IH-666SII - 18oz Indigo/Indigo Slim Cut Jean

[Max Power]

Yeah, it was a fun time, as it was really hard to get some brands and there weren't evos and measurement Information on all the brands out there. It was harder to get the stuff and more pioneering work.  That's why I love when new fabrics like The SII drop - you don't know what they will turn out in a few months (unless Giles gives them hell beforehand).

The re-run is complete and ready to ship from Hachioji, should be here in a week/10 days…

[Jestre]

These arrived for me two days ago.  Took some quick & dirty fit pics.  Yeehaw.

@Max:

There were far worse times than these regarding sizing down. Just read back on Sufu 2008-2009, APC: can I size 3, 4 or 5 down? If I can't Close the top three Buttons- will they eventually fit me? Samurai: I sized down 1 or 2 in the 710XX and it still doesn't fit Slim/skinny - I thought they were a Slim cut? and so on. Might have been the last wave of the strokes apprectation in europe.

But I'm with you, northern - if a pair doesn't feel at least a bit comfortable from the beginning, I don't want to wear it. Goes for all my clothes - if I feel them restricting me while I move, they're not for me. (Although that was a sign of wealth in the middle Ages - if you couldn't move or work in your clothes, you showed that you could afford not to work).

Oh Max, you've made me so nostalgic…..might buy some size 32 Samurai 710's and relive the good old days ha ha.

Looking good @Jestre

Haha! As a size 28 I've never really been able to size down much if at all. Although I've never owned a pair of APC's either.

@D97x7 how is your pair going?  After almost 2 years in Strike Golds, I am back in the warmth and comfort of the IH fold for my next pair.  Got these and the LBs coming next week and not sure which to start with!

[D97x7]

They're coming along nicely, imo. I'd post a pic but seem to be having trouble doing so at the moment.

EDIT

[babyknight]

Very nice - thank you @D97x7

[NorthernVictory]

If anyone can do me a favor, please post measurements of thigh-knee-inseam width pre and post-soak.

I only have jeans in the 634 as of this moment but it seems the size 31 666S-II, upon shrinkage in the waist, will be almost a perfect fit. So this seems like it will be my next pair of jeans.

Cheers

Monster restock….

[rocket]

ordered, hope they will work…

[Max Power]

would be one of your slimmest cuts, no? But I'm sure you'll wear them well, as always

[rocket]

right, but kinda wanna give em a try, we will see…

Is the denim on the SII darker than the loombreakers? Is it as dark as the 23oz Self Edge IHs?

[Jestre]

Darker than SE's, not sure about loombreakers.  Either way, shits are darker than a cobalt moon at midnight.

[Giles]

The LB's and the SII's are about the same shade of indigo….

[xtcclassic]

Wow, I didn't think anything could be darker than the 23oz SE denim. :o

[rocket]

[Jordan23]

Enjoy ya addiction!
