      The SBG denim is not as soft as the 21 indigo denim. it takes some days of wear to soften up, but feels comfy after that. SB is a different beast, very stiff and heavy.

      I can't make the 666SB thighs work neither. The 555 are perfect in the top block and if you wear them only occasionally or in the office they will last you long enough.

        Just measured a pair of some slim fitting jeans (Levi's 511) I own using the "how we measure" techniques.

        These are a bit stretched out at this point but they measure:

        W  34
        FR 10
        RR 13
        TH 12.5
        K  8
        H  7

        These are pretty tight on my calves and I'm looking for a slightly more straight cut.  So I was thinking I could go with a 34 in the 555-03?

        Can someone tell me some stretched out measurements on a 34?

        Thanks!

          I wear my 34 at the moment.  From my memory / gut the waist is wider, approx 35-36", the rise higher and the thigh pretty much the same as your measurements. From the knee down they feel tight on me. If that's not what you're after, try another cut.

              Hi everyone,

              first posting in this forum after hanging around for quite a while. Sunny weather in Hamburg - nice light to take a few pics and let you guys know how the black beast is doing over here  🙂

              One soak and a week of constant wear so far. Shrinkage was moderate, I was a bit concerned about the inseams (I'm 6,4"). The denim has started to soften up and it's getting more and more comfy. I'm very happy with my first IH product, definitely more to follow  😘

              I like the slim fit a lot though I'm still hoping for a tad of additional stretch in the legs. I knew it was going to be tight but I was afraid to size up (I chose a 32) because the top block would have been to loose. I think this was the right decision.

              What do you think? Any comments highly appreciated!

                  Cheers from Hamburg! The fit Looks good to me, but a tad tight in the thighs and knee area.

                      After they are worn for a bit they will loosen up perfectly

                          nice pick-up & fit.  think this denim is soooo nice if you are into black denim.

                            The pics didn't even come close to the deep black the jeans shows in reality. To me black is still the most versatile color when it comes to occasions and combinations. Anything goes  🙂

                              What are the measurements after a few wears?

                                Right now the measurements are:
                                Waist:      33.8
                                Thigh      12.1
                                Knee        7.9
                                Hem          7.3
                                Inseam    36.1

                                Since taking the pics the legs stretched a bit more and I guess it hasn't finished yet…

                                Will shoot a fit update in a while.

                                  Thanks, based on that I think 32 is right for me.
