PIH5DCT - 25oz Indigo/Indigo Selvedge Denim Tapered Cut

@Oaktavia
@sabergirl mine are tight too!
I haven’t worn them in what feels like years -
@Jett129 they are pretty destroyed. Rain repaired them in 2019. Still plenty of life left in them. Yea let’s see your pair

@sabergirl As far as I'm concerned,when it comes to denim,that 25OZ Indigo/Indigo denim is the G.O.A.T. Wonder if @Giles still has the original fabric sample that he got for that denim. I think ,initially, IHUK only got about 50 pairs of them,and later on some more showed up as maybe they hadn't sold out at Pronto. Feels like a lifetime ago.
-
I do not have the original sample. and yes that is correct, we initially took very few (just the balance of the minimum run to help Pronto out) and also yes we took some back from Pronto too, because for some unknown reason, they were not all that popular in Thailand.....
The OG 25oz sells like crack but the II, just did not work...
-
@Jett129 they look awesome!!
-
Question: is this cut closer to a 777 than any other cut?

@Jett129. Thanks!. I am not familiar with the 501's.There is a sample tag 40 on this thread and looking at the measurements the closest I can come to is the 777. I am obviously trying to see that IH cut that are they based on.
They are not based on any of our cuts, Pronto came up with their own cut, but yes, probably closest to the 777.

@yannis I’ve always felt that the Pronto cut was the closest IH comes to Levi’s 501s. Others might differ with me on this one.
I'll differ, because there's lots of different 501's. You have to define which, or it means nothing.
-
Thank you @Giles
-
Pronto does different cuts. I have the tapered cut in the 10th anniversary and it’s very much like a 777 I know that denim came in a straight cut as well. I’m not sure if this one came in both but the straight version is probably more like a 501 like @Jett129 said. The 15th anniversary was an 888.
-
@Matt yes is came in a straigh cut also and it appears closer to a 666. Kinda like a slim straight.

I had actually thought about that when I,originally,made the post. I have zero knowledge of how current 501s are cut,so I’d be basing my response on the 70s to the early 2000s when I last wore them. My response is also based on my perception of Pronto’s rise,thighs,and leg opening compared to how I think my 501s used to fit. Take that with a very big grain of salt.
