IH-666D - 17oz Duck Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Brown

[Jimothy]

Hi Gents,

Unfortunately it looks like I would be a 37 in these.

Is going with a 36 and hoping for an inch of stretch wishful thinking?

This material doesn't stretch much. Maybe if you email the crew they can find a pair that has measurements that work for you.

They do stretch, especially if you are willing to put in the work. But they do not stretch as much, nor as willingly, as a twill weave like denim does.

I think you can add between 0.5” and 0.75” to your starting measurements in the waist.

Brilliant. Although I can’t tell whether he is proud as punch or indignant [emoji1]

Whilst he spends most of his life generally being indignant, I think he was actually quite chuffed!

Out and about in some ducks. Duck tails.

I have a bit of a challenge finding the right size. My 666-142 in 33 is just perfect, especially waist and tigh (this model is a tad roomier in the tigh than some other 666).
The measurements of the duck in size 33 look all good to me but the waist seems too small. Going by waist a 35 tag size would be good, but all other measurements would be off.
I understood that there is less stretch than with denim. Any recommendations?

There is indeed less stretch in the duck as it is a 1x1 weave and not a twill weave (1x2 or 1x3). It sounds like you need to go up a size, but to be sure, measure the denim jeans you refer to using the IH method. You will need the 666D that is about half an inch smaller than that measurement.

Thanks @neph93 for the help. I will ask my local stockist VMC if they have a pair. I feel more comfortable trying them on. 34 might be the size then for me.

Outside Duck Tails.

They still making a lot of noise. When out wearing the Ducks.

Standing outside they come and visit you.

Even landing on the Ducks.

Now the Duck fit pics.

man! The evo on that shirt! Guessing it's tucked in a lot?

[twin]

@chrisjohnnick  Some times tucked in some times not. The 33 is one of my oldest IH shirts.
