IH-777S-21 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Tapered Jeans - Indigo

[RoxRocks86]

Would you happen to know what kind of machine she uses? Makes me wonder if mines can handle the 21 oz. Can’t imagine sewing anything unless it’s minor repairs by hand. You must have a lot of patience haha.

Don’t have a machine and I’ve never used one, so in this case, old school is the only school. My repairs are functional but ugly and take an unreasonably long time to complete but this is Norway and skilled labour hours are expensive, so I try to cut costs and do some things myself.

I’m actually going to see Elvedina today so I’ll ask about her machines [emoji4]

[RoxRocks86]

Awesome that you do your own repairs! I get a kick out of seeing repair pics esp. when the jeans look trashed and shredded, but low and behold they get some tlc and boom! they’re good as new.

Have you seen the before and after pics at Indigoproof?

@RoxRocks86:

Ho bradda @Matty123 looking good! Maybe we can be twins and rock the IH’s on a job site one day in Hawaii nei

Yeah Sista!

[RoxRocks86]

Haven’t heard of her until I read your comment @Jett129. She’s a total badass! My jaw fell to the ground when I browsed the before and after pics.

[Jett129]

She’s repaired an old Levis jacket and my 555s for me,absolutely amazing work/skills.

[RoxRocks86]

@Jett129 what’s her turn around time for repairs?

Wasn’t initially planning on tapering these, but messed around with the hem cut-offs and lo and behold the old sewing machine didn’t stutter twice. I forgot to smash the bulky part of the hem down with a hammer, so first one on me.

Really digging the stretchiness of the 21 oz. hugs me in the right places and isn’t restricting.

[madmonday]

pretty dope that you taper your own denim

what measurements do you go for the leg opening and knee?

[Jett129]

I’m definitely the wrong person to ask that question. Late last year she was sooo busy that she stopped taking repairs for about 2 months. Reach out to her for the answer to that question.

[RoxRocks86]

@Jett129 - dang, yeah was wondering bc of the quality of her work. She’s a miracle worker.

Thanks @madmonday. For this pair, knees - 6 3/4”, leg opening - 6”.

Holy crap this last restock went fast!

[gaseousclay]

edit

Just noticed @Giles post last week about this restock happening in a month. Unless this got restocked and I didn't know about it 

[manufc10]

oh…well I got the email notification of a restock...maybe it was just my tag size that got restocked?

[manufc10]

Only one pair of 34's on the restock?  Is that right?

Hi

I own the 555 in both 21 and oz and 17 oz and I am really interested in the 777. How is this model compared to the 555 when it comes to size? The 777 has a lower rise so how does this affect the waist size I should go for. Anyone that own both models that could give me some insight?

Thanks
