golden cuts!?

[Veintiuno]

Thank you fellas! Actually i wanted some lighter jeans for summer, but if you're used to 25oz, the 18ozers feel pretty light, so it's all good

Hey Giles when will you be receiving these in the original sizing again?

[Giles]

I have ordered another production run, we'll see how they turn out when they turn up. It'll be 10-12 weeks and there is no guarantee that they will be exactly same as the original runs, too many variables.

[ian816]

Thanks. Ill check back in a couple of months - my personal preference would be for a 33 waist and an 11.7 thigh

[tatmantall]

If anybody is interested in a size 31 from the newest production run send me a PM. The top block just didnt shrink enough for me and despite my efforts I can not adjust to the extra room in waist and butt area…. Most unfortunate because from the thigh down is magnificent.

BTW. They have been hot soaked once and hot washed once to get all shrinkage out and worn a total of MAYBE 6 hours tops

[Guest]

just thought i'd ask what you guys thought of my fit

please excuse the acorn house slippers

[Seul]

I really like that fit… This is post-soak aye?.. Do a big double cuff and wear 'm hard...

[Guest]

Thank you. Yes, this is post soak. Probably about a week of wear.

Hello

I just received my very first pair of IH jeans - 4 days from order to delivery to West Australia - very good service, thanks.

They're in the tub now as I type for their first soak.

Will have to get them hemmed though, the length of these babies is insane!  I'm 5'8" and I think I'll have to get 4" off and still have room to cuff them.

Thanks again for the great service.

^Do the double or triple cuff :). Check out GingerMagican above, they look great as a double

[stefango]

Hi Snowy, yes you're right, I will be doing a double. It does look cool.

Good work. Look forward to seeing a fit pic
