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

@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.

[popvulture]

Completely ridiculous of me but I kinda don't want a size 36

[Palmer]

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.

[popvulture]

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.

[Giles]

Let me double-check sizing later today….

[popvulture]

Thanks Giles!!!

[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.

[Giles]

We have just asked retailers for orders.  So they'll likely go into the production queue in a couple of weeks.  Then it'l be 3 months minimum I suspect…..

[Chris]

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?

[Giles]

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.

[Giles]

Update.  Alex thinks I may have got mixed up with 666 and 888…..We will ask for retailer orders for the 666 now.  Sorry for the ball-dropping.

[Guzzidriver]

I'm also hot for a restock, it's been on my list for a long time. 

[Chris]

Thanks, Giles. IWHWIH.

@Giles good news with asking retailers on orders for these I hope?

[Giles]

When we say we are asking retailers for orders, it means that a production run will happen, it's just a matter of time.

Currently, the lead time on jeans production is at least 6 months I am afraid.

[Mizmazzle]

@giles @Alex it looks like at some point both the 666 and the 888 will be run again in Duck. Any loose ideas which one might come first?

Thanks Chaps!!

[Alex]

888 for sure
