IH-888S-SBG - 21oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise SBG

[Mizmazzle]

@natefreezy I edited my post above with more info.

Also, I have 555, 888, 666, and 634 cuts. I thought in the beginning the rise would be a concern with waist measurements. All my cuts end up at 33” waist. So I wouldn’t say the cut/ rise makes much if any difference on waist dimensions.

@Mizmazzle It's wild that all your cuts end up with the same waist. Do you wear them all at the same spot on your body? When I tried the 555, they were just too tight for me, but my 777's and 888's fit almost exactly the same except the rise. And because of the rise, my 777's end up being almost 36" and my 888's almost 34". They're all differen't tag sizes too lol. All my IH jeans have stretched at least 1.5".

@weftyarn yes!!!! God I love the feel of new denim coming out of that brown bag!!

[Mizmazzle]

@WhiskeySandwich maybe my hips and gut are the same circumference…haha.
I’m fairly thin, with an ever growing holiday ponch taking shape. Generally with my 888s I don’t wear a belt but with my 666 and 555s I do. All these particular cuts are a mid to high rise though as well. Maybe if I tried a 777 which is lower I’d need a larger waist???

@weftyarn now stay strong and join the indigo invitational

Well that’s the plan

Fit check positive, tags still attached.
Will now sign up

Here’s the 888 family, only missing my SBR OD.
Such a perfect cut imho! So comfortable but also nicely tapered and „grown up“.

@weftyarn that is a beautiful thing right there!

[Fades for future]

@weftyarn that sounds great and a nice family pic Mate. 888 and 634 cuts are not made for me but 555 and 777 are my Cuts. Can't wait to start fading cause it is my first SBG

[natefreezy]

Thanks all, have a pair of 34 SBGs on the way!

[Mizmazzle]

You’re going to love them, bro!!

[boogersquish]

Only a couple wears so far but I’m loving these. I think I nailed the fit with a 34.

[drewfonse]

Mine are on the way, I’m definitely going to give them some wear this Winter.

[weftyarn]

Excellent fit @boogersquish

[weftyarn]

Took some detail shots:

@weftyarn

Love the way these look. I’m glad I took the plunge on a pair of black IH. My collection is complete. Yeah right….

[choco]

@weftyarn that would be dope! Mine get back from hemming today. I'll be a couple days behind schedule, but hyped!

[drewfonse]

Got mine today, pure quality and they fit perfectly. Comfortably snug in waist. Really nice.

[natefreezy]

Hi all - fit question. Just got mine today and there's pretty comfortable out of the bag in a 34. I'd only want the waist to loosen up slightly, but would not say they're currently tight in the waist. Is that too big? Or do you only get an inch of stretch in the waist if you're actually stretching them out that much to fit? I don't have the 33 to compare but was worried they could be too small.

Again, these are pretty comfy right now just want to make sure they won't end up being too big...

Hi there. The 21oz streches in the pressure areas. Hard to tell from the picture but the fit looks pretty good to me. Dont hey stay on your waist right wirhout dropping or sagging? Gow much room.you have on the thigh?

[natefreezy]

Hi - thanks. Yes thigh is about perfect (not tight or loose, just slightly hugging) and they don't drop or sag. I'd say the fit currently is good but that's before any stretching. I wouldn't say waist is tight currently. With the 33 I'd definitely have to stretch into the right fit but not sure if that's a better answer.

[yannis]

Depends how you like your jeans to fit. In.the first picture looks like you can go to 33 and get them to look like that with wear. Usually the common advice that you will get is to start on the slightly snug side and stretch them with wear.
