IH-666D - 17oz Duck Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Brown
-
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.
-
man! The evo on that shirt! Guessing it's tucked in a lot?
-
@chrisjohnnick Some times tucked in some times not. The 33 is one of my oldest IH shirts.

I've always been a little curious about the sizing on these. I usually wear 33 or 34 in 666 — Giles is my best size reference. On the product page for these it says he wears a 34… but these seem a lot smaller in the waist based on the chart — 32.5"? @Giles can you confirm that's the size you wear in these? Do they stretch a lot or something? (above it looks like @neph93 says they don't)
Would love some clarification because they look f'n great!

I have a pair of these. Fortunately there was an outlier with my preferred waist size. They don't stretch much or shrink at all. I'm hoping future runs of these will have the waist sizing more accurately reflecting the tag size because I'd like to get a backup pair.
-
@Palmer gotcha, thank you! So you just got the size that matches up the most with your normal measurements? That makes sense, was just super thrown by Giles apparently wearing a pair that seemed way smaller waist-wise than what he normally gets.

Exactly.
-
Completely ridiculous of me but I kinda don't want a size 36
-
Hah, I know the feeling. Hurts the old ego. I normally take a 38 and even though the 40 has a waist that might work fine for me the rest of the measurements aren't what I want out of the 666 cut.
-
Yep the thigh and opening on the 36 are a good bit bigger than I'd want (more so the thigh). I was basically hunting for something to pick up during the sale but alas I don't think I'm gonna make these work.
-
Thanks Giles!!!
-
I can get into a tag 34 and do them up. They will be fine with a bit of stretch. If I wanted comfort out of the bag, I'd go tag 35.
Hope that helps
I think these would look terrific with my new MTO Wesco Morrisons! Any idea when a restock of tag 35 might be in? My actual waist is 33.5-34….not sure how much these stretch. Sounds like less than denim. Wondering if a tag 34 would work or maybe be too tight.
-
Apologies if this information is available elsewhere and I missed it, but is the above still the best approximation of when there might be a restock?

Damn, I checked the production schedule. Not there. Checked with Alex and it looks like we both dropped a ball. No idea what happened, so sorry. I obviously was convinced back in Oct, we were going to go to production. All I can think is that we got so few retailer orders we decided not to go ahead,l without thinking it through properly.
