Hi,
are these 777's different from Self Edge 301's ?

They are a different cut, yes. Others who own both can tell you for sure, but I think the taper on the 777's is more pronounced than on the 301's.

And the denim is different, too!
301S: 21 oz
777S-14: 14 oz

What sort of contrast fades can we expect from this denim and what is the stretch/shrink capacity?

[Giles]

I'm getting pretty good contrast, but am washing super regularly….

and:

One-washed, so little or no shrinkage but, like all denim, will stretch up to one inch in the waist with wear

[Giles]

Plenty of scope in this denim…...

They are different yes.  With the differences in denim weight it's actually difficult to tell exactly how they differ because I don't have the 777 in 21oz.  I found that personally my 777-14 feels similar to my 301s if I size up by one.  I'm a 32 in 301s and I got a 33 in the 777-14.  Different denim behaves differently and the weight and thickness of the denim has a huge impact on the fit though.

What sort of impact does it have on the fit? Have you found the 14oz settle quickly?

i've found that a heavier denim will make a pair of jeans feel tighter than an identical fit in a lighter denim.  if the measurements are exactly the same then the lighter denim might have a little extra room.  it seems like H tweaks the cut for each denim to help with that.  i could be totally wrong though.

[riffblaster general]

just gave these guys a wash and the weave tightens up nicely.  this is really great denim.

Any updates on the 666 cut in this denim?

[Giles]

2-3 weeks

[xtcclassic]

Fingers crossed that I can find a pair with a similar fit to my 666-XHS, because this denim looks very promising.

Is this not anymore on sale? I could not find my size here in Germany! Since buying my first pair of Iron heart 555N, I love it. I would like to get another pair and I was leaning more towards the 777S and seems like I could not get it anywhere in Germany!

My 777S-14's are getting a lot more wears now the weather has "warmed" up a bit in the recent months. I did ride with them a bit when it was colder but i generally stuck with something a bit heavier. They're starting to look good though… I've only washed them once though so it's really interesting to see my pair compared with Giles's 666S-14's.

They're my go to jeans right now so hopefully there will be some more pics on their way in the next few months.

The summer sale made me do it, pulled the trigger and got the last pair of size 36.

[davito]
