Pronto 15th Anniversary 16oz Slubby Selvedge Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans

Oh yeah. Should be very easy. I got 2” of stretch in the sample pair. But I realize they didn’t have the patch sewn in either. I only need ~1.3” so I think I’ll be just fine. They get better and better with each wear. Looking forward to doing the proper hiking thrashing that I fell short of last year. Hopefully no major health issues get in the way this time. [emoji1695]

I’ve been wearing my pair pretty consistently but have had very slow fading. I took them out in the snow yesterday, got them pretty soaked through, and bam, colors start popping! It’s still pretty subtle in the pics but it’s coming along now. They also got nice and crispy again which I like in this type of denim. It is definitely of my favorite IH fabrics yet.

I love the dusty blue this pair is showing. They had their first wash this past week and surprised me with how stiff and snug they became. After about an hour, they gave up and are back to their slubby pajama phase. I friggin love this jean.

Apologies for the awkward angle.

@Anesthetist wow those are really coming along!  Whiskers looking dope & the overall color showing loads of depth

It’s official.  I’ve left slim fit behind.  I’m a relaxed fit guy now.  So long 666 and 777.  Thank you for your service.

I’m with this 100% ^^. Just sold off my pair of SBG 555s cause I just don’t wear them when I have more comfortable jeans at my disposal. Will replace em with 888 SBGs, it’s the comfiest cut I’ve ever experienced.

Iron Heart slubby is a nice Summer denim. Seems to breath & stretch really well.  Here’s a quick shot after the  2nd soak, 5ish weeks in.  These are tricky to photograph

@Matt @Fadez @Anesthetist is there any chance that a hot soak would slim these back up at all? I definitely should have sized down on them. Also please feel free to post some fade pictures…

[Matt]

I hot washed and dried the sample pair we wore to try to get the waist down.  Didn’t budge an inch for me.  I haven’t washed my Prontos yet.

[Matt]

You’d have to check with @Anesthetist though to see if the crotch shrinks back after he clearly stretched that area to its limit.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Thanks Matt, I don't mind a larger waist because they are a high cut. But I was wondering if the legs/ass area would slim back up.

[Anesthetist]

I think the waist came in a little but I dont recall the leg/seat changing all that much. Worth a shot though, the fabric keeps getting better and better.

Yeah, I didn’t notice any there either.  Sorry.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Not very reassuring. I'll just wait until they are ready to be washed and deal with it

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

I got these instead of soaking them. I'll let yinz know how I get on when I receive them. I love how they match the denim and stitch color. IDK if I'll be able to pull it off. But I don't mind for around the house.

Nice those are cool Mike- fit pic when they arrive!

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Absolutely
