  • RE: IH-666-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

    @zwer:

    Do you have them hemmed? Makes a difference.

    No, I'm taking them back to self edge and having another inch to inch and a half cut so that I can wear them uncuffed.

    Do you know of anyone who has tapered these jeans before? I'm interested in seeing some pictures.

  • RE: IH-666-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

    I've had my 25oz 666's for a few months now and I'm not a fan of what these jeans do beneath the knee. I think because of the thickness of the denim, the way they often settle is just a bit too baggy there. Is there anything that can be done about that? Is it possible to alter the jeans by giving them a slight taper below the knee? Seems like a specialty job due to the 25oz denim. I live in LA but I dont think self edge will do that type of work. Any thoughts here? I had them hemmed so that I need to cuff them about an inch but I never wear them like that as it really exaggerates this problem - I look at them like i'm wearing bell bottoms. Uncuffing makes it look a little better, but not great.

    Also, i'm a size 38. I think the problem is more pronounced with the bigger sizes. I've gone through this whole thread looking at fit pics and I notice the effect on the fit pics with the bigger sizes. The slimmer-waisted jeans dont seem to do this as much.

    I've been wearing my 25oz devils cut jeans for about a month now, 3-4 times per week. I have about 2" that I need to cuff in order to wear them, however I find that due to the thickness of the fabric, the cuff creates a 'bell' effect at the bottom of the jean which I find ruins the look of the fit. I'm curious how often these jeans are ever finished like a normal pair of pants, with no cuff. Seems like most people wear them with some kind of cuff but I think I'd like them better uncuffed - not stacked, but just 'normal'. Is that not usual for these jeans?

  • RE: IH-666S - The Devil's Fit Indigo - Slim Tapered

    hey, i'm totally new here. I got a pair of the XHS 666 last week. I've worn them several times. I've been reading several pages of this forum and I need to be pointed to some online resources to understand more about the care of them - I dont understand these soak instructions. The guy at self edge gave me a magnet that recommended machine washing them every 45-60 wears, but it looks like there's more to it than that? Also, I need to make sure they don't shrink too much. The self edge website made it seem liek this particular model neither shrinks nor stretches, but it looks like there might be different experiences with this? I'm a size 38 and the 39" waist that this has is perfect for me. I need to make sure I maintain it. Any help would be appreciated. Sorry I sound like such a noob.
