Thank you @goosehd I did not know about the 14oz ib! It's beautiful!

Can anyone recommend mid-length (slightly above knee level) bathing shorts for men* that are: good quality, fast drying, can be worn casually outdoors (basic colors, no flashy designs/logos etc.), preferably come with zipped pockets, isn't unnecessarily expensive?

*Available in the EU.

Anyone get uneven fading on creases on a shirt? My 293 right arm is a lot more faded then my left arm on all the creases. Any tips for kind of evening it out?

@wjw yeah man all of my faded shirts and jackets are faded differently on each arm. It is totally normal. If they matched up perfectly or nearly identical, wouldn't that be kind of strange? One arm always seems to fade quicker than the other, especially after they really start to pop like the ones in your photos. After about double that amount of wear (perhaps less), it wont be nearly as noticeable and will be well faded throughout.

Could be due to using one arm differently than the other, which seems likely.

@Oaktavia cool. This is the first shirt I've really faded, didn't know if it was par for the course or not. Never noticed it in people's post. Excited to see how this will look after it's eventual first wash.

[Oaktavia]

@wjw heck yeah dude. Is that a 293? It looks fantastic!

[wjw]

@Oaktavia yeah 293

Is it possible to get slimmer than the 777s?

Without using stretch denim? I feel like at some point your foot wouldn't fit through.

@petersmith I have a couple pair of 555 tapered to around 7.5" from more than 8.5. no issues for me. Even can do engineers with only slight adjustments. Jere are my tapered 21oz 555s

I recently picked up a pair of Kaptain Sunshine's shoecut denim. Loved the fabric, but couldn't get on with the fit so thought I'd ask if IH has ever done a slubby/neppy, hairy denim?

[Giles]

We have done slubby. Not neppy (yet).....

[Kingmob31]

Yeah, sorry @Giles, shouldn't have conflated the two. Neppy would be interesting.

@louisbosco I use Waze all the time in mine. Not on the car, just on my iPhone. If you have that connected to Bluetooth, you get guidance through your car’s speakers. The charge pad you rest your phone on is in an okay spot if you need to glance down once in a while.

[petersmith]

@CosmoSix5 There look great. What size are they? My size 34s look a lot baggier. Did they shrink at all after washing?

[louisbosco]

@Chibs cheers mate. Really helpful, I’ll bear in mind to bring my MagSafe phone holder just in case

@petersmith mine are a 38 tag size. I wasn't happy until they were brought in knee to hem. Unfortunately this specific pickiness may keep me from ever having a XHS pair. The 21oz garners "this fabric is quite heavy" from Marina my local tailor. I don't think she'd touch 25oz. And that's a lot of money to have jeans that aren't exactly(close to) what I want. Very jelly of the 33" tag size people those measurements are amazing. Can't suck it in that much
