      My 666s 21oz just arrived today
      Since they are sanforised which don't need pre-soak. But I saw many of you guys did warm-soak before wearing. So I'm wondering is it necessary to do pre-soak? Thank guys 🙂

              ^that's a very nice pair. How long have you owned and how many washes?

                Thanks, @1fookntitefd!

                I bought it in October 2015. Washes? I did not keep track of it, but I believe not more than 5 washes. October 2016 I bought a Samurai and since then I switch every now and then.

                      Finally got around to soaking my pair. Good news is I got my sizing right!

                      They are still stiff as a board! My wife often refers to my jeans as "stiffies"  😃 and these certainly qualify.

                          The IH-666S is now officially ENDANGERED :o (which means it will gradually be phased out as it is replaced by the IH-666S-18).

                          However, we will probably do another production run of missing sizes, so for now the "request an email when restocked" is still enabled.

                              End of an era! Fortunately the vintage 18oz is seriously good stuff.

                                We had to decide whether to continue with 2 18oz denims or cut one out.  I decided that sticking with one was a more sensible approach….

                                  Does this mean the SH-177 and SH-178 18oz CPO's will switch to the 18oz vintage in the future too?

                                    I have enough for about 200 somethings of the original (IH-666S) 18oz denim, the IHSH-177 and 178 are safe for a while…...

                                      I agree, I have a pair myself.

                                      Makes sense. Does this mean that this denim is going away completely then? Not just in this cut?

                                          That's sad.One of the most beautiful denims out there.Would it be a good idea to run 888?Does it mean after retiring 21/23 and 18oz IH goes fully sanforized ?
