the big flannel drop recently
That's the biggest (non-sale) day this year......
-
Wow that’s crazy @Giles
Can only second what @WhiskeySandwich said. You guys are impeccable! -
Been waiting on these for what feels like forever! My 8301S were my favorite jeans, but after a certain age and a kid for some reason they don't really fit anymore. Haha
-
Got a pair, having hummed and hawed over tag size. Thanks to Graham.
Will sell a pair of 555 SBG, which I don't wear too much.
-
After many shirt and jacket purchases, this is my first pair of jeans from IH. The posted measurements are perfect for me, so I didn’t feel the need to specify any measurement request. Is there much variation with the jeans measurements? Or should I be good with a random pair?
-
@boogersquish if the posted measurements are good for you, there shouldn't be much variation. They post middle-of-the-range/average out of the lot. I only try to specify certain measurements when I know I'd like something toward one end or the other of the range. And also i'm ornery like that.

The CS team will reach out to you with measurements of the ones they pull for you anyway.....

I just got the second to last pair of 42s. I'm hoping to lose some weight to fit these just right, but I had to pull the trigger once I saw them selling out fast.
-
Damn, these went quick
-
Wow many sizes are already sold out…any ETA on a restock? ; )

getting super psyched, mine should be in today. its going to be hard to wait till 1 Jan since i registered for II4. The wife is going to wrap them and put em under the tree lol. Great fit @Richard
-
@Richard These look really nice. 888 is the only style I can handle.
I got the last 30, and I’m telling myself these are the final pair of IH jeans that I’m buying for the foreseeable future. Way too many in my drawer.
How do they feel? The general consensus is comfortable and soft right out of the bag. If they are even at the same level of the 21 flagship and 21 ib, I’ll be a happy customer. Those are so comfy.
-
Jeans just arrived, I'm still at work, and my wife just messaged me: "Your jeans just came in. I'm wrapping them and putting them under the tree, Sucker!" I sure am glad y'all don't put invoices in the bag...

@drewfonse id say this fabric doesn’t stretch quite as much as the indigo 21oz, but there’s not much in it. Still as soft, maybe takes a bit of wear to get there but not much. It’s brilliant stuff!

Can’t wait!

@drewfonse Love them. The high rise is amazing. Wearable and comfortable from the get go, even the slightly tight waist. So much better, for me, than the 21oz 555 SBG, which are still like a rock despite endless wear and washes.
-
Interesting about the waist. The pair that I ordered (processing) has a waist measure that is ever so slightly smaller than my normal 888 waist.
Have you noticed any give in the waist? Early days, obviously.
I know the 21s is known for opening up, but some of the other denim by IH doesn’t as much. The natural indigo in particular hasn’t , for me at least.
Your pair looks great!
-
Based on previous comments in this thread and the product description, I went for a waist size that is an inch smaller than the ideal waist size I would like to end up with when it's fully stretched. So I hope I didn't make a huge mistake since I gather from some more recent comments in this thread that the stretch wouldn't be as much as an inch in the end? Either way, I stacked my order, so I'll find out when the time has come.
