IH-666D - 17oz Duck Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Brown
-
I’ve worn through the pocket taping. Bummer.
I've done that with every pair of IH I've ever had, and it doesn't really take that long- it was the first wear to show on my ducks. A few of my older pairs- my 634s and 634V- don't have taped pockets at all, and I've managed to completely destroy the pockets. Maybe I have sandpaper knuckles.

Back to the top of my wanted list with the restock.

Monster Restock…..
Including tag 35 for the first time…...
Yeah that's nice! The measurements are damn near perfect for me on a 35 too.
-
I just picked up a pair myself since they included a size 35 on this last run. Fit is perfect.
-
So nice… I guess I need a pair...

@meckintosh Resistance is futile! Go for it!

I've been helping my mate build an outdoor obstacle course, so thought these would be perfect for such a task.

@bryaneidins70 They are getting quite a workout. Rock them hard.

Have never tried a pair of these…. that picture will help...... i'm just afraid they won't last that long

Evenin',
Apologies, I am sure the answer is somewhere back over these 81 pages, and I have had a good read… but cant find what I need!I currently have some 555-01 which are a great fit tag 32, but a really 34, now stretched out a touch. I am thinking the 666D would probably work in 34 (real size 33.5), or should I go 35 (real size 34.2).. how much do these stretch with wear? To be honest I intend to wear with a tucked shirt for work, so may be the larger is best?
Also, I will need to hem, I dont think these will look they way I would want double cuffed.... is there much shrink in the inseam with washing?
Best regards,

My 666D arrived today, quick turnaround and great hemming from Sam.
The IH crew found a slightly larger cut 34 tag so the waist is closer to 34 than 33.5. The fit is great, a more generous cut than my 555-01 and more suited to the comfortable office wear they are destined for.
I had the leg hemmed to 33, I was cautious as material cannot be put back! I think I could probably have gone to 32 but will see if honeycomb'ing etc draws up any of the length, along with the first wash…. fit shots to follow!

Pleased for you! They are lovely jeans. I also like that «everyone» buys these as smart casual/office wear. They do function well in that respect for a little while… I was also careful with my hemming. Ended up having them taken up again by my local seamstress.
Looking forward to fit pics!

Just uploaded a short review of my freshly delivered IH666D, if you dont want to listen to me yappin' about trousers skip to 8:08 to see them on.
Just finished the second day at the office with these, very comfortable, substantial but not as heavy as i had imagined, nor as hot. I think I could do with a slightly slimmer cut for my skinny legs, but the 666 do make for comfortable all day wear.
I may try an early "hot" wash to see if I can bring about a little shrink, I think I could lose an inch of the inseam as I was cautious. If not I will have to run the gauntlet with a local tailor and see if they are upto the challenge of hemming these.
It will be interesting to see how long these remain smart enough for the office.
