IH-777S-142bb - 14oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered Jeans - Black/Black
-
Very quiet out here!
I ordered these about half a year ago, but didn't actually wear them until today.
Here are some fit pics. They were very snug and hard to button up when I put them on this morning. At the end of the day, they've already loosened up quite a bit around the waist.
I like them a lot! So does my almost-4 year old son. I think.
-
Looking good @Lowlander. They will be just fine with a bit of wear.
-
Thank you, neph!

This pair has recently caught my eye.
Has anyone on the forum been wearing these regularly? I can’t seem to find any fade pictures of the lighter weight fabric.
-
My pair has about 80 wears, so doesn't have much to show yet. But I remember from way back that @Alex posted some good fades of a pair in this fabric…

@Fluster.Cluck So here is my pair, but as I mentioned I'm there are others out here who have more heavily faded examples.
-
@Alex 's fade pics convinced me to pick up a pair of these. These will be great winter jeans for my gloomy, semi-maritime climate.

Hey @Lowlander and @BlueBlood how are these bad boys treating you. I just got a pair and they were hard to do up at first and pretty uncomfy. Sitting in them now and they have certainly relaxed a bit. Just wondering if they stretched and became comfy for you guys?
Cheers!

Hi @Deputy, mine were pretty unforgiving to begin with, esp. around my waist. They have relaxed and stretched a bit, but I don't think they stretch as much or as easily as the flagship 21 oz denim.

Thanks for the feedback mate! Are they comfortable for you now @Lowlander?
-
Yes, I'd say so.

Mine are working out well. I bought them true-to-size and wear a belt, so I never had an issue with fit in the waist.
The fabric is very soft and comfortable.
-
Thanks guys. Looking forward to the journey!

Which denim fades more quickly, this or the SBG denim? I can’t wait any longer for the new Superblack selvage so I need to find something to buy me some time. The slower-fading the better.

Had a small write up about this denim, but time ran out so won’t go into it again.
Denim after the waist and legs got taken in. Knees to thigh and waist still ended up somewhat larger than expected but they ended up fitting better than stock fit.
After a week of wear
Edited to add - although I normally use Indigo Proof (IP) for alterations, IP was not used for this alteration. It took a few weeks longer than IP and due to stipulations measurements were not accurate, certain areas not even close. For ex: waist was 1/2’” looser than stated and it didn’t look like knee from thigh was taken in at all (measured several areas from knee to thigh IH way before sending in), I opted for full-leg taper. From past experience, IP does their best to accurately alter denim as stated. This didn’t come out as expected, but since I’m growing horizontally I will continue to wear as is. Not necessarily disappointed, but kinda expect measurements to be somewhat closer. Will not say who did the alterations, except for the fact that it was sent to the east coast, but will continue to wear this pair in rotation.
