IH-777S-18 - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim Slim Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
@RoxRocks86 I’m with you about the 18 oz. Vintage denim. Breathable and easy wearing year round for my climate here in the Midwest. I’ve “outgrown” my first pair so looking forward to a restock and getting started with a new cut and size
-
Ended up giving these a bleach soak over the weekend after crawling around some nasty spaces at work. Poured about half a cup of bleach into a 5 gallon bucket for 10min., threw it in the washing machine and dryer, then laid it out in the sun for about a day.
-
@RoxRocks86 oh dude heeeeck yeah! These jeans turned out perfect...really sets them over the edge with that bleach solution you soaked them in. It's cool you waited until they were already super duper faded to do this. I love how they turned out.
-
@RoxRocks86 Looks great!
(At some point I'll need to try out some bleaching myself)
-
Thanks @Oaktavia @JunkPants Wasn’t too concerned by how light they got with the bleach soak, but wanted to record it and be transparent as it wasn’t by natural wear and wash. They are truly a work pair, so just trying to feel clean in them at this point. I’m hella ocd at home so work is always a big challenge when walking into a unit and shit looks like a haunted house
if Fear Factor ever had an episode on filming the housing we get contracted, it would be a horror/comedy. Probably the biggest reason why I like everything super clean and sterile at home. -

@WhiskeySandwich awesome. That 18oz. Vintage fades so nice and your honeycombs are always next level. What’s the wear/wash on these?
-
@SKT thanks man. Still only 119 wears and 3 washes. The 777 doesn’t get much wear anymore since they’re a bit restrictive
-
Update on the 18 ouncers - freshly machine washed and dried weekly, they’re still going strong minus the crotch & knee areas wearing thin. Not looking forward to sending them in for repairs when the time comes.
-
@RoxRocks86 love these Rox! Well done. I’m without any 18 ouncers and can’t wait to get another pair.
-
@RoxRocks86 Wow they look fantastic.
