IH-666S-BK - 21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Superblack (SBG)
-
Received my pair yesterday, and I've worn them for most of the day today. They also happen to be my first IH pair, which is a bit weird. Anyway, thought I'd share some initial thoughts!
-I've never owned a pair with a tighter top block.
-Probably the most uncomfortable pair I've owned haha, but I can already feel them loosening up. That being said, I've worn the same pair for almost three years, so I'm not used to new denim.
-The fit is pretty fucking fantastic for a slim straight.
-Back pockets are too small! Can hardly fit my phone in there..Overall I'm satisfied, because the fit seems just right.

A bit snug on the thighs, but from the feel of the denim, they can certainly stretch a bit.
21oz will stretch, no doubt. Congratulations.
How stubborn are these, fade wise?
I have the SBG BB's. Same denim. They have a special, rather nice way of fading. I find then stubborn, buy then again I think all SBG/ sulphur dyed denim is, especially compared to regular indigo denim. The contrast between blue and white is is always going to be stronger than black and grey. Here's my back (wallet) pocket after 60 days og wear.
Damn those look awesome! Drool.
I wish I had jumped on the sbg bb's when I had the chance. SBG denim with black stitching is pure money.
Hopefully one day there's a 666sbg with black stitching. They belong together like hand in glove. -
@Iron swan if you're a small guy R&H have one pair left in W28. I have to say that the 21oz loves the SBG treatment. Great denim.

I'm not much for fit pics. The lighting in my hall with my little mirror sucks. I'm so happy with these jeans I had to. These are probably my favorite jeans out of the bag I've ever had. I was hesitant about the yellow threads, but in person they are the right choice on these pants. I'm glad to have sbg in this cut, the 8301 did not work for me. I strongly back these for anyone looking for 666. Thanks for all the help picking them out @Winchy 21oz for life.
Now I just have to wait for them to get hemmed.

Excellent fit dude! I wish I could make the 666 cut work… they look perfect!

Thanks for the pics and update @Cfk87, they're looking good.

Tonal stitching on sbg does looks killer. I hate to make recommendtions on things like this because aesthetics are so subjective, but the yellow threads look much better in person than in photographs, imo. I was hesitant on these because of the yellow, but after getting them I really like the way they look. I also suspect the thread color will mellow after a lot wear and really look great.

Is this a good denim for fades ? Don't see too much activity on this thread . Just bought one and looking forward to gray fades
