@Denimhead-0 Guess you liked the 14ib a lot so you went for the 25ib as well. Can't blame you amazing fit on both.
IB is my fav, already have 88821, 777 xhs and 555xhs IB.

As always, I did not bother to measure

@Tago-Mago forgot to measure as well

I feel like they lost half inch on length which is good since they were Unhemmed.

After wearing a couple times, did the first soak in mildly warm water. Inside out and no agitation. Did the towel roll dry to get excess water out and hung dry. Didn’t expect to see fade lines after that first soak. Guess I have a lot to learn.

@Workwear I had some white lines too, did a light wipe with an old wet towel, very lightly.

Thanks for the advice, I'll give it a try

@Denimhead-0 out of curiosity how tall are you? Super clean look considering you’ve only single cuffed them and they are unhemmed!

Dang! I picked up my XHSib 666 today! What a beastly pair of denim!
I feel bullet proof and excited as I can be! Such a cool pair of jeans!

After two years of waiting, now the fading journey begins
