IH-777-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered Jeans - Indigo/Black

[Peter]

Time to at least semi-retire my beloved PIH7ANN-R. The XHSib denim is fucking awesome, and after two days of wear they feel great. Not even that uncomfortable! The button holes were an absolute bitch, but once they started to give it all made sense.

I didn't measure them pre-soak, and I only measured the inseam post soak (hot, 45 min). I did get a good inch off the inseam which was a bit surprising. I feel like the waist didn't shrink much at all, but I never measured it.

@Peter
That pronto pair is insane

I kept my pronto as collection

[Peter]

@Kasi Thanks! And damn, that is one fine collection. Always been a big fan of the Pronto collabs. Even though I only own the one pair.. On paper all their fits look great (and obviously the denim too)!

@Peter wow those red arcuates are awesome!!!! The red and light indigo contrast in a lovely fashion.

[Kasi]

Those red are tonal done in the arc…

Well I received my bad boy’s today!:

They fit real snug, I will do a pre-soak while wearing them tomorrow to prevent excessive  shrinkage.
The buttons killed my fingers today and found out that opening and closing them without wearing was the trick to loosen them up.
After the photo session I put on my 555-02 and boy they are so comfy [emoji23]!!
I was so nervous to put them on that I cuffed them at the exact same length [emoji23]

@Peter your pronto’s are banging! If that’s an indication of how your xhsib’s will turn out this thread is one to be watched!

@bob_z fit looks ace & fantastic shots! That deep saturated indigo color looks amazing outdoors.

@bob_z I'd say you are golden sir. That is a brilliant fit.

@bob_z  777s looking great. Now it is time to rock them

[Peter]

@Oaktavia my favourite detail about them as well, glad you noticed it 

@RoxRocks86 cheers! I'm a bit of a slow fader, but I usually commit to one pair which leads to some pretty good fades in the end. Do come back in a couple of years haha..

@bob_z fit looks great, well done!

[twin]

They are here.

XHSib is the GOAT.  Great pics, Twin.  Really captures the true depth of this denim.

[bob_z]

Thnx for all the comments guys.
Somehow I got the feeling that this could be a rather busy forum page… [emoji23].

XHSib indeed is GOAT!!! At least to me it is.

These must be fun to destroy.

@dinobarnesberlin:

These must be fun to destroy.

It's surely fun to try… This denim can take a lot of abuse  :o

Next pair will be 25oz for sure…not sure which version yet, but I think the struggle to see who's boss would be a blast.

@hoppy_IPA  This shows the wear & tear on old denim with the new denim.

[twin]

Now the fit pics.

@twin
Looking good. I like the fit.

@peter your Pronto's are amazing!  Those are some hall of fame level fades.
@Kasi your collection has me in serious denim envy - quite impressive!
@bob_z and @twin both of your fits look spot on!  I love how the different light in the pictures brings out different qualities in this denim.  There is an amazing complexity to the XHSib where in some light it looks jet black, in other really dark navy, and in other light it seems to have a slight purple cast to it.
