IH-555S-21 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo

[Southseadenim]

Finally got my 555-01's back from repair from the Denim Doctor. Reinforced crotch, with a small darned hole. small darned start of a hole on the thigh. My favourite jeans by far.

Nice work and a lovely pair of jeans. 21oz fades are always so nice.

Just got my pair in today. They are super nice! Maybe it’s the heavy nature of the denim but my thighs feel tight. Waist is ok, plus I know it will stretch. Will the thighs loosen up and stretch?

They should give, not much, but I’ve had an inch or 2 of stretch on mine.

Getting thighs to stretch isn't easy, but the 21oz is pretty forgiving.  You should be able to get a quarter inch, maybe a half inch.

Feel tight or are visibly tight?

I think feeling tight is ok. These are slim and the thigh tapers meaningful. As you say, the denim is heavy and they are new. Looking tight (leg like a stuffed sausage) is another thing. Thighs don’t stretch much as @Chris says but the 21oz is forgiving and they will loosen and relax some. Pics will help.

Here are some fit pics. First ones I’ve ever taken!

Looking good! You should be fine as they don't look tight/painted in the thigh section at all.

@pacreamer I’d say you’re golden mate. They look brilliant and not at all like you’re stuffed into them. They are a slim cut so feeling them on your leg is natural. But they are not tight at all from the look of things.

[pacreamer]

Cool! Thanks! I’m guessing they are going to loosen up a bit more too. I’ve only worn them for like 3 hours so far…

@pacreamer Great fit, this model is gonna be my next, currently have no 21oz Indigo! Also sweet egg chair/monitor setup in that bottom pic!

[pacreamer]

@AdamJ Thanks! Yeah, these jeans are pretty awesome. Compared to the 666s-Bk I just purchased, both of which are 21Oz, these feel less burly which I think is a good thing.

And yes, the egg chair is pretty sweet.

Brilliant photos @Sam … and @Chesson I have to say those are some of the nicest fades of the 21oz I have seen.  Really nice!  How long have you had them?

Brilliant shots. Looking forward to seeing the same in a years time. 21oz is slow but beautiful in its evolution.

That's a great belt!
