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

Exactly the point, but you need to be aware what you’re walking in to. Thinking that a pair will remain pristine to realize that they have their own characteristics which some would say are flaws or benefits needs to be understood beforehand. How many people buy lefties to only realize that they hate leg twist…
There is a learning curve to this journey and the ducks are just one road

Let's fade ours together!
Hell to the yeah! I’m going to commit to not carrying my phone in my pocket for these and start carrying my Y’2 fanny pack more often. It’s a bad but convenient habit that I’m hoping the LBs will break…
Even with the rerelease of the double indigo duck, these are not on the table and are special in that regard (to say the least).
100% Giles told me that it would be impossible to find a pair, and scoring a like-new pair over a decade after release felt like harpooning Moby Dick!

@Oaktavia yes it is and I learned it early in my IH “journey”.

Spoiler alert, no one ever gave a shit except me.
These are absolutely beautiful, all of the darning reminds me of a finely aged Filson briefcase. Really tells a story of your life and I am here for it! Hopefully mine look like this in another decade

@jordanscollected repairs and the fades look so sick! Can't wait for DD re-release. Agree with the sentiments about the embracing of imperfection. The whole point of this heritage world to me is that the clothing looks more interesting and characterful with age. Seeing some of the repairs on this forum is inspiring to take that aging journey further than the average person would too! Is the cuff abrasion something that happens with the 25oz denim?

@phoenixinflight cuff abrasion happens with all denim over time.

Yes, it’s currently happening with my XHSib. The rigidity of the fabric paired with the dirt that gets trapped within your cuffs over time exacerbates the problem.

@SourPower that looks absolutely great on you, congrats on the fit. I'm wearing my 816 in DD to make up for the loss today. waist 36, and they fit me much better than these in 38.
I vote going with no cuff, just to see where stacking will end up in regard to final length.
