      Update…

      My jeans are currently lying flat in a bath tub under a few inches of VERY hot water (so hot I couldn't swish them around for long - I nearly had to put on a pair of marigolds!).

      I've set the timer for 1 hour 20 minutes, then I'll put them in the washing machine at 60 degrees centigrade with a low rpm spin. Or would it be better to have no spin at all?

      I'm enjoying the challenge. If they don't shrink much after this, then they are truly indestructible.

        I followed up the hot soak with a 60C machine wash on 400rpm with no spin cycle.

        I left the jeans to dry for 24 hours and here are the results….

        The waist (which is listed at 35.5" according to IH's measurements) shrank from 34.5" to 33.5". Having worn them all afternoon, I feel like they're probably now somewhere between the two measurements.

        Some measurements stayed the same (e.g. front rise) but the back rise shrank by 0.75", the thigh by 0.5", the knee by 0.25", and the inseam by 0.75". None of this is a problem (in fact, quite desirable).

        All in all, it was a worthwhile exercise as they now fit me better  🙂  Thanks to Reuben and Chris for their advice.

            Make sure to put some good leather conditioner on the patch ASAP if you don’t want it to start cracking.

                  Hello!
                  I am newbie. Got my first IH 777 25oz at a rate of 34/36. My height is 186 cm. And weight is 83-84 kg. After the first fitting, I was a little disappointed. Jeans at the knees seem too narrow. Please tell me. I should worry that jeans will not stretch. Thanks in advance for any response.

                  Yes, and another question. How to embed a photo.

                  Привет!
                  Я новичок. Получил свои первые IH 777 25oz в размере 34/36. Мои рост 186 см. и вес 83-84 кг. После первой примерки немного разочаровался. Джинсы в коленях кажутся слишком узкими. Подскажите, пожалуйста. Мне стоит переживать, что джинсы не растянутся. Заранее спасибо за любой ответ.

                  Да и еще вопрос. Как вставлять фото.

                    @Yury Dmitrenko welcome.

                    On the website use the function circle here:

                    Congratulations on an amazing pair of jeans. The 777 does taper quite sharply so the knee is a little narrow. Let’s see a photo!

                      They look very good to me. I’ve seen much narrower 777 fits. I think the slim taper and the weight of the denim is what you are noticing. They will loosen and relax with wear and become quite comfy.

                        In this topic, on page 20, Diego, with similar parameters (height and weight) posted a photo of his IH. I wrote him in a personal mail. I want to know how his hacking went. Waiting for an answer.

                        В этой теме, на странице 20, Diego, со схожими параметрами (рост и вес) выложил фото своих IH. Написал ему в личную почту. Хочу узнать как у него взлом проходил. Жду ответа.

                          Page 20 means little. The page numbers change depending on the device you are using or your personal settings. You can quote posts, link them, or refer to the post number. You can also tag people whose attention you want to get by using «@» like this: @Diego

                          I have the XHS denim in number of cuts and it will relax, stretching by about 1cm in the knee but only with a lot of wear and effort. If you want a wider knee then the 634 or 888 may be a better cut for you.

                              If you compare with IH 666 25oz in the amount of 33/36?

                              Если сравнить с IH 666 25oz в размере 33/36?

                                666 is tighter in the thigh but has more space in the knee and down to the hem than the 777.

                                The webshop also has a compare function that lets you easily judge the different measurements of up to three items alongside each other. It is very helpful.

                                        Hi Guys update after one year wearing 25 777. size 34/36 
                                        My batch is different in size compared wiht the new one and the differrence is basically on the legs, the new batch seems a little bit more relaxed.

                                        To my taste is perfect fit, skinny but not second skin.

                                        My pair has one year of daily use, but my profession is mostly indoors and not physical, already washed 4 times: wash machine  wiht cold water, mild soap and spin 400, even though there was some shrink, but strech back almost to an original shape. (thru the knees are tight but strech back easily).

                                        Really are comfortable pair of jeans, the indigo holds well. I like skinny fit and are perfect, similar to RT skinny fit (I own several of those).
                                        Bottom line after a painful break in are the most loved and comfortable pair of jeans, even in warm weather. Yesterday in Barcelona 29º C. 1 more week and come back to Northampton. 😢

                                        Cheers!!!

                                        I try to upload some pics soon.
