IH-777-SST - 21oz Shinayaka Selvedge Denim - Super Slim Tapered - Indigo
-
Thanks for chiming in, Reuben! And thanks for giving me the right word for this – "twill stretch"!
Based on yours and Ann's feedback, I'll probably stick with the 888 cut and probably hold off on the SST for now. I just picked up a couple of pair of 888 so I really don't need another pair of 888. I was only considering another pair if it was in a different cut, but if I size up enough to get the thigh to work, the waist is too large.
And with these 502ib that just got announced...
Thanks again, you two!

Awesome long cotton fibres… surely [emoji1]
How are you finding the SST otherwise?

Loving it so far. I was wearing my 666S-16’s most of the summer but I’ve been back in these for a couple weeks, and they’ll be my only (non-job) pair until 25oz season comes.

So I just ordered these as my first pair of ironheart jeans. The dimensions for them are perfect as is for the 38. I measured my fav pair of jeans and they are 36” that tape out to 37” which means the ones I ordered will be spot on.
So my question is this: it says that they will stretch out up to 1” which would be too big so to offset tht has anyone tried washing and drying hot to shrink them back and hve good results? Do they actual stretch out that much? Or should I order the 36 which tapes out at 35.2 and with the stretch would be good. I would just be vary of shrinking them.

They don’t shrink. You could wash them at 90C and all you would do is destroy the torque in the elastic in which case they would stretch an awful lot very quickly.
If you can do the thighs on the W36 I’d go for that or take a look at the 555 dims. The SST denim will stretch an inch at least.

I messaged about the 555 sst and asked if it would be restocked and they said no - even tho it says continuous production

Things change… I wonder if the restocks are extra stock from Japan made during the first run. The decision may have been taken not to make a second run.
The 666 in this denim would be my preferred choice. The thigh is just too toight for me though.

I like the slim tapered not really a fan of straight

Do the pants actually stretch up to an inch? In your experience

Do a search for «Shinayaka» on the forum and you’ll find my blog thread. I got to thrash tje sample pair of 555’s. You can read about exactly what happened there.
Short answer is yes they really do, but not like regular 21oz.

I'd say so. I didn't take measurements but I gotta pull my pants up if I don't wear my belt tight enough and when I got them I had to suck in to button the top initially.

Hats off to Alex at the store. And Giles who was chatting me on the IM. These guys go above and beyond to make sure their clients are happy. Pulled some pants and measured and found me a pair to my size liking. Thank you so much guys. You are awesome.

Been wearing mine helping my mom do some farm work, rubber boot fades.

Those are some truly unique fades, Denimminer! Mind me asking what size you're wearing? How do you find the fit?
-
These are looking great. I love that you’d never know they were anything other than than well worn, heavy weight selvedge denim.
