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

@aetherist. Most Iron Heart fabrics are sanforized and then washed in an industrial machine so almost all shrinkage has been removed. The XHS is sandorized but NOT washed so there is a small amount of shrinkage remaining and this is why we recommend to be soaked.

Really looking forward to these pants coming back instock!🫶

Ah! It makes sense then. I wondered why this one is sanforized but still have some room to shrink. Because most of my denim that is sanforized were still shrinking but to the point that people don’t need to highlight them. Thanks!

@aetherist @Tago-Mago or @goosehd will happily move your post in the correct thread.
fit looks good to me, how much room do you have in the waist? will shrink with the first wash, but will subsequently stretch out with wear, at least to where you are now. so if it feels too loose in the waist now, you might be able to size down. otherwise, keep it.

Thank you! For waist I still have around 0.5 - 1” left actually. I think it will be fine for the first soak then.

Another two months has passed since I asked last time haha! Sorry for the constant excitement, just too eager to know about these pants.

Still September-ish..?

Curious if there is any chance it will be available before Y5 indigo invitational starts?

September is what is listed on the PG schedule. I am sorry but we do not have more than that at this time. As soon as they are here and release date planned we will announce, we so hope we can tie that in with the II

Yeah, Stevie. Lucky enough to get myself a pair in Bangkok. They didn’t have it anywhere else, even the brand considered it as sold out on all over its distributor.

Have myself a couple of their article. Their fabric surely is having a massive potential for fading. But to be honest, nothing beats IH at this point.

@aetherist thats awesome man

I don’t know if this is the right place to post this or not, but I wanna take this time to share my happiness with you guys. I decided to make my own wallet with the leftover hemmed material of 666 xhsib and I really happy with the results. I asked my friend to teach me to sew leather, made the pattern, etc. it took me 2 months to complete this wallet and I’m so happy now. And now I’m thinking to make a watch strap using leather + xhsib material and a small pouch if it’s possible (and still have some leftover of it).

[Luijim78]

@aetherist beautiful, congratulations my friend, an extraordinary job

[matt_rost]

@aetherist Very cool that you've realized this project! It would be fascinating to see how these different materials fade and interact over time with regular use. If you'd like, feel free to show the wallet's interior as well.

[Oaktavia]

@aetherist that's sick!!!
