      @Jett129:

      Have you come to any personal conclusion on which types of footwear look best with these?

      That is more a question of cut and hemming, than fabric I think. Wearing engineers with the 555 is touch and go for me. If these were hemmed 4-5” shorter then I’d be happy wearing Wesco’s with the MP toe. As it is there is so much stacking it looks a bit off.

      With cuffs or all the stacking, they look great with sneakers and lace up boots. I’m really looking forward to the measurements of the 666. If they work, I’ll be wearing them with Boss for sure.

        @neph93 – Crushed it with the review. Thank you for this man  😎 I feel like this is a choice based in utilitarianism and function, both hallmarks of IH design. What a great step forward for the product.

          Knee bags and sagging out at the rear of the top block are well known “issues” on 100% cotton jeans, and neither has happened in these jeans.

          And just like that, I’m sold. Bring on the 777’s. Great write up, @neph93

            Exactly.  Will it work for everyone?  Of course not, but then bootcuts don't, 25oz doesn't, black denim doesn't, non-selvedge denim doesn't…....

            I would never buy or wear black denim  😉 😎

              You’ve hit the nail on the head there mate. This isn’t about selling out or showing contempt for tradition. It’s about increased application

              Thanks for the kind words.

                And just like that, I’m sold.

                It is the most notable feature, now at the 100 wears/two washes mark. I’m pretty impressed.

                And thank you.

                      Fantastic write up my man. Extremely informative and very well articulated. And the icing on the cake is that i can finally entertain the thought of owening a pair of 666's which is completely out of the question for me right now.

                            I think that those must be a sample pair @neph93 what patch is on your sample pair? All production SST should have the new patch….

                                    Yeah, so the OG patch was slapped on the samples.  A pretty common practice with a new sample…..

                                            Interesting stuff here. Thanks for the honest review Neph. The overwhelming expectation in the jeans market now is stretch. This is easily proven by looking at the websites of Levi's or Wrangler, where the majority of jeans offerings are now various percentages of stretch material.

                                            The fact is the stretch jeans are more comfortable when new. Most people don't have the patience for their jeans to slowly become that way as it is with 100% cotton.

                                            Personally I won't be giving up my all cottons anytime soon. Call it pride, stubbornness, what have you. Maybe even as sort of an anti-trend. But if I were to consider stretch jeans, it would probably be these.

                                            It also expands the IH brand to people who may not have been interested before. This is a good thing. The traditional fabrics aren't going anywhere for us old-heads. But it is bridging the gap to the new-heads which are essential for the survival of the brand.
