Could be a new flasher. Looks legit. Do you have pics of the jeans (selvedge ID, arctuates, leather patch)?

Of course you could just order from here…

Snagged a used pair with a longer inseam. Works much better with boots IMHO

I agree. I gratefully was able to get a pair this summer from a generous forum member, thinking a 31" inseam was perfect for converse, and they were, but with boots they looked weird, and I wear boots 99% of the time in fall and winter. Luckily these appear to be unhemmed (old model) as they measured 35" after a wash. I did some quick crotch reinforcement, but Im sure after this winter i'll need to send them off for repairs, so when I do, Indigo proof can probably hem these to 33" like I usually do.

Phew.
Finally, made it through the whole 241-page thread.
Now I feel ready to make a soak and start breaking this beauty.

Mine are officially out of hibernation. After temps being in the 80's earlier this week and dropping to a high in the low 60's yesterday and today, I jumped straight from my 14oz 666's to my 25oz 666's. It's a rather eye-opening experience.

It's obviously up to you, but why are you soaking?

Fit is a little bit looser than I expected, trying to shrink it a little.

[neph93]

There isn't much to be had, but they'll tighten up a little.

Look great!! Def time for a wash tho man

[mikebarhoot]

Im amazed at some of the timing to wear ratios. Mine are just under 11 months old. Ive worn em more than not hiking, walking, camping, to wk, bar hopping, 4 resident moves and even slept in em a few times outa necessity. Still, these stubborn bastards show minimum wear. 1 wash/soak, 2 soaks and just finished their first machine wash (hand wash cycle) cause they were spouse "get the fük away from me" ripe.

They are soft and VERY comfortable tho and my "go-to" britches.
