@Kavorka they do not

@Kavorka:

Do these have black taped front pocket openings?

Not 100% sure, but I very much doubt it. 21oz denim doesn’t need it.

Any idea when these will be restocked?

Iron Heart Germany still has quite a few sizes left in stock, fyi.

@LawDawgLSU won't be till next year. They are on our list of things to re-run

I have had a marbling nightmare on my SBGs - see photo.  100 wears in and after some work in the garden, (somehow) I washed them without turning inside out, etc.

Any hints how to save my SBGs?

Wear ‘em some more! Those marbles will ahem fade into the background with more wear. You could also just wash them a few more times and go for a good ole washed Levi’s look

Roughly 70 full days wear, office based mainly so no hard labour, but developing nicely nonetheless.

Been rained on a few times but feel no need to wash them anytime soon.

Great purchase, love 'em!

The time has come for a wash after an unfortunate incident with some tomato ketchup this morning…

To avoid marbling, I plan to wash inside-out at 30c on a low spin cycle.

Is there anything else I can do to reduce the risk of this? I don't normally baby my jeans but I've read that this SBG denim is prone to unpredictability when washing...

@T4920 Presoak the jeans inside out in the bath or shower (only need to get them throughly wet) before putting in the wash.  Additionally, I always wash my SBG or ducks with a no spin wash cycle.  They will come out of the wash dripping wet, but it is worth the hassle.  Lastly, do not turn them right side out until completely air dried.

@T4920 looks good for 70 days of wear

How long do you recommend soaking them for? And in warm or cold water?

Cold water and it really doesn't have to be long at all.  Soak long enough to get the jeans thoroughly saturated then transport them to the washing machine dripping wet.

Cheers! Let's see how this goes…

Amazed how much black these shed in the wash.

Pre-soaked, 30c wash, no spin.

Slight marbling, but all part of the wabi-sabi baby [emoji1365][emoji3590]

Roughly 100 days wear.

Excuse the shitty quality and the mess in the background, but I just wanted to acknowledge how much I love the 666 cut… They feel so roomy and unrestrictive, but somehow maintain such a sharp and fitted silhouette on my body type.

I wanted to try all of the IH cuts in time, but starting to think I shouldn't mess with a good thing....

I'd say these have officially faded to grey after 6 months and two washes.

Love the contrast between them and my new OD Lefty!
