IH-666S-UHR - 21/23oz Ultra Heavy Raw Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans

[wjw]

For those who normally don't fit into a 666 topblock, did the 666 UHR work for you?

I'm more of a 634 fit generally, but the measurements on the last run make me hopeful I can finally get the slim straight. With the 634s about to release, wondering if I should hold out for the 666 in hopes it works out or not. My tightest thigh comes in at 13" on my 777S-21, and prefer a little looser than that. I had a tag 36 666-142 and those limited my full mobility. I generally shoot for a waist of 37-37.5" after stretch

@wjw. We obviously do not know the measurements on the new batch of UHR but innthe previous run you will have to go tag 36 to achieve the desired waist and at that tag size the 777 had a bigger thigh than the 666 which starts at 13.3 inches before shrinking. I would be very carefully if I was you.

[wjw]

@yannis Yeah, I know it's a fine line. I'm generally a tag 36 in other cuts. Is it a correct assessment that shrinkage seems to be around a quarter inch give or take loss in the leg width measurement following provided guidance? Can't tell if it's worth the risk holding out for the sizing of the new batch of 666, or just go 634, where I know fitting won't be an issue, just maybe baggier than my preference

How the top block fit you on the 634. If the top block fits nice the same tag size 666 will be slimmer in the top block. The top block of the 666 its pretty slim.

@wjw if you normally have issues with the 666, then I would seriously suggest sticking with the 634 especially in the UHR. You will have more satisfaction out of sticking with a cut that you know will work for you.

Thanks for the sound reasoning

@dirtyframer

Am in no rush. Just planned my buying schedule.

[dirtyframer]

@Kasi just had the 21/23 555 and 634 arrive with done soaking/washing. Now I need the 666 and 777 .

Have not tried a pair of 888 yet so dont know if I would like them as of yet.

[Kasi]

@dirtyframer

I stay on line between 634 and 666.
Don’t like 555 and 777

888 not a man for tapered jeans

[dirtyframer]

@Kasi my favorite so far are 555 and 666

[Kasi]
