IH-555-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo/Black

@Filthy:
Been trying to consistently wear these for at least a few hours a day before the Arizona heat kills my chances of wearing them outdoors.
Im really liking the high contrast and the deep blue/black hues that come through at certain spots.
On the other hand, they are also softening up quite nicely! Hopefully i can get them OD soft before they go into hibernation.
Same situation here and my problem in VA is humidity for a solid 3 or 4 months.
Mine are already very soft for only wearing them almost a month casually (2 soaks). The feel of them on the hand & against the legs. But still defying gravity and rigid.. interesting juxtapositionThe world's most amazing fades are from the world's most humid regions…. all of the "holy shit" fades are from Thailand. So you are at an advantage from my point of view. The fibers of your jeans are like a barometer. The more rough, the higher the humidity. The higher the humidity the more friction and indigo transfer ther is. Use it to your advantage and fuck comfortability.
That very hardcore…

I've often thought about about getting some 25oz but have been skeptical about the heat in Northern AZ. If you can do it in Phoenix I can do It here!

the heat in Northern AZ.
C'mon, northern Arizona doesn't get that hot. What town are you in?

Oh yeah man I'm definitely taking a page from their book this summer. I'm not doing irrigation work anymore so I can enioy these pants without literally being on the cusp of heat exhaustion haha

I'm going to work in Puerto Rico Sunday and I am looking forward to the heat and humidity.

If you top out at 100 degrees then it should be more than manageable. I wore 21oz in small doses during the summer. Pretty rough but not impossible, so i'm hoping a softer 25oz will cooperate. 21oz is not terrible because its quite breathable, i haven't experienced 25oz to know just yet.

It might be just me, because I am a lunatic, but I think 25 oz denim is about as comfortable in the heat than anything else. The UHR is very uncomfortable in the heat and humidity (especially the old UHR). Bat wings city!

I guess ill report back in a few months!

25oz year round here in Houston.

Yep, pretty sure we are.

Jesus. Hopefully he stays the hell off this forum, otherwise he’s probably bankrupted himself buying 20 more pairs in all the other awesome denims you bastards keep releasing.

All your gear is 10/10 so I for one will be keeping a keen eye on the future updates.
