PIH5DCS - 25oz Indigo/Indigo Selvedge Denim Slim Cut

[sabergirl]

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

About six months

6 months strong! Great work

Is that the Indigo/Indigo?  Looks a lot like regular XHS.  Nice fades, in any case.

[gosha]

I in them at home, at work, on the street ))
Yes indigo*2
P.S. Now I wear 666-14 and they are much slowly fade. But very comfortable denim )
But the very very fast fading is of course DD 634

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

[gosha]

No )) Just a snapshot. Lamp and iPhone. In reality, they are darker

[Matty123]

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.

Denim powerful, solid, and very soft now. 634-DD after 2 months of wear hard compared to these )

Mine softened up after 30 wears in warm humid weather.

The jeans or your balls? Wearing those in humid weather would soften most things I’d imagine [emoji1]

[Matty123]

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

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...

[Matty123]

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.

[piranha]

I just tried mine on and they're tight, like Tuco "tight."  Tight.  But I'll persevere because I'm born-again hard.
