IH-888-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Ind/blk
-
back in my day, work wear was work wear for a reason
-
I’ve been throwing these on since getting them a few days ago. They are definitely rigid! And feel more like a suit of armor the first time on. They are breaking in quite nicely. -
@fuzzybunnies Nice fit! Also first photo shows the color really well especially compared to the black hoodie.
-
@moskiitto agreed it’s such a deep deep lovely color.

Reporting back after having these for about 2 weeks.
I was stressed because they were my first pair of IH jeans. Never had anything this heavy + never had anything with tag size 40 before.
After the initial soak and wash--> perfect fit and they just keep getting better the more I wear them. I absolutely love them more than any other jeans I own.
Measurements were quite close to that of my 38 Freenote Portolas and I can confirm that It was the right thing to do to trust the measurements rather than the tag size alone.
They are a little roomier but not baggy by any means.One hell of pair of jeans!
-
As mentioned previously.. after the hem and soak these ended up a little bit longer than the measurement I had in mind. Factoring in the cuff, these are measuring about .5-.75 inches longer than my 888-142od and 633s. I was bit worried but obviously they’re not a mile off, and maybe .5 inches extra isn’t a bad thing with XHS? Thoughts? Brightness all the way up so the fit is visible.

@americanathreads the fit looks great to me, to be honest. I think the hem length and cuff work well. Once the denim breaks in, it’ll be less rigid and drape quite nicely.
-
@americanathreads I agree with the above as well The length looks great and does not look too long at all imo.
-
@americanathreads leave as is my friend. Looks awesome.
-
@americanathreads fit and length are amazing. I am not a big cuffer anymore but with I/B or double indigo I like to cuff because it looks great to me when the jeans are all faded but the cuff is still very dark

Thanks y’all
looking forward to breaking these puppies in. Appreciate the feedback.
