That's great mate, nice one. I think I'll go into R&H when the time comes. I'm fortunate enough to be pretty local to one here in the UK. Did they charge for the Hem btw?

@Supersonic Great idea! The hemming was included in the price with jeans purchased at R&H!

Anyone who's had this pair a while and worn them in. How much stretch if any did you get in the Thigh region?

I've been stung with 'these things stretch a ton' with RGT which I've always had to sell on eventually. Not had an IH pair next. But think I'll be getting this pair in the next month or two once I've shed some excess weight.

Would appreciate any input, I expect the usual waist stretch which can be minimised thru the use of belt (which I always use anyways).

Does anyone know if there is there much difference in breathability between these and the SBGs?

@goldstone0 I have both and the SBG’s definitely feel more breathable. I believe the over dyeing process tightens the weave and essentially makes the garment much less breathable, maybe one of the crew could confirm though? @Graham

@DeeDee85 Thanks. I knew it tightened the weave and was less breathable than indigo but wasn't sure how tight the weave of SBG was.

@goldstone0 no problem, to be honest I only really wear my 21oz October through to March and I’ve never really over heated in the SBG.. there’s been a couple of times with the 21od where it has felt like they were absorbing the sunlight though so def go with the SBG if you are after breathability
