BS69xSOP420 - 21oz 777 SBG Berkeley Supply x Snake Oil Provisions Collab

I'm two years in and they're the best fitting IH jeans I have. I'm usually a size 33 in Iron Heart, but since 33s were sold out, I took a chance on a 34. Best decision ever—these 34s lock in like machinery to my body, fitting perfectly compared to my regular 777s, which feel a bit baggy. Black denim just feels better and more punk the more snug (not tight) they fit, IMHO.
That said, I still like the slightly baggy look of my 777s for a different style.

Are these the same denim material as the IH-8301S-SBG? Just curious if they’ll fade the same. Thanks

@rovdjurstorget agreed. Managed to snag a pair of 33’s half price brand new on eBay (am always a 32 in 777 but 33 in duck) and they fit like a dream. Great winter rotation along with my 21oz indigo’s

@AdamJ thx Adam. So I’m reading that these will not shrink because of the dying process? At least from the description on the site. Also I’m reading the self edge models do shrink? So I’m slightly confused if they’ll shrink if it’s the same fabric. Thanks.

All the SBG is sanforised, this removes most shrinkage. Denim is not washed, products are - all the international models of this denim are one washed, to remove any further shrinkage. The origional 8301S was specced so long ago, I do not know what they originally asked for, its possible they asked for the jeans not to be washed, and therefore they would still shrink a little.
The denim, regardless, is identical

I've been wearing mine for a few days. They behaved just like any other 21oz from IH...easy break-in, usual bit of stretch. Love how it's all blacked out and the patch is really cool!
-
@PJ I just ordered a pair of these today… I am in the same predicament as you were. I was ready to have them hemmed but after the email and the fact that these are my 1st pair of 777’s I was nudged to get them unhemmed. Hey, how are the fades coming?
-
@Bigred08hd hey. They are currently on ice because I’m wearing a different pair for the Indigo Invitational. But as a follow up I decided to get them hemmed at a local store later on. In general I got tired of cuffs. Now they are perfect and fading to grey is visible. I’m sure you will love them. Fade on

Good luck in the Indigo Invitational
