IH-888S-21ib - 21oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Ind/Blk

[illdatu]

I was a dumb dumb and missed the video presentations. Did anyone catch what color the arcuates will be on these?

For the record, I'm a fan of the black or indigo arcurates, a la IH-888-XHSib.

I don’t remember, but I’d be very surprised if they have anything other than tonal (black or blue), arcs.

Correct….

@Giles:

Correct….

Looks like I was horribly incorrect…  :o

[Giles]

Sorry, I meant incorrect - I cant read this morning

Tonal arcs only happen if IHUK requests them, Haraki doesn't like them…...

Some days are like that… I am surprised, but personally not disappointed. I am a fan of both tonal and contrast.... but on the whole I find myself more drawn towards contrasted arcs. Quite excited about this denim. Not least to see which qualities it shares with the OG 21oz.

[Giles]

Contrast arcs do look a bit much when new, but look cooler and cooler with wear….

Agreed. Although I am also a big fan of «a bit much».

These look awesome!

Got to be that guy… any estimated drop dates?

@Bren

We do not have an accurate ETD on these at this point. Supply chain issues, shipping issues all around…

Got them today. Great hand on this denim. Just ever so slightly coarser than the regural 21oz. They should brake in nicely

Hello

I'm new around here and I might need some advice in order to acquire my first pair of IH!
I've set my mind on those 888 21o in Indigo/Black and I struggle to pick the right size. I don't have a place to try one where I live..
Usually I wore my jeans in size 36, I'm a 36 in Momotaro, Full Count, PBJ and also in my Benzak/Samurai collab.. I have measured these jeans and according to the measurements I can pick a 36 except for the waist I need a 38

So I'm wondering if I pick a pair in 38 are the jeans going to be a lot larger than the 36 on the legs? I don't want it to feel baggy-ish..

I hope I'm making sens

Thank you guys!

(And sorry for my english, I'm really rusty ^^)

@GrizzlyInDenim Welcome to the forum!  You might be able to get the stretch out of the waist with the 21oz denim.  How close are you to the 38 versus the 36?

By the way, your english is very good.

If/when you place an order through IHUK, the customer service crew will reach out to double-check sizing with you before we ship.

[GrizzlyInDenim]

@goosehd : I'm leaning more toward the 38 in the waist I'm afraid the 36 might be too tight and I don't know if the jeans will stretch enough to be comfortable

@Giles : Alright thank you for the information!

@GrizzlyInDenim . Take into account that the 888's seat higher closer to your natural waist vs hip and usually that measurement at list for most people is smaller that the hip. You will also get an inch of stretch after wear. Take all those things in consideration including the advice you will receive from the IH crew. In addition if you still uncertain do not hem the jeans in the event you need to return them for a different size.
