IH-555S-18 - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim Slim Cut Jeans - Indigo

[WhiskeySandwich]

@T4920 They look very different from my 18oz vintage, but your wash routine has really brought out so much of the crosshatch texture that I love about this denim. It makes me want to wash mine more.

[T4920]

@WhiskeySandwich in all honesty, they may be the original 18oz... bought them pre-owned and as far as I can see, both used the same leather patch...

Maybe @Giles could weigh in?

Either way, I agree that they look amazing

Not sure the 555 was ever made in the OG 18oz, and the fading looks vintage-y to me

The patch proves that yours are vintage, then. @T4920

[T4920]

@Alex Thanks for the info detective Alex

[aimes]

Are these tough to fade?

[Palmer]

@aimes No. This denim fades fast.

[aimes]

@Palmer Thanks! And its a lighter/brighter blue?

[Alex]

@aimes fades kind of like this...

^still my favorite fades of all time.

[T4920]

@october-rust me too, the proverbial denim dragon I'll be chasing until the end

[aimes]

@Alex Thanks Alex, it's hard to tell in the photos, but these are more on the lighter blue side?

[Alex]

Maybe a shade, but not drastically

[doubletee]

Stretched out a bit

[Daniel San]

Looks still pretty tight in the top block mate
How many wears?

[doubletee]

@Daniel-San only worn a few times for a few hours. Feels better than it did and hopefully a bit more stretch to come

[injunjack]
