IH-777S14-OD - Overdyed 14oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered
-
21oz fabric is heavier than anything else I currently own. As mentioned I've worn 18oz denim a fair bit in summer here. My day job is a doctor, so I'm in air con in rooms or the hospital most days.
Weight doesn’t necessarily translate to warmth. The 18oz IH denim is a lot harder to wear in heat than the 21oz, the UHR is sweatier than the 25oz. It’s all about air circulation and the loose weave of the standard 21oz is your friend in that respect.
The 888S or 888OD would be super comfy warm climate jeans I’d imagine. A more relaxed fit and fabric that breathes.

I'm always up for seeing some fades if you have the time to post them. The evolution of denim is why I love it.

@flooded I think my old 634SB is one of the pairs you referred to as high contrast fades.

I was into that back then and achieved it by avoiding machine washes for a Long time. But as I think the 21oz denim ist the one with the least contrast in fading in general you should be able to achieve a similar result in the 14 oz od denim. But of course that comes with the cost of not washing too much which is actually not good for the denim (and your fellow men). -
@Chris @neph93 That's exactly the info I was after, thankyou. I'm well aware of how cut and weave can affect how warm a pair of jeans feel. I'd much prefer to wear my relaxed fit, loose weave 18oz PBO-001 in hot weather than my tight fit, dense weave 14oz TFH. Having never seen IH 21oz denim I didn't know it's character, so I appreciate your advice.
@Max Power You're indeed correct. Seeing those photos of your 634S-B on Heddels is what got me interested in IH overdyed denim to begin with.

nice wear on your ODs @daltmeyer love that shot of the fades on the watch/coin army knife pocket whatever it's called

Thanks @RoxRocks86
I really like the way hems are roping perfectly. These were hemmed by IHUK. I always leave length for a big cuff.
I also like the top of the rear pockets puckering and fading in a remarkable manner.
It's also interesting there are no fades at all in certain light but as soon as you change the angle of view you can see wonderful variations of wear. It's hard to capture in a photo but I've got to be happy with these.
