Well if anyone would know it would be you @Giles you said your first pair drew blood for the first two weeks!! Haha. Literally, or metaphorically??
Literally. I was doing a lot of physical work at the time (moving in to and outfitting our first office)…..

Damn @Giles i just read through that whole thread. That was a really cool look into the history of IHUK. Thanks for sharing that. I can only imagine how proud you are to have brought this IH name to the larger world and grown from such humble beginnings!! Don’t fuck it up @Alex haha. Totally joking. With the amount my closet has grown recently all signs point to continued success! Can’t thank y’all enough for doing things as well as ya do!!!

Got mine hemmed by shipping to railcar. Total cost including shipping was 70 usd.
I'm satisfied and I think the cost was fair. But yeah next time I'm definitely ordering them hemmed.Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

They hem on a vintage Union Special and charge $20 plus shipping. I had them do my IH-666S-21od and the came out perfect.

Weird streaky white stains. I'm not even sure they're stains. I tried washing in the washing machine to no avail, twice.
What can stain jeans like this? Never had it happen to any other pair. -
I have no idea as to what may have caused that,but I’ve had stuff happen to jeans,in the wash,that totally freaked me out at the time,and a few months later you don’t even notice it. Just adds character. No one else will ever notice it. Can’t imagine someone coming up to you and going…Dude what the fuck happened to your jeans? Hope I made you smile.

A month's worth of wears on these, now. Some very slight fades starting to appear around the top block, especially near the pockets, and the knee combs are setting in.
These are my first IHs, and are already the best jeans I've owned by a country mile. But in hindsight I feel like I should have gone another size up just for the extra thigh room. I don't know how visible it is in the photos, but the crotch sits pretty low on me because I just can't pull them any higher. Mildly dreading having to stretch them back out once I finally wash them.

How are people storing them?
After breaking a hanger I got them to hang by a belt loop on a hook. But they're so heavy I feel like leaving it there is going to stretch the jeans in some weird way and break the belt loop.To the poster above, I'm in the opposite boat. I wish I sized down. You definitely feel looseness more on these pants than lighter ones since there's 0 drape.

Getting out of them, leaving them on the floor next to the bed and putting them back on in the morning…
