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

@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.

pretty dope that you taper your own denim
what measurements do you go for the leg opening and knee?
-
@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!

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
-
oh…well I got the email notification of a restock...maybe it was just my tag size that got restocked?
-
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
-
I don’t own both but I have lots of experience with the 555 and have tried on the 777 a few times. While the 777 has a lower rise and this can affect where it sits on the body, I wouldn’t say the difference is huge. It depends on you’re body shape. You could allow maybe half an inch, but I wouldn’t go a full size up.
That being said it all comes down to measurements for the specific model/iteration/pair. Use the Compare function in the webshop to get an idea of how the 777 iterations are compared your IH-555-01/IH-555N baselines. It maybe that the same tagsize comes up half an inch bigger already.

I have both 555 and 777 and while my 777s fit just fine,And look good on me,my 555s are just more comfortable/easier for me to wear. I attribute this to the lower rise of the 777s. On my most recent pair of 777s I asked for the pair in my tag size that had the highest rise and that definitely helped. Hope this helps you.

Boom! Congratulations. The 21oz is a great place to start. Let us know how it goes @heatx
I live in Florida and, as I'm sure you know, it gets fucking hot here in the summers… I wear denim year round, so I was definitely a bit wary of ordering 21oz jeans. But, from what I understand, the Iron Heart 21oz is their most breathable denim so I decided to pull the trigger.
I'm a small guy, 5'6" 120lbs and my waist measures just slightly above the 26" mark... I ordered the 26 in a 33" length so that I have room to cuff. I have a few pairs of Red Wings, but I mainly wear sneakers (Adidas UltraBoost mostly)... I was looking for a tapered, super slim cut... these should fit the bill perfectly! Stoked.
