IH-888-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Ind/blk

They dont have the same thigh measurement. A tag 40 634 has a 15.3 thigh and a tag 40 555 has a 14.8 thigh. Those are flat measurements. Effectively the 634 is an inch wider at the thigh measurement and that is just the start. By the time you get to the knee the 634 is almost 2 inches wider. That is no small difference. You are comparing the slimmest cut to the roomiest cut at the same size. The differences are big. I am not trying to sway you one way or the other. Just to caution you.

@caithangkhanh how long you been rocking those indigo/black 21 and 25 for? As I said in the 21ib thread, fantastic fading here man. So awesome!
-
@Oaktavia thanks man! Trying to build my faded arsenal, one piece at a time. I realized I made a detailed post on IG, but not here.
I pretty much wore each indigo/black for a year straight. I only washed once at the one year mark. When I move on to another piece to fade, I semi-retire the previous one. I’ve worn the 21ib a handful of times since I washed them, but the XHSib has been stored away while I worked on the SBG. But now all three are stored away so I can focus on the 633 Self Edge collab for the II.

@caithangkhanh ah right on I didn't realize that was your Instagram. Awesome stuff dude thanks for sharing.
-
@Oaktavia yea, I’m trying to be more active on posting updates here and on IG. While I was making the post, I couldn’t help but notice that the whiskers and honeycombs are pretty consistent on all three pairs. Then coincidentally, I saw someone else’s post on IG mentioning that fades could be unique fingerprints to us. I thought the at was pretty cool.

@caithangkhanh Fades are very unique to each wearer and some people in the game can figure out whose pair of jeans are just by the fades and whiskers. Giles has mentioned before that people knew they were his jeans without any identifiers saying they were his.
