IH-666L - The Devil's Left Hand

Freshly hemmed. Sorry for the bathroom pic but at the hospital good lighting is rare.

Anyone else rocking these? They are starting to get a little fading going on. It has taken a bit, but it's going to pay off!

Yep, around a month of wear for me now and the whiskers are starting to show a bit of fading. I'd wear them more often, but it's goddam winter in Bavaria, so I fall back to my 25oz DC4002.

Classic look N

thank you guys.
and thank you IronHeart for making this pair, it has everything I need to feel good.
It is definitely my cut, feels like the 666s, but (imo) improved with lighter denim having no red selvage id.
my jeans!

thats your problem, best to pick up both..
-
I'm considering these again, I hesitated because the lighter weight but kind of liking the idea of some lighter stuff in the rotation lately

Lighter jeans are awesome. They're a must in a wardrobe IMO. I think these would satiate that need quite nicely mr. TMT

What's likely to happen super long term ;). Need to be a bit more faithful to individual models. Already splitting my time across 2 brides

I bought my first pair of raw denim jeans in the form of some RRLs about a year ago, but wasn't completely satisfied with the fit after some wear (too tight in the thigh and too loose in the waist and seat) so have been lurking on here for a while trying to decide what pair to go for.
By chance I had a few hours to kill between trains in Brighton and visited Peggs & son to try on some Edwins when I saw the 666S and 666L Iron Hearts (I didn't realise there were any physical stores stocking Iron Heart in the UK). I loved the look of the 666L and, after some brilliant service and advice, walked out with a pair of 34s. The fit is fantastic and they look awesome.
After reading through this thread I have a question though; I thought the point of raw denim was that you didn't wash the jeans, but there is a lot of talk on here about pre and post soak. Should I be soaking them before I wear them? If so, why? I'm sure the guy who sold me them probably explained but he gave me so much information (I'm really new to all this) that not all of it sunk in.
Sorry for the long first post. I hope some of you persevered to the end and can help me out.
