      What is the wear to these round the crotch area? I seem to able to wear the crotch down very quickly.

        On 25oz denim I’ve noticed that evo starts first. I imagine the friction from walking/sitting around in heavy denim.

          If you blow out crotches a lot it’s generally body type that’s the major cause. The material is irrelevant. If you have a solid butt and thighs and a low centre of gravity, you will wear out crotches quickly. It’s exacerbated by slimmer cuts though. Trust me on this, I can ruin a crotch seam in six weeks on the right pair of jeans.

          EDIT: to be clear, if you have the body for it you’ll wear out crotches. The thicker the material the longer that will take, but that is mitigated if the material is abrasive. The slimmer the cut, the more stress there is on the material and the quicker the crotch will blow.

            Guys i have some question if you guys don't mid, cause it might be a stupid one hahaha.

            So, the waist, tight and knee area are going to shrink or not after first wash ? and if they are going to shrink, are they going to stretch back or not ?
            and in time i use this 777XHS, are they going to stretch ? if yes, how much it will stretch (in inch) ?

            Sorry because i'm just trying to get my very first IH denim, and i'm so in love with this one. Thankyou 🙂

              Fair questions, not stupid at all.

              These will shrink with your first wash, but only a little. They will likely shrink half an inch in the waist but stretch out about one inch with wear. So after a good soak and about a two weeks wear you’ll end up with a waist about half an inch larger than you started with.

              The inseam will shrink about an inch but will not stretch back.

                    Just got these today.

                    Man they are rigid. These jeans make me feel like Anthony Danials in his 3PO costume [emoji23]

                    Amazingly well crafted, and built like a tank. Can’t wait till they develop that “sweat pants” softness I’ve heard about.

                    Here’s some crappy cell phone fit pics.

                        Those look great Spectat!

                        Just got some of these.  Slimmer than I typically wear but hoping to stretch them just a tiny bit in the thighs.  Besides that I don't plan to ever wash these.  Gentle soaks at the very most.  For hemming, any recommendations on who would be best in the USA for hemming on this 25 oz denim?

                            Thank Giles. The hem is perfect. I’m currently wearing these every day, chipping away at that 6 week break in.

                            The boots are BUCO engineers, I love ‘em!

                            I’m in the US. I just sent in my IH-633S-OD to Self Edge in Portland for a 30” hem. I’ll let you know how they turn out.
