18oz indigo weft/indigo warp - IH-666SII and IH-634SII

Any pictures of indigo/indigo fades?  I know this is IHs first, I think, but are there other examples out there?

Would love 555 in these

The only pair that exist are on Alex's arse.  He has been giving them some grief, I'll try and get some pics….

That'd be helpful. Not sure if UHR or this. Most likely former but an open question.

Pure Blue Japan does indigo warp & weft jeans in a couple of different weights; there should be pics over on SuFu.  I know it's not the same denim, but it will at least give you a general idea of what to expect.

Alex is going to try and get his to me late tomorrow or Sunday….

@Chris - Thanks

@Giles - Can't wait to see the pics.

This, UHR, & 25oz. Perfection.

Alex popped them around last night.  They are amazing,  His instructions to beat the living snot out of them have been well carried out.  Working on a RIB everyday is working wonders for speedy evo.  They are in the wash atm.  Pics when they are dry, but I am out all day today, so will prob be tomorrow….

Can't wait to see these pics!

Saaaame!

This is the first sample.  Please note that the rear pockets are stitched differently so that we could decide whether we go with blue or yellow pocket stitching.  We have decided to go yellow.

Alex has been wearing these for 3 months.  They have had one soak and 3 washes.  Alex is a commercial diver and spends a lot of time bumping around the local harbours in a RIB and hauling dirty dive kit in and out of vans and containers - so these are real working jeans.  Even so, I am amazed at the brilliance of the fades…..(I'm a little pissed off I gave them to him now.....).......

Speechless

Those look pretty badass for 3mons. Good job! Not as different looking (fadewise) as i thought they would be tho.
PS-the blue arcs look awesome

666-SI versus 666S:

So glad you're going with yellow thread…

[DanielAFC]

Those look incredible, can't wait to see how they come along. It looks like the contrast in the fades will be really dramatic over time.

[Giles]

Those are my 666S above and the 666SI make them look dirty…..

[mclaincausey]

Well shit.

[Chris]

Wow, I dig how they've stayed deep blue even with the heavy wear.  For a lightweight user like me, they'll stay dark forever, which I'd like.
