IH-555-02 - 18oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo

[Goldtop]

Wow - these arrived in the post today and, I have to say, I was nervous about ordering the 18oz denim as I'm a huge fan of the 21oz, have many pairs, know how it behaves and what size to pick etc but these feel amazing! They are a little easy in the waist and top block at the moment and tight through the legs though I'm guessing the top block will fit well after a soak and the legs will stretch back if I pull them on damp (right?).

Stunning denim - so much character!

A good fit on you.

I think I've also solved the mystery of the 21oz tag. Having now soaked them I'm convinced that Haraki-San meant '21oz post soak'. If anyone spots someone trying to walk around London tomorrow without bending their knees that'll be me. I'm guessing these things take a while to break in. Absolutely loving them though and looking forward to my first full day of wear.

They don't take as long to break in as one might think.  I thought the same with my first pair.

thank you kindly,

i got a pair of 01's for you to try on in a 36 slim  ;).

funny thing about this cut is the only issue i have are my calves, sometimes they feel a bit close for my liking.

Shit, man.  Lovin' it Monday.

[madmonday]

thanks

the rise on these is pretty low, pretty sure my 9301s & 7301s had either a higher rise, or my belly sat lower so it made it comfortable & doable for me (if that makes sense) i know the big H is famous for the 21oz stuff & just heavy in general (23, 25, superblack), but this 18oz denim is insanely nice & all it is going to take is the right contest pair getting some light & then 18oz nothing is going to be able to stay on the shelves . . . .

Serious on point Monday, as usual

[Finn666]

looking godd there slick rick
that whole outfit is boss…

btw. i'm thinking about going for your 555-01's pretty hard tbh. ...sth. still holds me back though!

[derivative666]

This cut is so good

Hi guys anybody have measurements for 38 before and after pre-soak? Cant decide 18 or 21oz for this cutting. Thanks.

After doing some soul searching, I've decided to pick up a pair of these but I'm sizing up one for a slightly more relaxed fit. Maybe if I start taking enough photos of these, they won't disappear on us!

[Giles]

We're re-running them at the mo….

[mr.dead]

^Awesome, I thought I read somewhere that they might be moved to extinct. Either way I'll definitely get lots of shots of the jeans evolution.
