IH-888S-21 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo

[cyclops]

Mine arrived today. With the latest batch i think the thighs are slightly slimmer but it looks amazing. I probably just thought these were going to be the same as my other 888s but now just in 21oz, but honestly these have somehow exceeded my expectations completely. They are so so good and just perfect. Bravo!

@cyclops as every run may have slight variations, that is why we say “always trust measurements, always”. No two runs will be exactly identical.

I’m glad that in this instance it worked out in your favour.

@goosehd yeah for sure! But i cant work out what it is thats changed, the cut just looks awesome. Its still new to me so whether its the 21oz denim or the slight tweaks, everything looks great to me. Super happy.

Got mine ~10 days ago and I know this isn’t much of a surprise but they really do just get more and more comfortable. Aside from the odd occasion, I can’t see how I’ll wear anything else until it’s time for shorts again!

@craig001 21oz is honestly my go to, they're genuinely like sweatpants for the level of comfort they provide

I have a question but not sure where to put it so I’ll ask here because I just bought the 888 21oz. This isn’t a complaint just a question about something I noticed. I got the jeans hemmed at iron heart. I noticed the scrap pieces have that nice roping effect already happening but the new hem line is very smooth. Will I still get the roping effect eventually? After washing maybe?

[goosehd]

@jmceachern Yes. Roping will happen with time and wear.

Well I decided that I could not wait till the indigo invitational and honestly I do not think I can wear a single pair for a year although I have been enjoying my samurai 25oz 510s.

I wore my 888s today for the first time and am loving this fit. I think the top block is perfect and the thigh is almost perfect but a hair slim. I can still kneel and lift my leg up to just past 90 degrees. I feel just a hair bit of restriction but feel this should stretch a little with wear. These feel like a slim fit Jean compared to the samurai 510s and even comparing to the 1955 which I am loving as well. Thoughts on the fit? I think this is as close as I have gotten to perfect for me.

@Ral1121 look like a great fit
