IH-666-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo/Black

Thanks, Hoppy! It's by no means a perfect fit to everyone, but is generally what I was going for with them. If they were a little narrower in the top block waist and hips, rise left alone, and thighs just a little trimmer and/or tapering sooner or slightly more to the knee it would be about right. Maybe that would be the old Beatle Busters that some folks want brought back?
I love darn toughs. Havent wont another sock since I first learned about them around 2013. Some of them are still that old, been through countless washes and miles, and some are only just now starting to show wear in the soles. They have a great unconditional warranty as well, but I'm very hesitant to use that for replacement….these definitely earned their all of their value.

Excellent choice, I absolutely love mine. They looked and fit odd for a day or 2 and then start d to morph around me . Give it some time and wear, it will show you why you bought them! And don't wash them for a while, I am super new to this but I would have them completely shaped to your body before you wash or soak again. I hope to see you around! Take Care

Nice socks too, @Ghost-Cut !
Three darn tough fans in as many posts.

Been wearing these for a week now after the soak and maybe it's in my head, but they seem to keep fitting better. I wouldnt mind the top block being a tad narrower, but not sure I could have tolerated a full size down.
Regardless, finally took them in to get hemmed and they left a little extra on them despite me telling them the exact length, but perhaps they're still alright? Should I go back and have them take more off? At most there's maybe .25-.5" left of shrink to happen, likely less, and I dont always wear boots.Also, don't mind the ridiculous pandemic hair.

Agree with previous answer, leave them as is. They look awesome

They look good to me.

I've worn these jeans almost every day for the past few months. Looked down at my lap today and realized that they're starting to look pretty cool. Here's a lazy pic.

The XHSiB seems to produce high contrast fades. Nice one there ^
-
Looking real good @Palmer–-would you consider these slow faders or fast faders?
-
Thanks for that @Kasi
-
I would also say that compared to the XHS, this one seems to show the contrast much faster. I'm just roughly 14 days with my XHSiB pair and I can already see some electric blue popping up.

They fade pretty quick for Iron Heart. I think the 18oz Vintage denim fades faster though.

Those look really rad, @Palmer . Really stoked for the 634s in this denim to come in, had the itch for a while.
