IH-666S-18 - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
These jeans have become my summer project so I hope to have something worth showing in a few weeks. Ever since I got them hemmed I haven't wanted to wear any other jeans.
I had the 634 in this denim and moved them on, only because they were a little large. The denim is really beautiful and even though mine didn’t have loads of wear, the potential for a really lovely pair of jeans was certainly there.

The fabric is certainly one of the most unique IH fabrics. The texture and the fast fading properties are awesome. Looking at @Giles pair is good inspiration to really put some time in.

Been wearing these every day for the past month. They're at about two months of regular wear now and coming along nicely. I'm going to keep wearing them but I need to add some other pairs into my rotation because I don't have the discipline to only wear one pair for long periods of time.

Starting to see some more progress after washing today.

Do it! The richness of this particular shade of indigo is somethin' else.
The roping wasn't too noticeable until the wash. I had them hemmed at Indigo Proof a few months ago and I didn't think they would get that twist but I'm glad it's here now.
I find myself thinking about them a lot, like when I'm laying in bed at night. All this time alone at home with the pandemic has really ramped up my obsession with denim.

I'm wearing the IHJ-51, Type II out of the same denim, at the moment - loving it….
Do you have any of those for sale? I'd love a 3x or 4x… It would fulfill my dream of being able to dress like Martin Sheen in Badlands.

Ah yeah, just a tad too short and tight in the chest. Thanks for the info.
-
Quick update on my summer jeans.
-
Please suggest me how to store these jeans if I do not plan to use for few months.
I have a couple of IronHeart jeans, Levis and couple other raw denims hanging unused in my closet for 6 months in similar condition during the pandemic but only 666s-18 developed a lot mould. ( It has been raining a bit here )

Another wash. Just a little over 4 months of actual wear. What a great fabric!
-
Seriously.. I would think they are true 1947 501s with those tones!
Mine look rather basic in comparison, but a wash brought out a lot of vertical faling
I also desperately need to have mine hemmed..

It’s never a bad idea to have a backup pair if you really love a denim that is not one of the top sellers. I learned that the hard way with the 16oz Vintage.

Hi to all the mebers . This would be my second pair of Iron Heart. My waist is around 36.8 inches. I see that the tag 35 is 35.5 inches and the tag 36 is 35.5 . I usually prefer to wear my Jeans unsoaked and unwashed , but definetely i am going to wash them once or twice a year . My i ask the mebers opinions , if any of these tags are going to fit me ? Thanks.
