Tough enough to cycle in

[Inorganic]

@JimB howdy. I commute ~60mins/day for 0-3days a week. I ride in my IH-777D's and I pack a different pair of denim should I want to change.

The ducks are tough as shit and I haven't blown out the crotch after years of cycling.

@Giles are there any more duck fabric pants? <--disregard I searched and found my answer, but another question arose - are there plans for any other colour ways for the 777Ds? I saw there are black and ivory duck colour ways

@Alex will know....But, I suspect not. Duck to Haraki's specs has proved to be very difficult to source/make.

Hi guys!
I've been cycling to work for over 10 years now. Around 25km. Round trip. 5000/6000km per year. I've tried a number of different cuts and fabrics. Winter and summer. The 633 21oz is definitely at the top of my list. Good thigh room. Short hems. Non-thight woven. A pair of cycling jeans! Definitely. Seriously delays the appearance of damage to the croth area. A pair of cycling jeans!

not currently, but we are looking into other duck to run in general terms, so perhaps, however the 777 is one of the least popular cuts so if the fabric is limited, then it may not make it to 777

@Alex thanks, I look forward to more duck options....mind boggling to me that 777 is one of the least popular cuts?!

@Inorganic it’s a tight pack

@Alex said in IH-1955S-142 - 14oz Selvedge Denim "1955" Vintage Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo:

The problem is that all our cuts are pretty popular. If we look at total sales of jeans from 2019-2024, the most popular cut in that period accounted for 21.8% of jeans sales. The least popular cut (not inc boot cuts) accounted for 19% of total jeans sales, so it's not like we can safely say "trend is moving to wider pants, lets kill the slim jeans" which is oft suggested helpfully by people on social media.

@Alex thanks for sharing that data..sounds like your quiver of cuts is well balanced....a good problem to have?

[JimB]

Ducks are looking promising… I think I’m going to need a 32w though. @Alex are any restocks expected any time soon?

[Alex]

@JimB Yep, all cuts due soon

In the wintertime I use the 777-25oz for a indoor cycling system, three times a week for about 45 min with a Brooks saddle . I would lie to say that it is the perfect riding jeans and especially at the beginning it was not really a joy, but now it works good and the crotch area is still looking not so bad
