IH-777S-21 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Tapered Jeans - Indigo
-
On the 666, if I choose tag size 34 the measurement chart shows 34.5" for the waist. However, if I buy a new pair of 666 21oz at the 34.5" waist right out of the package, then won't they be slightly too large after a few wears when we account for the stretch? All the other dimensions are spot on with my favorite pair of jeans, including the rise, thigh, knee and hem. Thanks!
A 34.5” pair will likely end up at least 35.5”. So a belt would likely be of help.

About to give these their first wash. About 10.5 months of wear, but mostly around the office. Was trying to see how long I could go, but it’s time! LOL
Comparing with an unworn pair of 634S-A that I’ve been holding off wearing. About time to break those in too!

Random Question I know but does anyone else get pulled aside at the airport in security because their 21oz denim is to so thick?
Every time they think I have something hidden and my jeans are empty. -
I'm going to order a pair of these and would like to get them hemmed right away. I am pretty confident I will like the fit. I have the 777 in the 14 oz indigo denim and I got about a half inch of shrink in the inseam after a few machine washes. Always hang dried. Can I expect about the same amount with the 21 oz denim?

Mine had shrinkage right around there if I remember correctly. Maybe a bit less than 1/2”

An oldie, but goodie

@goosehd Hey Dennis, how’s it going?
I still browse the forums, just more as a creep lurking in the shadows these days

Hey, I found a pair of 35's at Withered Figs and ordered them. Got them today and they fit great. The top block is snug, knees and calves fine, thighs are a little loose maybe.
I am looking forward to breaking these in. This selvedge denim is very intriguing to me. I am brand new to selvedge and in the past month have gone from 0 to 5 pairs. All different and all comfy/unique in their own way. The IH 777S fit me the best and I have the slubby's and now the 21 oz. I have my eye on the 777N and hope to snag a pair of those later this summer when they restock. Buying over the internet is a bit challenging until you get your size/dimensions worked out.
I am beginning to get what this Selvedge is all about. Most of my time is spent in the office as a construction manager and business developer. My denim will never see the kind of use that some of you put yours through. I do expect these jeans to become more comfortable with age and last a long time.
I'll post some photos later. I do appreciate the friendly atmosphere here on the forum.
So much denim, so little time. -
