IH-888S-RE - 14.7oz Eco Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut

[jerkules]

Thanks for the helpful responses guys. @neph93 , you’ve convinced me to keep them and see how they settle in. Not that I needed too much convincing as I bloody love the fabric. Also, the reasonable price plus a gift voucher I’d forgotten about made these an absolute steal, so I really wanted them to work! Once these get beaten up I’ll post some more pics, and will branch out into more IH denims. Into the wormhole I go…

Im the king of slow fades but my pair is finally starting to show some change. This denim molds really well despite being such a light weight so I might get some decent combs which I never seem to get. I’m pretty excited to see them by the end of spring.

Worn all summer, have had these since they came out (18 mo?). 5-7 washes, I don’t track these things. Time to give these a break and move on to the XHSIB.

Pics are on previous page.

They look great. Btw we have the same Pendleton and jeans so I thought for a second that those were my pics. I think I’m working too much [emoji6]

Both your posts make me very pleased I grabbed these jeans. I’ve been wearing mine constantly for the last couple of weeks and there’s already this nice hint of high-contrast blue showing in some areas. The rise also causes lots of creasing around the upper thighs. I can just tell the whiskers will look amazing a year from now.
@tvenuto your photos look like they’re fading almost to a kind of silvery grey. I hope this is a realistic representation and I’m looking forward for mine to evolve like yours.

Took a trip down to Gosport today and picked up a pair of these.

Sized down 2 sizes to a size 30. Bit snug but can already feel them relaxing.

Great to see everyone. Big thanks to @Chesson for helping me decide on these.

Absolute pleasure @spitfiredealer 

I give them three months before you decide they need a run in the day job 

[spitfiredealer]

Ha 3 months would be nearly spring time so some lighter weight denim could well be needed at work!

Fantastic to see you and Ollie today.  Sorry I could not spend more time with you.  Please don't leave it so long next time…..

[Anesthetist]

They look good on you. I went TTS as I was unfamiliar with the cut but I’ll def size down next time.

Thanks man. Yours look great too. TTS definitely gives a comfy fit. I went down because of the rear rise on the 888 can be a bit much IMO. Definitely a very versatile cut.

Yeah I went TTS in mine and wish I had sized down, but alas! They are very comfy and looked great for my 20s inspired outfit on NYE.

A little Eco evo….

Looks a bit like early UHR evo. Big, soft rolling fades. I like it.

888RE at around 5ish months of wear. First real wash will be today. Sorry for the subpar pics, it’s super dark outside ️

Dark, or not, it looks like a damn good start to me.

Anyone else still wearing these? It’s been a hot summer here, but we have about a week of temps in the 80’s so game on.

Your pair is looking good, Matt! I’ve been wearing mine a lot this summer. Gotta go for comfort, these days.

I’m wearing mine right now.

Initially I thought they were going to be fairly fast faders, but they’ve dug their heels in and are proving otherwise.
