IH-666S-21OD - 21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo Overdyed Black
-
I just read the measurements and am afraid the thighs might be too tight but I tried them on and compared them to the 777 od
-
Impatiently awaiting a restock on these… I wonder if the mainstream trend back to wider lower legs (ie boot cut) will see the 666 cut doing well? I have 2 pairs of 666, and I love that wider look whilst retaining the slim top-block. I think paradoxically it suits skinny legs, alleviating the 'tuning fork' look.
Anyhoo, just drooling out loud anticiping an OD pair.
-
I've had a pair for a couple of weeks. I could potentially have sized down, they're a bit roomier than my 21 indigo 666 with some stretch to come. I hope I don't end up with too much slop in the top box (so to speak), but I'm actually liking the slightly looser look. OD is the business as usual! I'm hoping they don't lose the black too quick, although the bluish tinge is clear here against the real black of the chino type 2. Love 'em, just got my fingers crossed on the settling-in.

I they never go truly blue. Even well faded pairs still look like they were black jeans once.
I honestly can’t see how you would want them any looser! It is a great fit. Well done. I think there is a lot to be said for comfort. I also enjoy having pairs that a are a little more relaxed than others.
I’ll also add that after two weeks wear, there shouldn’t be much more stretch left.

Thanks @neph93 it's funny, I'm so used to snug-fitting jeans that any looseness feels much more pronounced than it actually looks. I feel weirdly exposed in anything baggy, fuck knows how I survived the 90s.

True news. Here my 21oz OD after more than 7 years, 1000+ wears. This is as blue as I can make them look.

sorry for asking in two topics, but is there a restock coming soon?
Looking more closely, i think triple 6 will be way better fit then 555s. -
thanks, then 555-21od will be my choice, i'm a bit in doubt since that knee measures 19,8 which will be tight, but all other measures fit very close to my favourite pair of hiuts(slimR)

Size question advice.
There's a nice pair of these in the classified section. They're a size 33 and I'm usually a 34 in the few other pairs I have (634s and 777s both 21oz)
I have a pair of 777s 21oz size 34 that are overall a good fit for me, maybe just getting to the edge of tight, but I wouldn't say uncomfortable. Measurements wise they're fairly comparable even though the 777s is 34 and the 666s is 33, except the 666s seems maybe a .25 inch less in thigh. The 666s seem to be pretty maxed out though as the waist and thigh are a good clip above the out of the box measurements. So not sure how much more give there'd be.
Just curious if anyone else was in similar position where they usually wear size 34s in 634s and 777s, what size they bought for these 666s. I'm 6'0 185 lbs for reference, I know not the perfect way to match but just to give context.
TIA

My advice would be to size the same as in your 777, overall the 666 has a more fitted top block and indeed a tighter tigh. In the end it’s always a trial and error. But my experience is that sizing down on a 666 is never a good idea. But that’s just my 2 cents.
