@Tago-Mago, thank you for all the information. I really appreciate all the resources mentioned. I've got some research and measuring to do.

Super excited about getting these today! Next to my 2 month old IH-666s indigos.

Damn, I just ordered one to test the 666 fit, and sweet lord Jesus, the OD is striking in person; the fit is perfect for me, slightly tight at present, though I expect it will adapt to my shape with wear.

Update!

Purchased: October 15, 2024 – Burg & Schild, Berlin
Wear days: 574 (as of October 16, 2026)
Washes: 4 (May 2025, December 2025, April 2026, September 2026)

These have been my daily drivers for two years. For the first seven months, I wore them EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. without exception. First wash after seven months. The only real breaks have been during the summer months, when 21oz denim becomes a form of self-inflicted torture.

I live in Copenhagen with two young kids and cycle pretty much everywhere: work, school, daycare, playgrounds, grocery runs and trips to the woods. Around 2–3 hours in the saddle every week. My leather bicycle saddle deserves most of the credit (or blame) for the brutal seat fades.

All sashiko repairs and patches are done by hand, by yours truly. When I bought these jeans, I was just getting into sashiko. They've since become my personal training ground, and I've genuinely looked forward to every new hole as an excuse to get the needle and thread out.

Four washes, plenty of spot cleaning and fresh air, 574 days of wear, and countless stitches later. Still going strong.

@Asger-Ebdrup awesome pair man!! Your pics on Reddit from a while ago made me get a pair of overdyed 888s that I am wearing for a month now and they are amazing.

@Asger-Ebdrup outstanding wear and repairs! Love them

[Asger Ebdrup]

That’s awesome @FlavourFade! Hope you like them!? I just love the overdyed fabrics. I just started breaking in a pair of 634s 21 oz OD myself!

Thank you @AdamJ

@Asger-Ebdrup I had a pair of 777od a while back but sold them because of the low rise. My 888 now are perfect. So soft and heavy, love them
