      Wow @neph93 you really fried that patch! They're looking good. I've yet to wash mine. Did you wash inside out in a wash bag on a gentle cycle? Keen not to repeat my white stripes look that I achieved on a pair of much cheaper ducks!

        I've stopped babying my IH stuff, it's not like I wear it to church and it's not like IH gear isn't made to take a beating. Same procedure as with all my gear, they were washed in a machine on 40C on a low spin with an old pair of 301's and some shirts. The only special favour I did them was getting them soaked through in the shower beforehand as per IH's own instructions for washing duck. It was a good washing day so they dried outside in the sun.

        It's not actually as crispy as it looks in the photo. In fact it's not crispy at all. Where it looks black/dark is actually washed in indigo transfer from my belts. Otherwise there are cosmetic cracks, like I said, only washed on 40C and I'd oiled it a while ago. In my experience, the thick IH patches go that way in the wash. I dig it. I'll chuck some mink oil on it next time I have the mink oil out  🙂

          About 4 months in and no washes yet. These are getting more wear than anything else right now

              Only the wallet fade is that extreme, but I can definitely see some whiskering and combs starting. I'm likely going to really need to wash them by six months, but want to keep pushing for the contrast

                These are my favorite jeans, bar none. Any chance of them being reissued? I will stock up on my size (36).

                        Planning on picking up a pair of these in 36 this weekend during the sale. @Winchy is there any chance there's some variation in sizing and there's a 36 that measures maybe between 35.5 and 36? I'm between sizes and would rather not size up to 38 to keep the rest of the pant slim.

                              How much stretch has anyone gotten in these? I am on the fence as to whether to order my size (32or 33)or go up one since i usually have to break in my IH jeans and stretch them about an inch…. thanks in advance!

                                There's some chat about this earlier in the thread. Short answer, I got a little stretch but not much. About .75 of an inch on a 36" waist. You won't get near the same as with the 21oz.

                                    Mine have stretched from 30.5" to 31" and doubt I could get much more.
