IH-777S-14 - Super Slim Tapered 14oz Indigo Selvedge
-
Any big dudes get these and wear with success? Wanting to
Add a slim cut in the 14oz in the future so keeping my eyes on these…Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I wouldn't call myself a big dude but I do lift (6', 176 lbs. 6-8% body fat range depending on time of year) so I've got some muscle and slim fits can be very difficult for me in the thigh measurements and rise. I've generally preferred straight/slim straight fits. With that being said I have a pair of these and I love them. The 777 cut is a great fit for me but what I did was ask the IH crew to send me the pair in my waist size with the largest thigh measurement and it worked out good. This is probably the slimmest fit I would want to go with and the front and rear rise are at the lowest I could get away with, but they still work great.
This 14oz is a great denim btw, just like most all of IH fabrics.

Thanks for the feedback @manufc10 - I may give them a shot when the time comes!

Interesting that you should say that. I was thinking exactly the same yesterday. I have been wearing my first sample pair (of the 666 cut) for about 15months. Unless I am in the tropics, I wear them everyday. I am hard on jeans, but the denim on these is standing up to abuse, better than any other denim I have have worn…..I have one bust constructional thread that I have not fixed (Sarina noticed it in May but I have not bothered to fix yet) and the warp has given up on some of the high abrasion spots (hidden rivets), but really, they are in amazing nick.....

Let's see some pics of them when you get a chance G.

Yes, please. I love my 14oz 666's, the denim is fantastic. I'd love to see pics of how they look with a lot of wear.

Here they are in June….

the wear in looks great on your pair @Giles. These are easily my most worn pair as well as I live in the low desert (Phoenix) and the weight works perfect. I love the heavier fabrics but in all reality I can't wear them as much as 16oz and below fabrics. I think I have roughly 2-3 months in mine, one wash, and although no real noteworthy fades to speak of, they are coming along very nicely and they are a great shade of Indigo.
I'm so glad you guys came out with these and I'm definitely looking forward to the overdye. I've already determined I'm getting a pair.

These fits look great, definitely thinking about these as my next pair.

You would rock them well @David_pll !

Too kind! @Appfaff

This recent restock is measuring up differently so please see updated sizing chart. Tags 31 to 34, 38 & 40 are the 'new' sizes.
-
The hem is smaller on a 42 than a 40?
-
and thigh is smaller on a 36 than a 34??
-
There is the usual variance so if you're after something in particular just get in touch.
