IH-888S-142od - 14oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut - OD Indigo

@Manticore:

Well I did pick up a pair and love this lighter weight OD! My well-worn 634S-B have stiff competition now.

I'm exactly in your same situation: 634S-B and now 888s-142od.
Flagship 21oz IH denim is one of the best in the world (if not THE BEST), and I can't wait to make the comparison with the new 14oz, made with the same procedures.

While I still love these, I think I probably could have gone a size down as originally planned but I got spooked by the measurements. Still extremely comfy though and I can easily eat my way into having these fit snugger…

[georgeel]

Here they are!

First of all, you can keep your old "We don't do light" motto: They are heavy enough to be 14oz!
Second, now I put them on and I don't take them off until Christmas!

Hi all! I just picked up my pair of IH-888-142od at Mildblend in Chicago last weekend. They are my first pair of Iron hearts and I look forward to breaking these in and being part of this awesome community! Pics to follow shortly!!

Thank you!
I'm wearing them every day and I'm really enjoying the cut. I wait patiently for the fabric to reveal entirely  its qualities. I expect a lot from this "light" version of the world's best selvedge denim!

Yes indeed. Very tidy 888 fit.

With Graham’s assistance - thank you again! - I was able to snag a pair of these earlier today. Can’t wait to throw them into the rotation.

First impressions.. it’s great to be back in IH denim. It’s my first experience with the 14oz denim, but it’s tremendous. The sizing is proper - room up top, tapered bottom.

Looking forward to beating these up.

Thanks IH crew!

Looking good @Appfaff. Love the colour of your footwear, are they converse? Any chance of a footwear close up?

[Appfaff]

It’s just white converse (70s) with some poor color balance lol

Here is an unedited photo -
For some reason they do look a bit blue-grey in photos

Cheers Adam I actually thought they were baby blue / egg shell blue.
