IH-888D - 17oz Duck Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Brown
-
These are my favorite pants I've ever owned. Not 100% sure why they hit so hard, but they really do. I love the duck, it's just the right thickness and color and everything.
Unfortunately I'm a dumb ass and they got a bit dirty really shortly after a wash, and instead of sticking them back in the wash I had the brilliant idea of trying to spot clean by using a tide pen to get it out. It got out the dirty bit---but also a bunch of the color in the spot. Woops. Now I have just a weird white spot on my thigh. It's one of those small things that is going to bother me like crazy even though literally no one else will ever notice it, but I'm going to be sad about this for quite a while.

@schraiber I did something very similar with my 888S-UHR’s. I was holding my friends baby and she squeezed a strawberry while sitting on my lap. The juice from the strawberry left a crazy stain on my thigh and my stupid self scrubbed it away with a freaking rough shoe brush and soap. That stain was pretty noticeable for some time unfortunately but I’d say now it’s basically went away.
To make matters worst the stain happened 3 weeks into me owning the denim and it didn’t really blend in (not even blend in, just didn’t look as bad,) until the first wash at 7 months.
First pic is when it first happened, 2nd pic is post- first wash at 7 months.

@worn2fade not gonna lie, this makes me feel a lot better... Both a bit less stupid knowing other people have made similar mistakes and it gives me some hope that in a few months it won't even be noticable

@schraiber I did the same thing with my 12oz denim western shirt. Guacamole on the pocket right under the Iron Heart logo tab. Furiously scrubbed it and left a white mark. Took a good few years of wear before it blended in with the rest. Not sure anyone ever noticed or cared. I just told myself it adds character

@AdamJ gotta embrace the wabisabi

Any timing updates on a restock for these in a size 32? I saw they weren’t included in the last run and wasn’t sure if they were delayed for some reason.

@Link-Of-Time It's great that youre keen to get your hands on the x IH-888D. These will be coming back but unfortunately we do not have a date right now.
I would for sure keep an eye on this thread! If you need a hand signing up for a restock notification then please let me know, I will gladly help.

@Freeman sweet, thanks for the update!
-
Yeah count me in waiting for these to drop again. Had to check the remaining sizes for the duck cargos, but unfortunately wasn't available in my size anymore.
After acquiring the untucked and 20oz duck chore, I am now convinced I need a pair of duck trousers. -
Love these. With the warmer weather arriving, they’ve been getting a lot more wear. My 22oz Indigo Invitational pair is usually my go-to right now, but there comes a point where even I have to admit it’s too hot for 22oz

They look great. Will try and grab some next time they drop for sure.
Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals... except the weasel.

@Indigo-Alchemist I do the same, wear my XHSib all the time, but when it's too hot I rotate into the ducks, great all year round pair

@1WayTrip they are really super comfortable and worth the wait my friend!
-
@FlavourFade feels like wearing nothing when you switch into them from ultra heavy denim and the cut does the rest
-
Can't wait for these.
Then let’s wait for the next one I guess…
