PIH5DCS - 25oz Indigo/Indigo Selvedge Denim Slim Cut
-
^truth I love this denim. It breaks in very fast and is super soft. While it is good that I’ve lost a lot of weight. I am depressed that I can no longer wear my size 42 in these. Hopefully I can score ten
Approepte size one day soon -
I sort of with I had sized up one, because my pair is tight, which is hard with such heavy denim. I also gave them a preliminary hot soak with a little bit of agitation, but have been scared to put them in the machine like I normally would, because they fit like a glove. However, if you are okay with treating your denim as extra special and soaking and line-drying and all that, you'll be fine true to size. I have the tapered cut, not this one, btw

Is there some type of filter on in this photo? The denim looks like the normal 25oz color.

Wow. They look great.

@fanya @Vagrant I saw your posts in the DWC thread but didn't want to derail it with my questions… your pairs appear to be the most worn out of all of them, plus @gosha above…
So I was wondering did your pairs soften up like the typical 25oz XHS does? I'm sure Fanya knows what I mean...
I have been wearing mine the past week and they seem so rough and not soft, and I am debating on whether I should keep wearing them or keep on with my 888s. They might just be rougher than usual because I soaked the fuck out of them and every pair of 25oz XHS I have had before I wore raw for at least 6 to 8 months before they saw any water at all.
I like these because of the weight. But the hand does not seem as soft. But then again I am borderline brain dead, so I could be mis- remembering how the 25oz denim feels. I love the fit of the 888s but it is cold as hell outside and the 25 oz is way warmer... so it is a toss up. It sucks because both pairs are so nice I feel like I can't commit to either or and I keep going back to just wearing my overalls anyway. But people remark at how I wear them every day so i need to wear something else.

Thanx mang

I know what you mean… I wore my UHR BB's through a long Indian summer a couple of years ago. They were new and I was dumb. It was like having your own personal sauna to walk around in. Kept doing it though. I invested in some 17oz denim the following spring...

One night I was actually angry that I was wearing them. Put me In a foul mood. But I did over and over…
Yeah, fortunately and Unfortunately they are way too big on me now. I hope I can snag a 36 or a 38 in these someday from somebody. Damn I miss wearing them.
