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

[spitfiredealer]

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

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…..

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.

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.

I agree. I saw small changes pretty quickly but they seem like they’re in for the long haul.

Thanks, y’all! These jeans have been my go-to pair this summer.

I have about 8 months of wear on my pair and I’ve noticed a pretty rapid break down at the hemline. They dont hit the ground so I’m a little confused why it’s happening. I wonder if it’s just the nature of the denim?

I am thinking I should start a small cuff to keep them from unraveling? I’m not sure if a hemline could be darned or if my tailor would have to bring the hem up (which I dont particularly want).

Still love this pair, I just want to rock them as long as I can. They are starting to give up their indigo and the darker weft looks great.
