        Thank you for the great advice!

        I worked with the team and came up with what could be the best plan given the approximate nature of the shrinking that can happen after a wash.

        The jeans arrived yesterday. 25oz is no joke, I think a description I read of “wearing armor” is a great analogy to what they feel like.

        After a hot soak/wash and a drip dry the jeans landed exactly where Graham approximated they would. I am so happy with the whole process, amazing customer service experience from beginning to end as well as a very high quality product.

        Let the journey begin!

            I was going through airport security with my 25s on today and they said the “scanner couldn’t penetrate the crotch material of my pants” - needless to say I got a frisk up and left a bit disheveled. Just an FYi.

            90 wears. Hoping for 150.

              @indigostiff Very common occurrence and I think some of us have worn them just for the extra attention 🙂

                          @indigostiff That happened to me last summer when I wore 21 oz IHs through the airport. Was a bit surprised by that.

                                Hi guys I’m new here and looking to buy my first pair of 25oz 666s. Couple questions: 1. does soaking the jeans prevent indigo transfer? I have some light coloured furniture and I’ll be in some trouble if the indigo streaks onto the furniture. 2. Regarding honeycombing, how much allowance should I give for that when considering hemming? Thanks a lot !

                                  It may a little but it will not nullify it, wear and washes will do, but that doesnt help your furniture in the short term, sorry

                                  1. Regarding honeycombing, how much allowance should I give for that when considering hemming? Thanks a lot !

                                  0.5", plus the shrinkage quoted on the product page

                                    @indigostiff Happened to me leaving Gainesville last month. Got felt up all over my dang 25s by a stout redhead...while making eye contact.
