@V-P Please study these links as the jeans (555, 666, 777) you listed all have different characteristics. Starting off with a pair that most closely matches your end goal will make the process much easier on you and the tailor.

@V-P I agree with your request. The 888 and 777 don't work for me. The low rise of the 777 makes me look weird and the 888 seems way to relaxed up top. I found a lady that tapers my jeans for $15 here around town. Fantastic job. She did my 21oz(attached) and currently has my 14oz ib and duck 555's. She's tapering them a little less at the hem than pictured. As it's hard to put on my tall lace ups.

[V-P]

@CosmoSix5 Thanks, that looks great! Does she taper them from the inside or the outside seam?

[CosmoSix5]

@V-P the pair in the pic she did the selvedge/outside. So she didn't cut the fabric. I asked for the inseam to be cut this time.

has anyone done a cut inspired by the 1873's or 1880 Nevadas?

Is sleep fading a real thing?

That's so cool! I'll do that until my wife tells me to sleep in tent :).

Probably not, but some of us are obsessed enough with our denim that we sleep in it. Moreso because we just love to wear it 24/7, not so much that we expect any real difference in fading. With that said, I do wear my overdyed UHFs to bed and they look more worn than they would had I left them on a hanger in my closet. So, no, but maybe, probably not but something may happen.

I feel like, outside of the fading potential, sleeping in our denim speeds up how quickly it molds and shapes to our body....as well as softens the denim faster. I've also noticed a much more rapid amount of drool build up on my right sleeves.

Is there a certain day of the week the forum calendar gets updated for restocks, launches, etc, or is it just random? Also, is it usually just projecting out 10 days give or take when it does update?

[seawolf]

@wjw it’s totally random. Restocks happen when they happen.

[wjw]

@seawolf I knew that the restocking itself was "random", but I was curious if the frequency of the calendar updating was random as well

[seawolf]

@wjw which calendar are you referring to?

[wjw]

@seawolf the one on the forum

[seawolf]

@wjw are you talking about the release schedule?

[wjw]

@seawolf on my phone when you hit the menu on the top left and then click calendar. Not sure if that is also called the release schedule.

[Giles]

Random. We update stuff when we have something to update.

Is there any possibility that there will be a re-run of ISH-170?
