Now that's some finely faded slub goodness right there!
Just checked the site and the 777's are out of stock in my size right now–maybe that's a good thing.

I think I'm sold on these as my next pair though. @Giles I'm pretty sure I've seen you mention that these are very forgiving in the summer. Where I live I can get away with the 21-25oz almost year around. I think these would be the missing piece for me in the spring-summer. That'll be my justification anyway

Yeah, they are probably our easiest denim to wear in the summer….

Between the fabric and the loose top my Prontos (888) almost feel like wearing linen pants. They are unworn and “cellared” but if I come around to the fit they’ll get hemmed, then heavy wear in a future summer.

This is my rotation plan for 2023:
Fade the 634 Anni as long as I can, wearing them through spring and early summer, then switch to the 666 Slubby cut.
Fade the 16oz in summer and autumn, rotating back to my hardly worn 888 19oz Lefty for the cooler seasons.

Now the conundrum is when the 16oz Slubbies will be replenished

I appreciate your opinions on this all I'm truly convinced. @alexpupin I did that rotation, sir. I am newish to denim and was always turned off by slub; however, I've come to really love its character.

Hey everyone, I'm new to Iron Heart denim and am looking to get some opinions on this fit. This is an 888 cut in size 32 and it's very snug in the waist, especially when sitting down, but perfect everywhere else. How much stretch can I expect here? I'm looking for a higher rise cut that's a slim straight or slight taper and the 888 fit the bill. When I tried on a size 33 in store it felt like there was too much excess fabric in the seat, so I'm hoping these stretch enough or I'm thinking I might need a different cut.

Welcome @Bills ! Fit looks spot on. You should easily get an inch of stretch in the waist, if not more. These stretch easily.

From the IH-888S-SLB product page:

https://www.ironheart.co.uk/bottoms/ih-888s-slb.html

_**- The waist will stretch out approximately one inch with wear

• Other dimensions will stretch proportionately to the waist**_

Awesome ty, any tricks to speed it up? This fit is so good everywhere else it might even motivate me to finally lose a half inch in the waist. Can't wait to see this fabric fade, so much character to it.

Not being a smart ass but wear them. The slub stretches out pretty readily IMO.

Boom!

@JDelage, @atm23 - how is the fit of the 1955S-SLB vs the 1955S? Any significant differences? (I’m in the UK and considering ordering from The Shop, so I need to get it right first time - I have a pair of 1955S that fit well so aiming to match that )

many thanks - Bill

Hi IH Team,

Any thoughts on a 16oz SLB indigo/black release?  In the 555 cut?

[AdamJ]

@willsonporter We do not have any plans for an Indigo/Black slubby denim at this moment in time. As a general rule of thumb though, when we release a new denim, we'll make it in all the core cuts
