IH-555S-21od - 21oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Jeans - Indigo Overdyed Black

@tnjyoung Yes they'd undoubtedly been machine washed several times, in my experience the overdyed won't give you the 'electric' blue contrast you see with our Indigo/Black denim and as @peregrine mentions, might be worth giving a IB denim a shot

Not gonna lie, kinda missed the roominess of the 805’s while wearing these today.
I guess this is what I am looking for. I consider this a very good contrast and I was wondering if these jeans will ever be able to get to this level?

@tnjyoung The 21od fades softly no matter how you wash them. You might want to wait for the IH-555S-21ib if you want contrast fades.
Thank you!

Those are standard indigo 21oz. Not overdyed. So the short answer is no. The long answer is maybe, if you wear them like Rox does (hard), and do it for longer.

Haha! Touché and thank you!

Well, I finally received my IH-555S-21od denim today. I have a question…will the red "W" show up with wear? It is covered in the black dye at the moment to the point it is almost unnoticeable. I really love the red letter and hope it becomes more apparent as these lose color. As for the fit, the 555 are my new jam. They seem to allow a lot more room for "my junk". My 666s seems to mash my junk down and I am all the time trying to pull on my fly to relieve pressure in that area (when no one is looking of course). My 777s are the most generous, but I can't decide if it is because I ordered them too large, or if they are cut with a little more room for the family jewels. As for the 555, while they are clearly "tighter" over all, they seem to stretch and give in the right places and just feel great. I will upload a fit pic later this evening.

I haven't washed my ODs much, so I can't comment on how much the red W pops. My guess would be that it'd become a bit more prominent with wears and washes, but maybe not as bright as if it'd never been overdyed.
The 555 definitely has higher rise and slightly roomier overall top block than the 666 though. The xtra room for the boys is for sure noticeable

Thank you! I am not planning to wash so I was referring to color reveal based on wear alone. Oh well, I am loving the fit. Here they are (with and without sun/jacket) within 20 minutes of putting them on.

Solid fit on your pair @tnjyoung
As for the red W popvulture is correct it’ll slowly make a appearance as your pair sheds dye.
Ended up checking my pair which has been washed many times.

@tnjyoung Love the jacket! Also fits you perfectly.

Thank you so much! I have had it for about two years. Still trying to break it in. The "shine" will dissipate over time and then I think it will really begin to look good! It is very comfortable and it does fit me perfectly! Have a great day!

I have just noticed something as my IH-555-21ods have begun to break in. It is almost as if they are made of suede or something. I can run my hand across them in one direction and they turn light. Run it across in the opposite direction and they turn darker. So far they are fading almost "gray-like", with just a tiny amount of blue pigment showing through. Just thought you guys may want to know about this characteristic. Pretty cool.

Pulled these out of the closet to snap some files. Definitely sealed the coffin on the 555 cut for me. Crotch blowouts galore. Worn during '21/22. My all time favorite combo even if I don't fit the cut anymore. Love how the OD progressed, the blue arches, the hazy grey/blue of the fade. Chef'sKiss

Absolutely awesome work on those od’s @jskelton !

@Alex interested to know what makes Denim high contrast or low contrast in regards to fades ?
21oz OD a low contrast fade ? Or does it boil down to the amount of washes ,
Less washes would be they be more pronounced? Cheers mateIG : @luvthefades
