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

@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!

Very nice - thank you @D97x7

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

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

Is the denim on the SII darker than the loombreakers? Is it as dark as the 23oz Self Edge IHs?
-
Wow, I didn't think anything could be darker than the 23oz SE denim. :o

Am soaking mine now, with some agitation thrown in
