          Thanks @Max Power
          It is fun being able to compare our jeans. For some reason Enells pair is holding up better then mine. I doubt my pair will survive to 600 days. Have to do small repairs every week now on mine.

              Interesting how little the II differs over many wears from the standard versions.

                Wrong pictures on the website (at least for me). Showing the Lefty instead of SII.

                    Needed some sizing help on these as I wanted to buy a pair next week. My first pair of jeans were the IH634S in a 42… i've lost weight since then and am now a 40. So on the sizing chart if I look at a 40 it has (41), is that the actual size before a wash, where they'd go to 40 post wash? And if they are a 41 to begin with would they stretch to a 42 give or take? Would I be better off with a 38 and letting the stretch? Just wanted peoples experiences. Joe

                    Ohhhhhh that constitutional stitching!

                        I would say these and the 18oz denim are the quickest fading IH denim in the midweight category.

                          And of course the Double Duck, if that Counts as Jeans. And then there's still the question wether "best Fading Jeans" means "quickest Fading Jeans"…

                            Yes, all measurements on thh website are pre-soak/wash

                            @joephoto:

                            And if they are a 41 to begin with would they stretch to a 42

                            They may over time
                            @joephoto:

                            Possibly…..

                            My rule of thumb is that after soak/wash/stretch, you will end up with a waist between 1/2" and 1" larger than pre soak/wash

                              I'm a 40 also, but I have to be careful with the thighs.  These would fit great if they were sanforized, but I'm pretty sure I'll opt for the 634SII.

                                Wanting to end up with a waist that's between 30.5"-31" I'd definitely be good with a pre soak measurement of 30.3"? Being a bit indecisive here haha..

                                      What is evo?  Is there an evo for 666s or only 666s2?

                                      I am trying to understand restocked . Where on your site ?

                                        Evo is evolution which effectively equates to fading and wear:

                                        Restocked simply means we have a restock:

                                          Beautiful.  The arcs are crazy- is the difference between left and right just due to wallet fade, or is there something else going on?  It's amazing how these lighten up- they start out so inky.

                                          I'm a genius- being amazed that jeans fade.  😉
