IH-888-NT - 21/23oz indigo Selvedge DWC Jeans

[Matty123]

@Giles:

This is not feckin rocket science and is effectively exactly the same thing as we have done for the last 2 competitions.

Same jean, different patch, DWC cheaper to encourage participation.

If that's too complicated for you, then perhaps we better do a zipper edition…..

So there will be a 888Z then? Brilliant

Front rise of 35 is def WAY off…haha.

[Megatron1505]

It's the new "chin warmer" rise we've been working on for people specifically with a 35 waist

I'm completely chuffed that both the DWC is taking place again, and that these pair of jeans exist… But I think I'm gonna be a bit of a Debby downer and just get the less threatening 21oz'es... Too old for this shit...

However, I can't wait for evo pics!..

Whoops and fixed….

@Matty123:

@Giles:

The difference in rise reduces as the tag size gets larger, we tried to normalise the rise over the size range…

Larger thigh
More taper from the knee to the cuff - large guys don't necessarily wear boats (yes boats)

Loads of constructional differences....

ok, thanks… er what are boats and why dont i wear them??

Or if 13 like me, gunboats.

@steelworker I'm a size 14, and my father said my shoes came from Vickers in Barrow-in-Furness.

The 888s look really nice, and I really like my 1955 UHRs. Not being Indonesian, I find them a bit warm to wear in the summer months.

[Graeme]

Incidentally, given the upcoming 888Z, when's the overdyed version coming?

[Broark]

Pretty tempted by these, just not sure how much they're get worn down here in Texas.
I've got two other pairs of IH jeans and it's just usually too hot to wear them.
Going to think on it a bit.

@jvicente86:

Thanks G, and poor @Madame Buttonfly 

Thank you for your sympathies @jvicente86 - it's tough being the only intelligent person female here sometimes…

Can't tell if I missed them but I'm assuming that all of the tag 35 sold already?

No, thank you! So stoked on these!

Thanks @Giles and the Stubborn Crew for constantly backing the contests.  The extra effort on top of a discounted pair doesn't go unnoticed.  It's how I was introduced to this craziness and I look forward to wearing this pair more than the last.

[Jordanxbuffer]

Hopefully they'll get a bit more shrinkage with a hot soak (being in between 34/35 with my thighs is so annoying).

NT = “Nama Tako”
S = selvedge, I assume…

888's look like a good build for me, too @Graeme . I have the 55 UHR too and I love 'em. I too have switched to much lighter Roy's & Flathead for a couple of months ??? ??? Going to have to decide what size works best when I get to the custom Westc'os. I have to take 5 min to find a way to dump spellcheck
