Ok thanks heaps all! Really appreciate the feedback and support!

Edit: soaked it today! Dried it and everything buttons up! You guys were right, no need to do the getting in the tub thing! Once again thanks everyone for your input

When did IH switch from sewn-in cloth placards/ hanger tags on the pocket to the paper ones we see today on the IH-666-XHS - 25ox? Recently acquired this pair that still has ones sewn in and trying to date them. Thanks for any input.

Considering a used pair of 25oz 666’s.
They have been washed several times and while it’s not what i would ever do, I’m curious what the groups collective experience has been with this denim when washed a bit.

Does it not fade anymore AT ALL??
Essentially, what would i be in for?
Denim looks not broken in. Would it always be that way because it doesn’t that crunchy break in period?

Thanks for all help?

They will continue to fade. They might not continue to stretch depending on the relative size of you vs previous owner but they will continue to break to the way you wear them

6 or so months on these now, and loving them so far. My first go with 25oz. Wore the UHR’s for a year last go, and doing the same with these. They’ve become pretty comfy! Also loving my IH-526J-142ib. It’s become the jacket I grab the most through spring & summer. But doesn’t get a ton of wear in the American South. Just when it’s too damn cold in the office!
