IH-888S-SLB - 16oz Slubby Selvedge Denim Relaxed Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo

[Blueband]

I got mine last March, been in my wearing rotation ever since. In the last few months, I've been wearing them a lot. They are a great fit, for us slightly older chaps, and so comfy.

@Giles hey so I have been eyeing these for a while now. I'm a 888 loyalist now and love my 21 oz but South Carolina heat has prevented me from wearing them as much. Can you elaborate on what makes these better for hot weather?

[Giles]

The slubby denim is the most breathable denim we make.

@rakinhoq7 meaning out of all of the denim they make, the slubby is the easiest to wear in warm weather, but not necessarily great to wear when it is hot out. The jeans are not designed for heat, but they are not as hot/swampy in the summer compared to the other heavyweight varieties. In my opinion, all jeans are too hot to wear when it's over 80/85F and a deal breaker in high humidity. Other folks disagree, but I break out my easy shorts when its too humid or hot for me.

All the pictures look amazing, everyone seems to agree that they are the most suited for warm weather, and since spring is slowly coming, I wonder when will be the restock?

Getting warmer and warmer. Any update on the restock?

@karol these are on our list of things we want to re-run, but nothing in production at present

@AdamJ Thanks!
Then I guess this summer I will stick to the IH-725-KHA and the IH-729-KHA

[Karol]

@AdamJ any news here?

[AdamJ]
