IH-666-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo/Black

[pechelman]

Have worn these infrequently in rotation but decided to give them a solid two months of wear (total of ~4mo wear) and then gave them their first wash this week after the initial scalding hot soak and agitation. They definitely needed a clean, the hot soak before the wash looked pretty gross and they breathe noticably better now. I'm terrible at taking pictures of denim, but here they are post wash.

Wax on, wax off.
Noticing this is much more provided after the wash.

Hopefully that video works?
And yes, I'm a little stir crazy. Dreadful weather right now outside.

@JunkPants Yes they are raw/unwashed.

[JunkPants]

@twin Impressive. Do you think you'll ever wash these, or do you prefer to keep them raw forever?
It would be a grand reveal if you ever did.

[JunkPants]

Just came back from picking these up. Gotta say this fabric is stunning in the flesh

Currently doing the Indigo Invitational with some SBGs, but very much looking forward to breaking these in at some point in the future.

@JunkPants Wear often you sure to get some nice fades. BTW still mot sure if I will wash or not wash.

[JunkPants]

@twin Thank you, I shall wear them a lot when the time comes

We'll keep our eyes peeled, wash or no wash!

[deadendpro]

just ordered a pair of these in 33.. can't wait to get started on these bad boys!

[deadendpro]

These buttons are no joke! My thumbs are recovering from battle currently. Also thought you all might want to see the result of a few days wear followed by an extended hot soak.

@deadendpro nice chart! I made one for my denim tracking too. Here is a blank copy if you're interested.

Here is mine, I'm proud of it which I know is kind of silly but I enjoy adding numbers each day.

[deadendpro]

Very nice! I’ve kept wear trackers since like 2008 and my first pair of Sams. Only recently started a digital tracker and not tally marks on a sheet of paper lol. Yours is quite comprehensive and you are tracking a lot!

[Oaktavia]

@deadendpro that's rad! And thanks for checking it out.

[bluemantra]

How often are these restocked? Annually?

[Alex]

We don't have fixed rerun dates, we put things into production when we can, but i wouldnt expect another re run of these for at least 8 months

[bluemantra]

Not sure if a size down would fit better, but they’re out of tag 31. These are a tag 32.

[JunkPants]

@bluemantra Fit looks excellent if you ask me!

@bluemantra they look good if you ask me mate! Let the fade game begin

[bluemantra]

Thank you. I just wish the waist was .5-1” smaller. The thighs and hips are snug. Just worried with wear they’ll keep falling down. So far the hips are tight enough to keep them up.

[A Former User]

@bluemantra you can always shrink the waist only. If the rest is good! Or wear a belt

[JunkPants]

@bluemantra I see. Sure looks like a great fit otherwise Dig the look of the 666 cut.
Personally I find the thigh measurement to be the crucial one. If the waist is a little loose or a little snug it always seems to work itself out after a bit. If the thighs are too tight you are screwed I always use a belt belt though.
