IH-777S-21mb - 21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Tapered Cut Jeans – Mad Black
-
Thanks guys!
Being curious to how this denim would look with a little fading going on, chopped them to hem length & gave the cut-offs some concrete love then threw it in the washer and dryer.
Pics after they dried:
The denim is still very dark and more black in real life than the photo’s suggest, but the roping and areas with fades do have that nice pop of blue to them. This denim is gonna fade beautifully! Can’t wait to see someone do them justice. I’m holding off on my pair for a few months giving & XHS some love atm

Yep if you’re familiar with 21oz. OD’s they have that same soft smooth feeling.
Hoping the 888XHSMBs do well so other cuts can get the same treatment

Great to hear. That’s what I was hoping for.

The return of the MBMF’s!
Just got these back from Indigo Proof earlier this week where they’ve been shrunk to perfection.
I was so excited to wear them when they arrived that I threw them on before heading to work. Figured nothing would happen as it was a cruise day just drilling and installing cabinet pulls and aligning doors for kitchen cabs and bathroom vanities. Well, the cabinets were white. These are some inky mf’s!

Indigo dyed white cabinets is actually a great idea. Side note: the jeans look spot on @RoxRocks86

Looking good @RoxRocks86

@RoxRocks86 - just bravo for the well thought out pic set & before/after measurements. can’t wait for you to thrash this pair & let us know how the Mad Black fades
-
Indigo Proof does a nice job–
Give em hell !! -
@RoxRocks86 the Supacuff before alteration is hilarious
… that is an awesome alteration job they are doing. Can‘t really tell on the pictures but do they keep the selvage altering the jeans? -
@jordanscollected you are on to something
must be all that time in the kitchen. & they would look great with nickel, brass or copper hardware esp when it gets all that awesome patina@Filthy thanks Mike! Now the tough decision on which denim to keep in the rotation ::)
@motojobobo thank you! Quite pleased with the way they turned out
@Paul9221 Yes, full leg taper also
@hoppy_IPA appreciate the feedback on the layout. For someone that’s lazy, scrolling thru large photos or going back pages to see a comparison is too much work
@dinobarnesberlin they will get a nice hell for the time being…they’re just so pretty right now
@seven-k lolol I’m vertically challenged
& the inner leg is where they do the tapering work so the selvedge side is safe from any slicing and dicing.Kinda hard to see the selvedge due to the black magic dying process but it’s there lurking in the dark.

@RoxRocks86 okay I see … very nice
... Indigo Proof really does an awesome job! -
they're always pretty when they're new

From a wearers standpoint the mad black appears as a regular pair of black denim, but these pics tell a different story. Electric blues on the first signs of knee fades coming in and in the sun at different angles the various hues shine thru.

It‘s almost like they are overdyed Indigo/Blacks … interesting. The fades are awesome coming in like that though.

Unfortunate. Thanks Giles.
