Starting to show a little (tiny) bit of contrast.

Fit check. Too tight or just right? (I know it is not too loose lol)

@Crispy-Heron That is what I am hoping for. They are so comfortable. I walked my dog 9 miles in them today

RE: IH-555S-21od - 21oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Jeans - Indigo Overdyed Black
@tnjyoung Yes they'd undoubtedly been machine washed several times, in my experience the overdyed won't give you the 'electric' blue contrast you see with our Indigo/Black denim and as @peregrine mentions, might be worth giving a IB denim a shot
Not gonna lie, kinda missed the roominess of the 805’s while wearing these today.
I guess this is what I am looking for. I consider this a very good contrast and I was wondering if these jeans will ever be able to get to this level?

RE: IH-555S-21od - 21oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Jeans - Indigo Overdyed Black
I haven't washed my ODs much, so I can't comment on how much the red W pops. My guess would be that it'd become a bit more prominent with wears and washes, but maybe not as bright as if it'd never been overdyed.
The 555 definitely has higher rise and slightly roomier overall top block than the 666 though. The xtra room for the boys is for sure noticeable
Thank you! I am not planning to wash so I was referring to color reveal based on wear alone. Oh well, I am loving the fit. Here they are (with and without sun/jacket) within 20 minutes of putting them on.

Another Summer in the books. These shed a lot of Indigo this season & really started to show some amazing evo. Wish the iPhone camera wouldn't lose its mind with denim.
Those are sexy AF! Great job. Would love to know how you treated these. Lots of washes? No washes? Hard wearing? What else?

I know these are ancient posts, but I really appreciate these photos. I have been "google searching", "Pinterest searching", and "web searching", but I can find nearly zero good photos that reference the 14oz fade potential. I just picked up a used pair of 14oz on eBay and cannot wait to try them out. If they eventually even come close to these I will be far more than pleased.

Thank you! I am comfortable with them. I feel a bit stiff, but no pain or chafing

@Sam 
These are the most stubborn to give up indigo of all IH I have owned.

I have just noticed something as my IH-555-21ods have begun to break in. It is almost as if they are made of suede or something. I can run my hand across them in one direction and they turn light. Run it across in the opposite direction and they turn darker. So far they are fading almost "gray-like", with just a tiny amount of blue pigment showing through. Just thought you guys may want to know about this characteristic. Pretty cool.
