        I wear my pair for only my daily 2 to 3-hour evening walks and grocery shopping trips. Around 15-20 hours per week. My estimate is that the net wear time is around 3-4 months.
        Gave it a tub wash. Tons of indigo dye went off. The color changed drastically. Fades are becoming 3D: whiskers, honeycombs... even the front pocket bags' fades started protruding from the inside.
        The fabric became more dense and thicker. As overall I am happy with the result and going to wash it more frequently, probably once a month.
        P.S. Decided also to have some fun. I don't have a leather conditioner. Just of curiosity I applied a thick 1-mm layer of unsalted butter onto the leather patch in the evening. In the morning the whole layer disappeared, not even oily residues. The leather patch ate it all

          @nurlank I think using butter will make it go rancid and start to stink…

          @seawolf need your expertise here.

                      Hey guys!

                      I'm now a proud owner of an IH-777S-21 and it's simply the best jeans I've ever had in my life. Cut, shape and fabric is amazing and fits perfectly to me.

                      Unfortunately I have an issue: from the first day of wearing I got some lined stains at the edge of the cuff:

                      20250114_143107.jpg

                      As recommended I soaked them before first wearing for 15 min in my bathtub. I'm not a great expert since it's only my third selvedge jeans yet. But never experienced this with my other jeans before.

                      Is this normal for this fabric? Does it disappear with wearing and washing? Or what can I do to prevent this?

                      Thanks for your help!

                            @Domi Nothing to worry about. with some weartime, washings and more fading it won't be that visible anymore. Congrats, perfect choice to start with 21 oz into the world of IH denim!

                              Loving the new sizing on these. Near spot on. Only thing I would wish for in future releases for jeans is a longer leg. 37”. I am 33” inside leg but can only cuff these with a small single cuff and same with my 666 pair.

                                  Just love the 21oz denim - cut wise these 777 now feel quite tight after spending more time in 634.

                                        Question for the vets out there. I have a pair of IH-777S-21 and also a pair of IH-777S-21od both newish and in tag 35. Would a hot soak of the former result in it shrinking to roughly the same size as the latter? I would like this to be true but don't want to overshoot the mark.
                                        Thanks!

                                          @Evertonman Sorry, but it will not. The 21oz has been sanforized and one washed with little to no shrinkage. Any shrinkage you may get will be temporary.

                                            @Evertonman I am not a vet, still raw & unwashed ))) So, it's going to be a rookie advice ))
                                            I would assume that probably yes, a hot soak can potentially get it shrunk a bit. Not crazy like a couple of inches, but considerably.
                                            Last time after I gave them a tub wash in a "very warm" water (not hot), they sat on me quite tighter, on butt and thighs.
                                            Yes, they stretched out then a bit, but still quite tighter than used to do even after multiple wears. Though I am a skinny guy, so works for me.
                                            You can try to give them a hot soak for an hour and see how far shrinkage can go
