IH-666S-18 - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
Hi guys! How do you think these jeans for the summer or take 14oz? In the summer I have 15-25 degrees Celsius
Yeah like @xtcclassic said, IMO the 14oz are still a bit cooler than the 18oz. The 18oz do seem to be more breathable but I think just that extra weight with the 4oz difference still makes them warmer IMO. I experimented a bit with it over the past few weeks as we were already flirting with 100 degrees F in AZ. FWIW AZ is a dry heat. Temps have dropped back down lately though so I'm back to the 18oz until the miserable summer hits.

Also, I don't mean to imply that the 14oz doesn't breathe, just that the 18oz breathes noticeably more. They're both great denims so you won't go wrong either way. I'm partial to the 18oz because it's a fast fader with lots of character, but I love the 14oz as well.
Edit: I just realized this was my 1000th post. I need a hobby lol.

You'll love them. Post pics when you get them, this thread needs more action!

When I said this thread needed more action, I'm not sure that @Giles 's ass is what I had in mind.

Excellent marketing.

@Lindsey was @Madame Buttonfly aware that you were being a creeper and sneaking shots of Giles' ass at the meeting?
-
Being the official photographer on this trip, @Lindsey has the perfect excuse to get up close and personal with the boys - and I'm more than happy to see such a great shot of my husband's ass (he's not in bad shape, is he?)
-
lol
No he's not in bad shape. I will agree.

@giles do you wash inside out or no preference ? Thanks

@Mustafa911 I wash inside out always, but be careful with these. I wouldn't use a lot of agitation, I got some marks on mine when I washed them, I'm not sure if it was because I washed three pairs at once or if I just used too much agitation. If I were you I'd hand wash them or wash them in a washer by themselves inside out with just a bit of agitation and no spin cycle of course.
-
Yes , thanks. I always wash inside out as well. I am seeing some great fades so I got curious if Giles is washing differently .

Some nice roping developing:

damn these look great @Giles. Unfortunately I've had to retire my 634 18oz and replace them with my 634 14oz for the summer but I can't wait to get back in to them come Fall.
-
So far I've been able to wear these except for a couple of really hot days where I switched to my 14oz's. As much as I love the 14oz, these fade so fast that it's hard to not keep wearing them.
