IH-888S-142 - 14oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo

[Soleamp]

@SKT I'm by no means an expert on this and I'm just getting started on the XHS, but I do find them similar as they are both more tightly woven than the 21oz (those are my three IH denims).  Also, I like fades, but I'm not insane about no washing, or not doing anything to affect the creasing or other aspects of my fades, I just wear and wash when I feel like it.  So, after rambling on, I guess the fact that they have held the creases and faded nicely without much effort speaks for itself.  I'm really excited to see what the XHS do.

[SKT]

I think “tightly woven” is the key. I’m looking forward to being able to compare them myself someday soon. Good luck with the XHS’s!

[Soleamp]

@SKT I think you're right.  I believe I read here somewhere that Giles said the 25, 14 and 19 are the most durable (I think because the are all the tighter weave).  While definitely hotter, I actually prefer the tight weave.

Been dropping some weight lately and decided to see what happens if I boil my size 36.  I think I dropped them down at least 1 to 1.5 inches in the waist.  But the interesting thing is what happened to the patch.

Wow, it's crazy that the patch turned that dark.

Yeah.  And it was about half the original size.  It then hardened once it dried and I could just break it off.

[Choko]

When are we looking at a restock on these?

[Choko]

Any chances of a restock?

[Alex]

Yep, in the next few weeks

[Pufton]

Thought I’d post a few pictures of my 888s 142s.
I haven’t kept a count of wears or washes (dirty = wash) but have been wearing them quite often as my other pairs are either 21or 25oz.

RESTOCK

[drewfonse]

Got my pair yesterday and wore them for a few hours around the house. Perfection. I needed some lighter weight summer-y jeans and these are great. I’ll be alternating these with my 14oz Stevenson Carmel when it warms up

[WhiskeySandwich]

As much as I love my 21oz pairs, I had to get one of these as a summer pair for down the road. Gonna hold out till I can’t stands the heat, then these are going in to fill their role as heat beaters!

@WhiskeySandwich

The 14oz fabric is pretty damn brutal in the heat to be honest. This fabric is what I wear during the cool months here in the desert.
