            My name is Bert and I have been wearing raw jeans nearly for a decade now without exeption . Mostly  the
            Lee 101S dry that fits me very well.  I have taken the plonge into the IH stuff as I understood that IH is more or less “the holy grail”  of denim and since I wanted to make a new experience in raw denim I thought it would be wise to go all the way.  Having said that I wanted of course to try the 21oz IH is so famous for but decided that this would probably be a bit too much at this time of the year so I started of with a 14OZ 777S 142. Upon receipt of the jeans I am impressed by the  workmanship . Definately a step up from my Lee 101.  The fit is a different thing since I find the 777S a little tight on the upper leg.  Waist is fine ( i have bought the 33/36 size) hem width is perfect .  Now I don’t know what to expect in  terms of stretch but from what I read in this forum particularly this 14oz will not “give in” a lot.  I have soaked the jeans in a bath with cold water and a cup of vinegar and let it dry hanging .  This to determin the correct length for hemming .  The hemming was done in Amsterdam by Yourii from Tenu de Nimes with a authentic  Union Royale.  Perfect job.  Now maybe someone has useful comments on my idea of too tight legs and the probale loosening by wearing them a while.
            Anyway happy to have a pair of “the real stuff” . 😉 😉

                  Hello from Okinawa! Name's Sam. I technically live in Hawaii, but I'm out here for a few months for work. Anyone who's from/been to Japan have any suggestions for stuff to do out here? Hoping to find some time to go to the Japanese mainland in a couple weeks and need ideas.

                  All I've got IH-wise so far is a T-shirt and a pair of the 888-XHS', which is less than ideal here in the tropics but I haven't heat-cased yet. Hoping to add to that list soon tho, hopefully with some lighter-weight denim.

                      If you can I highly recommend a pair of IH slubs for warm, humid conditions.

                                      hello from southern CA , Costa Mesa to be exact.

                                      Always like flannels and jeans and wish i found out about IH YEARS ago.

                                      first buy was from the reloved section as i like used clothes and when i opened up and say the UHF i knew it was all over !

                                      trying to snag some used pieces from the market place at the moment

                                      also send me a pm if you are looking to sell any of the 9oz flannels in xxl or xxxl size work or western
                                      or straight 634 or 1955 with 35-36 waist and atleast 32 inseam , longer is ok . also would like to try the 888 cut.

                                      thanx

                                      todd

                                            Haven't been on tapatalk for a few years,(Was pretty active on a Subaru sub a few years ago)  Looking forward to meeting some new denim heads and learning all I can about the Brand along with other aspects of raw/selvedge denim…Not nearly an expert, but I've been wearing & researching everything from APC to Acne jeans for awhile now, trying to narrow down my first pair of IH's very shortly.
