IH-777S-142 - 14oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered Jeans - Indigo

[Appfaff]

Gave my sample 142s a machine wash, cold with low spin and hang dry. The knees are electric and whiskers are getting there. Worn almost daily from April to June and 1-2 times per week from June to now. Hopefully we will see temps below 90 coming up soon [emoji57]

The denim shrunk quite a bit with a wash and is SUPER crispy. This is seriously my favorite denim of all time [emoji7]

Do you have experience with the regular 14oz? If so, what are the main differences (other than how the denim is woven) and what makes this your favorite denim of all time?

@xtcclassic -
Sorry for the late reply bud; I had the OG 14oz and while it was very unique, I didn’t care for the way it worked for me.

The new 14oz definitely feels and looks like lighter 21oz flagship and fades really electric.

Threw them in the wash again before our holiday travels. Here is pre-wash. I’m sure @formulapfaff can help me get some decent post wash fit pics [emoji41]

@Appfaff killing the preppy cowboy look 

(I don't even know if that is a thing but you're looking boss at any rate  )

[Appfaff]

Haha thanks @neph93 - very thankful to @Alex and @Giles for letting me beat up this pair! Surprised I’m the only one posting in here…

Oh I’ll be posting in here eventually, these are next on my list. But it’s 25oz weather in St. Louis for the next few months.

And so it begins….

RESTOCK

[xtcclassic]

Picked up a pair of these sooner than expected. I’ve already shipped them off for a hem job, but I snapped a couple pics first. I can already tell I’m going to love them. The 777 might be my new cut.

[neph93]

Damn! Suits you for sure. I've always liked your 666 fit but these may be even better @xtcclassic

[xtcclassic]

Yeah I dig these. I’ll always love the 666 cut but since I lost weight the lower rise of the 777’s seems to work better for some reason.

Nice fit - was my plan also to get these for warmer weather!

@xtcclassic

awesome fit…....I think they look great without being hemmed......have you ever considered stacks ?.... never have

been a fan of stacks until I started wearing great denim and just look at most of @rocket fits…. cheers !

[xtcclassic]

I do usually stack, and I will with these, just not quite this much. I’m taking about 1.5”-2” off, that will still leave plenty of room for stacking.

@Haddtoo 555 haha Cheers ….

looking sharp @xtcclassic

@Appfaff do you recall how much shrink you got in the inseam? I might have to make a panicked call to to place that is hemming mine as I haven’t washed them yet and was planning on no shrinkage with these.

[Appfaff]

I don’t recall the inseam shrunk much at all, maybe a 1/2” at most, but a warm iron brings them back near new size.

And you got a decent amount of stretch in the waist yeah?  I would imagine these would easily get an inch or more.  I'm sure you posted this info in the thread already but my lack of coffee this morning and laziness is preventing me from checking.
