IH-666-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

[tailoredfamcam]

Since I rarely see larger guys in these threads, I decided to pick up some of these in a size 40. I have the IH-634S in a tag size 44 that were cut small, actually 42 actual size, and the fit is nice but I wanted a slimmer fit. Big guy in a slim jean!? Yeah… I know. They came in today and I had a hell of a time getting that top button, but I got it.

I think the denim looks great on you @tailoredfamcam

Way to have the guts to snap a picture and put it up here.  25 oz isn't my favorite IH denim, but it wears really well & looks great. Imho slimmer denim makes  me look slimmer than straight  cuts

For the record I'm 5 foot 8 inches and go between 210 & 220.

Oh & your sleeves, boots & belt look good as well.

I think u in the right place

[davito]

Yeah @tailoredfamcam what mm said looks good. Enjoy your jeans

A couple weeks on the job…after repairs

[501IH]

Cool, Haddtoo! You have the right kind of job for rocking denim hard. The likes of me who work at desks can only capitulate… :-\

And I thought mine were developing a patina!!!

Very nice Haddtoo 555!

[Haddtoo 555]

@tailoredfamcam great fit great cut
@jdl1279 coming along fine!
@501/IH I've seen really cool desk jockey fades
@4c thanks

Just spotted the fade at the shirt line…these never see belt or a shirt tucked in...clean enough for a tub / hand wash.... Back to work they go

Last week shirt pairings

Would like to see the back of them if possible hadd

I haven't posted in quite some time, but I had to laugh today. I soaked my work pair of 666XHS last night and forgot how stiff these bastards get when they see water.

What happened to the arcuate?

[Haddtoo 555]

@jdl1279

The backside

[jdl1279]

Beautiful contrast! Wish I could get mine there, but the oils I work with necessitate semi regular washing (they smell quite strongly otherwise)

[Haddtoo 555]

These are washed a lot too….wear them like you don't care 

[jdl1279]

Believe me, they are getting abused. I can't stand to be in them after about a month due to the odor. So I'm sure others are catching whiffs much sooner

[Haddtoo 555]

It shows…wish mine still looked like yours...mine feel a bit beat..not really my style... I find it hard to pair them with a shirt there so beat

[jdl1279]

Mine are changing quite noticeably month to month since I began actually working in them. They even look a bit more beat in than my last shots. To me yours have that well lived in look that kinda screams 'f#@k you, it's my day off!' Of course I don't see a lot of those, so may be the appeal.

@madmonday, @davito, @Haddtoo 555, @steelworker, thanks gents!  The more I wear these, the more I like them.  Only a total of about 4 wears, but the waist has stretched to about a 42 and the thighs are stretching nicely.  At first I could barely get my hands in, now I can with minor trouble.  I need to get back to wearing my 634S!

[jdl1279]

Crap phone pics at night (sigh) None the less, the true colors are odd mixes of greys, white, electric blue and deep indigo. Very interesting contrasts brought on by my working in these.
