IH-666-LB - Devil's Fit Loom Breakers….
-
Wednesday I will see how they fit. I know my measurements, they will be a bit snug on my wait and maybe my thighs… Can't wait to find out.
These will be a great summer jean, these and my 3sixteens.

Appreciate the tip @georgeel [emoji4] I hear you about the thigh, I think I can pull it off but the waist is larger than my UHR and that is already on the edge for me.
I'm getting this denim albeit in the 816 form & non-selvage - they might very well become my daily beaters, I'm a huge fan of the 816 cut [emoji5]️ -
Yea, we will see. 16.5 oz but tighter weave. Another month the weather will warm up more.

I would disagree that these would be good for the summer. I find my 666D to be pretty warm, the duck does not breathe like the 21oz denim. That's just my experience tho.
I wore my 2634 (paraffin coated 22oz ducks!) in high summer and they were breathing a lot. I suppose …

That'd be awesome. Is the general consensus that these will be a good bit cooler than the standard 21oz? I had some IH-817 that weren't exactly cool, so I guess we'll find out.
I don't know what H made to 817's denim. The result is that they seem bulletproof. However, having the patience to wear them, I assure you that in time, they become soft and fresh enough. Sort of…
Considering the evolution of these LB ducks, I think they are more & more willing to release their indigo then 817. And, after a few months, more soft and fresh as they fade. This is what I hope.

Breaking them in. They actually fit spot on in the waist. I thought I was more of a 37-37.5" but 36.5" is NICE! Thighs aren't tight on me, just restrict a little movement, depending on movement ha.
-
Just a fit question. In have the 555-01 In tag size 36. The 555 needed a bit of stretching, but they fit me very nicely now. I see both pairs share a 36.5 waist Mx.
Will these work for me?
Any insight would be appreciated.
-
I looked real quick at measurements, if the 555 these are so close in sizing in 36…wasit, thigh, rise.

Delivered.
Thank you, Lord Almighty, you made me choose W30 instead of W29!!!
Now I'm going to soak them. Pics tomorrow.
Meanwhile, thumb up for Giles, Paula, Matt and the rest of IH crew: you did well, again!
-
incredible!
Look at the duck-printed indigo stains on the tank…
-
Looking forward to the fit pics @georgeel - I will be getting my pair of the LBs next week.

OK. Worn them not completely dry, I took them for a bike ride of about 10 km.
IH never done anything like these. Not-Denim is hard stuff, very difficult to handle. Near impossible to button up, turn them for washing is tiring. 666-LB bleed indigo in a massive way (my hands are still completely stained!). But after a few hours of break-in, the fabric relaxes and all feeling of constriction disappear. And they show first signs of fading in the whiskers. It's true, I swear.
