IH-666-LB - Devil's Fit Loom Breakers….

[Daniel San]

@tody
great catch mate 🥳
seen them too, but a little too big for me .

[tody]

while this is a grail item, it might be a catch and release for me. too wide, or how much shrinkage can i expect with a seriously hot soak?

[jordanscollected]

@tody not much shrink to be had. They always seems to stretch back out to pre wash measurements. Great find though!

[goosehd]

@tody no shrinkage. Sorry.

This jeans is a good companion for colder days. They were a bit „strange“ at first in comparison to „normal“ IH but now they feel very good.

[tody]

@Marc2706 looking good!
i really wish mine were one size smaller so they'd fit properly.

[Marc2706]

@tody thanks a lot! I know what you mean, the wrong size is really bad. And it is not so easy to find a pair..

But the loom could not take the strain and this happened……

@Giles this link is a 404, curious if you still have the broken loom photo and could re-post it?

@goosehd thank you!

@SourPower it is impressive…

@SourPower you’re going to need to get those photos framed for your wall!

I see @tody is enabling again

[tody]

@Tago-Mago the downside of my weight loss. i could pull them down without unbuttoning them. if i gain 10 kilos again, everyone has the right to shame me publicly in this thread right here…

I can tell you”re young by your use of “if” instead of “when.”

[tody]

i‘d like to keep that in the 'been there, done that' dimension. typing this message from the seat of my rowing machine… i look shitty with close to 100kilos

[Matt]

Yeah that’s a real Sophie’s Choice.

[SourPower]

First wear in the LBs today!
Thank you again for passing these along to me @tody, they are my best fitting pair of IH pants.

The 666 is my favorite cut, and these are absolutely perfect in the waist. My understanding is that this fabric doesn’t stretch or shrink much, so I am elated with the fit. Probably going to keep these on ice for the summer and plan to rage them this fall/winter.

Really amazing fabric, loving this deep indigo color. Debating whether or not to put a small cuff on these to show off this incredible selvedge ID… thoughts?

[goosehd]

@SourPower they don’t like to be cuffed and will make holes at the point you cuff them. If you don’t mind holes and potential failure at some point, then I would say to cuff them. I hemmed them to length which is sacrilegious to some, but I wanted to wear this as long as I possibly could.

If you leave them a bit on the longer side, they will stack beautifully.
