      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.

        Yea, we will see. 16.5 oz but tighter weave. Another month the weather will warm up more.

          My 666D were quite snug in the beginning and they've stretched at least 3/4", possibly more like a full inch. I imagine they wouldn't have stretched as much if they hadn't been so small to begin with. I second them not being that breathable though.

            I wore my 2634 (paraffin coated 22oz ducks!) in high summer and they were breathing a lot. I suppose …

              These will be a great summer jean

              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.

                  Cheers! 

                    I looked real quick at measurements, if the 555 these are so close in sizing in 36…wasit, thigh, rise.

                            Now I'm going to soak them. Pics tomorrow.

                                  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.
