I'm assuming you really like these?  I've been considering picking up the used pair in the buy/sell, but the thigh measurement concerns me.

[mikebarhoot]

I do. Went w the 40’s which is a 42 waist. Thighs are fine calvs are snug. But the low back rise is something ive had to get use to.

Havent soaked /washed em yet tho. If i have to, will cold soak / cold wash. Not a whole lotta play.

I’d buy em again tho. And if you have a chance for a pr. Would recommend em.

Dude, you would OWN in these!  You know your IHSH-107 would be ROCKIN with some SBG Denim!

Here you go @Max Power fit pics.

@twin These were made for you!

I got thin legs so these jeans work good for me.

These look so good on almost everybody, why didn't i like them when i tried them on? really want these but i am afraid i can't make the cut work for me… i assume that these stretch a good bit like always with the 21 oz denim?

[Jett129]

Just curious,have any of the 777 jeans worked for you. It might be the low rise that is throwing you off. It takes some getting used to. When I got mine I asked IHUK to find the pair that had the highest rise.

[Max Power]

@illo59 Yes indeed, I haven't worn them very often, but there's definitely stretch in them.

[illo59]

@Jett129 the VS777 was the only one i tried so can't really say. But yes, that might be a reason. Also i'm not a big fan of most super slim-jeans but these seem to look pretty decent… or the sizing wasn't the best... I don't know. I guess I'll have to try again.

@Max Power Thanks! You should wear them more often, it's imo your best fitting jeans- judging from the pictures in the forum.

[Max Power]

Thanks mate - I think you're right! I wish however the backrise would be a tiny bit higher, other than that they're a fantsistic cut (that I never thought would work on me).

Agreed, especially before the Fabric is broken in, at least on me, the Back sits a tat low.

I have found the 21oz SBG to have the most stretch of any IH denim I have had. My 8301s, once about 4 weeks old, had stretched 2+ inches in the waist, and nearly 0.5 in the thigh. A hot soak brought them back close to pre-wear sizing, but stretched back quick.

One should consider that these SBGs are raw (unwashed) whereas e.g. the 555-03 are once washed.

[Max Power]

Exactly. Mine shrunk a bit after the soak but stretched back to (and a bit beyond) raw state. I'm still waiting for them to get super soft and comfy as the 21 oz Indigo denim. However, I recall the 555-03 to feel a bit stiffer even after many wears. I guess a machine wash would solve that problem, but I'm afraid of washing marks at an early stage.

[Dion]

I agree, even the onewashed SBG is pretty stiff at the beginning but a soak/wash definitely softens them up a lot. I think it will take a lot of wears to achieve that without washing.
