IH-666S - The Devil's Fit Indigo - Slim Tapered

[deadendpro]

@nietenhosen:

as my 666 arrived, I missed that bartack, too.
after twelve days of wear I noticed this:


one seam has loosened in the crotch… disappoining.
but it doesen't matter, just took a needle and stitched that together. now it's rugged again.

The true beauty of Iron Heart is that you could have forgone the stitching and kept wearing them with no notice of any large tears beginning or anything because though that stitching broke, they are put together to be able to withstand a cannon blast at close range while strapped with dynamite sipping a molotov cocktail and counting to 3 with a nuclear warhead detonator in the pocket. Iron Heart will not fall apart, at all. i created a little tear on my 634s-b and the jeans have had that now going on a month or so, no damage really done thus far. will fix it later perhaps if it becomes a problem. anywhoo, glad you repaired them yourself, real men use needles and thread.

We are making all future Devil's Fit with a bar tack at the crotch.  If anyone out there has a pair without the bar tack and would like one applied, we will do it free of charge.

Just PM me.

Hey Giles,

(First post w00t) Just wondering if you know if  the batch that self edge will be getting will have the bar tack at the crotch?

Thanks!

[Beatle]

screw the bar tacks - I want double stitched right and left of the crotch, those are the threads that break

Can someone explain to me what a bartack is, with pix preferably…

[Beatle]

check ur crotch. where inner seam and seam from button fly run together…(basically where top block and legs meet...the bar tack is the reinforced stitching over those 4 layers of denim..)

and yes, the extra stitching on the pockets is also a bar tack..

[ IH666S ~ 34 days ]

Finally got a chance to try these on at SELA yesterday. I had feared that they would be cut too slim for my taste, but when I went TTS on them (up 1 from my normal IH size), they fit really well, better than I expected. I'll have to look at getting a pair out of the next batch, possibly in OD.

[cristeza]

Sizing question. I'm pretty sure from the info I have researched I would be a 31 in these. I weigh about 156lbs. I wear a size 30 in 301s. Measurements of my best fitting jeans are: waist a little under 32". Thigh measured Giles style 11", front rise 9". Any advice would greatly appreciated.

[Giles]

I'd go 31.  They'll be a struggle to start with, but my 33 now measure 34.  Rise will end up approx 9,4 and this about 11.3….G

[cristeza]

Awesome G. I think I will go with the 31.

[Giles]

Getting some nice contrast around the knees.  I guess about 25 days wear:
