IH-777-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered Jeans - Indigo
-
Hello sorry it's not the hello thread. My real name is Dan I'm 43 years old and I'm a bomber or industrial radiographer we use gamma sources to X-ray pipes so that's where gammaman comes from.
I got into selvedge about three years ago when I brought a pair of lee 101z which I wore for about 12 months.Then I went balls deep and purchased a pair of 666 xhs and wore for 1 year but they are 2 years old.
These new 777 xhs I down sized by 1.5 inches the same as the Devils and I'm loving them. The top box in 666 was so tight to begin with but these have more room but less room behind the back of the knees my tendons are sore.
I love Iron Heart. I mixed up the old with the new for you.

@W1N Those look perfect on you :-*….. enjoy!

I really want to get these but idk what size would be best. My rogue territories right now have a 32" waist, 10.8" thigh, 7.75" knee, and a 7.2" hem all after stretch. I'd like to have a sub 7" hem if possible and like a 7.5" knee. I feel like my optimal size for everything is between a size 29, 30, and 31 lol. I'd like to have a 29 with a waist around 30.5 or a little bigger and a thigh around 10.5-10.7 but maybe im just being too picky idk. what size would you guys recommend to get around those measurements

If you want to compare apples with apples, we urge you to do this:
-
I guess what I'm asking is if you have a size 29 with something like a 30.5" waist cuz idk if the denim stretches 2". and maybe a smaller thigh than 10.9" but if not its cool because everything else is perfect fit wise
-
Yeah thats why im struggling lol everything would fit perfectly in the 29 but the waist lol I'm down for getting 1.5" stretch but idk if I could handle trying to get 2"
-
Yeah thats how I feel but i dont think there is anything slimmer in the 25. maybe ill just have to bulk up a bit and squat lol

Judging from my experience with heavyweight denim, I’m usually happy to have some more room in them because the denim itself is already so thick and restricting.
So maybe you should consider a size 30 where you have to stretch out the waist less drastically and I’m quite positive that the bigger measurements of the leg on paper don’t feel that big in reality. -

That's a very good point actually. I have more room in my 666-XHS than any other jean and they still feel snug.
