Great shots, wonderful denim. Need to wear mine more.

Those look fantastic.  Mine are not nearly that far along yet and I've been on them 7 months lol.

This is such a great denim, I can't believe it doesn't get the love it deserves here.

They just keep getting better and better. For me it’s like a perfect combination of a contrast and what some people/I call a vintage fade. Photography on the money as always.

They look great! Thanks Giles and Sam. I'm so glad I have a pair of these, it's a great denim with lots of character and obviously great fading potential. And it breathes well, so it's very wearable on hot summer days.

wow. vintage looks great.

This is definitely my favourite fabric of any denim I have, regardless of brand. My pair are only just starting to show a little fading, not photo-worthy (yet.) They haven’t gotten the wear they deserve since the fit has been a bit off in the top block for me compared with the 777. Last night I took a chance and washed them on hot with no spin + extra rinse, then hang-dried upside-down. This morning the fit is spot on and I couldn’t be more pleased.

Yikes, great denim.  I wish I would of gone with this instead of the yenim.  Ah well.

Jesus tapdancing christ those are evolving nicely.

After getting the 177 made from this denim,I knew it was a matter of time before I got the jeans. Thanks @Alex for finding the 37 waist for me,they fit perfectly. These are my first pair of 666s,and for me are what the 888s are to a lot of the other guys. Initially they remind me of Old School Levis shrink to fit 501s,from the late 70s,when they were good. Hopefully over the weekend I’ll get some pictures up.

That's awesome, everyone loves the new vintage 18 oz. I will keep my eyes on it. The 177 is made of the old raw 18 oz from the first 666S though but has been onewashed.

[Jett129]

Don’t know why I thought that they were the exact same denim,but on the first page for the shirt it says “It’s now made from the same denim as the IH-666S,maybe that’s what confused me.

[Dion]

If the new 18 oz denim feels similiar to the old raw 18 oz it's definitely a winner 8).

[Jett129]

It’s definitely different, but that doesn’t take anything away from it.

@Jett129:

It’s definitely different, but that doesn’t take anything away from it.

The vintage is better in my humble opinion…

[Jett129]

Might be hard for me to,accurately,compare 2 different denims across 2 different garments. Obviously the basic similarity is the weight.
