IH-666S - The Devil's Fit Indigo - Slim Tapered
-
I am not a fan of the cracking honeycombs. Anyone got any tips of how to avoid them.
I have soaked them 5 times. Perhapps I have not agitated them enough during the soaks….?Anyone got any tips on how to repair them. I have tried with a needle and thread. Just to adding some stitches by hand to prevent the cracks to grow. I also used my mothers sewing machine at one point. Picked the wrong colour
and I was not very pleased by my results.anyway I am not sure it worked. Seems like new cracks are appearing after every soak.

They are still wet in the pictures above. 248 days. 5 Soaks.

I get cracks on many Jeans as well, don't do anything to them and have no problems that way. But I would not know how to prevent or fix it, sorry. The slimmer the cut, the more likely it seems to get these cracks, at least in my collection.

Strongly agree with Daynym, these are denim porn! Plus of course great stuff with your letters, IH might use this for commercial purposes. Don't forget to charge them if they do!

Nope, your devils are the bees knees

Really nice pair Nizzel.

Nizzle your jeans are awesome!
On the cracking issue, I think it's a waiting too long before the jeans see water. As Giles said, very stiff, high wear points. Water is good, it hydrates things, cotton needs hydration, I only have one very small spot on my MMBs but they saw water within 6 weeks, the 23oz ones have a couple spots and they were 4.5 months till they got this first soak/wash

New to the forum. and looking to buy some 666s!
Quick question: Anyone here worn TFH 3001s as well as 666s, and willing to do a little comparison? i'm currently wearing the 3001s and i like the fit a lot.. But they're pretty worn down and starting to get a little too sung on me. I wouldn't mind a slightly more relaxed look, but want to stick with the slim straight.
Online measurements for the 666s seem to be all over the place. Especially at Self Edge, it seems like the waist measurements are real large compared to the thigh measurements. they have a tagged 33 running 35.5 inches in the waist. the Iron Heart site says a 33 should be 33 inches? any thoughts?
-
They definitely do measure differently. Check the measuring guides on each website to see the specifics.
Personally, I've found Self Edge's measurements to be kind of erratic, but I don't have any experience with either the 666 or the 3001, so I can't help with your question, sorry.
