IH-822-IND - Double Knee 21oz Selvedge Denim Engineer's Pants - Indigo

@Mister_Brue that’s a great idea. I look forward to following your progress on these in the II…they should be a unique pair for the competition.
Sometimes I think about entering myself, but I’m always too excited to get my new jeans to wait even an extra second to start wearing them.
-
@Mizmazzle Indeed, but luckily I now have two pairs of 1955’s and a pair of 602’s to keep me going over the summer.
-
@Mister_Brue Nice, already looking forward to seeing the results
-
@Mister_Brue that’s a great strategy. I have a UES Tricotine that’s been iced in my closet for next fall because I got 3 other indigo shirts right at the same time.
-
@Mizmazzle sounds about right haha
-
@Mizmazzle I have a stockpile as well.....
(Dig those Tricotine shirts by the way! I have no doubt I'll break down and get one at some point). -
@JunkPants it’s a sweet shirt for sure! But then Iron Heart has a way of making everything else take a back seat.
-
@Mizmazzle 100% true!
-
@Mizmazzle had the tricotine shirt a while ago. Great shirt and fast fader but like you said, when you have IH stuff, everything else just don't really compares anymore... Maybe with some exceptions
-
@Daniel-San I misspoke about the height of the belt loops. I became curious and measured my 888s and then my 822s. The height is indeed longer on the 822s than other jeans I own.
The height from the top seam to the bottom of the belt loop attachment is 2 inches on the 888s. The 822s is .25 inches longer at 2.25”.
Just a little bit of technical data on the belt loops as discussed several posts up from this one.

@SKT That definitely looks like some ideal horse riding country. Enjoy your time there!

I’m afraid there’s not much evo since the last round but thought I’d put some pre-wash pics up. They’re in the wash now and I’ll post some more after they dry. Really love these, they’ve been my cold weather buddies these past few months
Silver dollar in the coin pocket ^

I just got my 822s hemmed after a year of wearing them cuffed and losing the roping hurt a little bit…
-
@Denman-John oh I bet. I do think cuffing is what brings out the best roping. I don’t cuff my other jeans and they don’t have that beautiful clean roping. More tattered and ragged looking.
-
@Mizmazzle I have a theory that the triple stitching creates more tension but no proof. They really do get awesome roping though so there has to be a reason. More than my other 21 OG
-
Thought I’d throw out a few more pics “post wash” and before I hang them up for the warmer months. They’ve been so fun to wear this past winter…be fun to see where they go next year.
