Doubt you’ll catch me standing at a urinal wearing these anytime soon. Private stalls for me….

@Kasi said in IH-777-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered Jeans - Indigo/Black:
25oz + pliers = buttons open up
It really works, though. Shove a pair of needle nose through there, and move 'em around real good.
-
Working on it! Great tip, thanks gents
-
I only had problems with my first pair of 555XHS and then always lucky, maybe a little effort when I wear them wet after soaking, I usually use a pen to widen them a little, I only used the pliers on two pairs of 33oz from another brand, thank goodness for that, I have severe tendinitis on both thumbs and hard buttons sure don't help
-
I must say I’ve never had any problems with neither my 777-XHS nor my 777-XHSib. But maybe I was just lucky with the buttonholes. After all the jeans are handmade so no hole is created equal I guess. I still have major issues with one buttonhole in my trucker 526PJ that I still struggle to button up even after two years.
-
Same for me... My XHSib buttons never gave me headache
-
Sitting in a bathtub wearing these things for my initial soak, about to head out for a walk in the sun. It’s wild - the trapped air bubbles can only escape through the button fly or cuffs, the weave is that heavy and tight. Fucking champ & mint
-
Maybe that’s normal for denim, but I can’t recall ever being in this position…..

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot champ!

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot honestly it's the part I like least of the whole process, every time to remove them I have to call my mother and my partner
, last week I soaked 4 pairs of XHS and risked having my right foot amputated -
@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot bubblin champ haha

@Luijim78 the legend grows with every story I hear about your mum

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot sooner or later they will report me for elder abuse
... I must say that she has much more strength than me, I could make a fortune if I decided to make a video and published it on YouTube -
One thing has become clear to me doing the Indigo Invitational in some SBGs:
Life without XHS is a sad existence.Will be alternating this pair with the SBGs (which I also love) for the time being.
Decided to go for a bit of a stealthy look with these. Tonal stitching for the hem, and removed arcuates. Sacrilege you say? Nah, just toning down the contrast a bit, (wishing these had the dark back pocket stitching of the 888-XHSib).
