IH-666S - The Devil's Fit Indigo - Slim Tapered

[Finkster]

^ Another dug out denim rarity from an old mine  … Wow

[Fadez]

The stacks are killer. I hope I can get some of those with my 777. Maybe in 4 years.

Progress on my babys… Slowly but steady. About 4/5 months of wear, in rotation with a Pike Brothers and Beatle Busters. This pant is awesome on so many levels and the 666 cut has the potential for an all time fav! I think i'll give them another wash next week.

Since my Samurai jeans are now stained with Chinese chili sauce I have myself am excuse to buy a new pair of jeans. It's a good thing I'm close to SESF! I've always wanted a pair of these and can't wait to see how they age!

Interested in the post soak measurements, the 18 oz. denim is one I want to try at some point.
I think the rise might be too low for me though personally.

^ i will have measurements in a day or so

[1fookntitefd]

Post soak measurements after an hour of soak with lukewarm water:
Tag size 36 using the BIG method
Waist 35 (36 using the IH method)
Front rise 11
Thigh 12.75
Knee 9.2
Hem 8.75
Inseam 35

Can anyone chime in as to whether or not I maximized shrinkage? This is the slimmest pair of jeans ive ever owned and will take some time getting used to. How long will it take for the waist and thigh to stretch out?

[Giles]

If all you did was put them in a tub of warm water, no.  You need to agitate.  Even then, with just one soak you may not have got all the shrinkage out.

@1fookntitefd I soaked mine hot for one hour and got 1 inch in the waist, 2 inches in length and about 0,25 in the thigh. Post soak they were a bit tight but already loosened up after a day or two.

I actually did agitate while soaking… Based on my post soak measurements do I have a lot more shrinkage left?

[Giles]

You could have but there could be more.  I can't be more specific than that.  Too many variables….

Super nice!

Got these in Jan 2016 and have worn them every day since. They've had 4 soaks and 6 washes. The washes are with whatever detergent my wife bought last, turned inside out, full cycle (including the spin). As you can tell from the dates inside my pocket, I can't go much more than 1 month without a soak or washing. They just start to get that sour/dirty laundry smell. I washed them yesterday and though I'd snap a few pics while they were nice and clean.

These are looking great! Keep on rocking 'em!

Photo dump! Some sweet contrast after a scrub clean

^ those are beautiful. How long have you had them and how many washes?
