IH-777-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered Jeans - Indigo/Black
-
@twin question for you. which of the two XHSib fit do you prefer between the 555 and the 777. did you have to make any size adjustments going from the higher to the lower rise? I'm probably going to pull the trigger on a pair and was just wondering what you thought.
-
@alexswords I like the fit of the 777 more then the 555. A little tighter on the top block. Went with my regular size 34. I would pull the trigger on the 777S.
-
Copped! Loved my 888XSHib, I enjoy the 777 cut a little more. IB is such a great denim
Can’t wait for them
-
@twin you wasted no time getting your new pair of IBs to fade! Are they really that blue (back pocket edges) once they start shedding indigo? Looks fantastic
@kkibbey23 congrats! This denim must be that good since it seems to be the consensus that one must have more than one pair of the IB
-
@RoxRocks86 The back pocket edges are that blue. Combs are showing some electric blue also.

Man @twin your pics got me champing at the bit to wear these
@thomas01 They look great!
@alexswords all i know from my one time trying these on is that I took your advice and went down a size, lucky for me they offered a 35 in these, and I can get them on, but they fit like a tight glove. In a good way
From the initial try on, they are as close to my dream fit as it comes. I've come to love the RGT SK fit and these are pretty close…
I'm still curious what the 19oz 777sib are going to look like measurement wise. And if they come out before October 10th, I might have to check them out too. SO many jeans to choose from!In other words, I'm super excited to beat the crap out of these, come October!

Just picked up a pair. Very excited.

Received today. For real, those buttons are tough at first!
-
@pacreamer have you tried the suggested method of stretching the button hole with needle nose pliers? Helps a ton!

Yeah, it totally helped!

Finally got these back from Indigo Proof!
Measurements in sanforized unwashed state
Quick pics before hot wash
Seems Rain is not only a denim wizard but time traveler as well & did alterations on these before IH sent them to me
Machine washing them right now on hot w/spin & will dry them in the dryer on high heat for 30 min. If they’re still damp will just let them sun bathe till completely dry.
Hot wash + dryer measurements to come.
Will probably do a 2nd wash + dry when I have time to get all shrinkage out. Hoping these shrink as much or as close to regular XHS.
-
@RoxRocks86 looking so fucking awesome dude so stoked to see you wear these in your own unique way.
-
Is the one inch shrinkage pretty consistent? If so, the tag 38 in this pair looks ideal. My 555OD is 19in.
-
Looking good @RoxRocks86
They did a nice job at Indigo Proof. -
Thank you fellas
Here are some post wash fit pics & measurements
Idk if it’s the soft, smooth hand of the ib’s but these sure feel less intimidating to break in compared to regular XHS. Love that they’re so different.
