IH-666S-19L - 19oz Left Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Slim Cut (The Devil's Fit)

Damn you! Stop quoting me! I'm weak dammnit I'm weak!

The next run should be December, according to Zhivago, who asked Giles…

I know no one really knows how these will turn out. But what is everyone's thoughts on these compared to the 18oz ? I know absolutely nothing about left hand twill besides it is smoother and lighter in color. But these do not look like either of those. Does left hand twill generally have a lower contrast fade than right hand twill ? I had a pair of 666S for a minute but the thighs were too small and i will have to size up if I decide to go with 18oz again. But the 19L measurements look pretty good for me.

Had to go retrieve my jeans from my office even though I am still technically on vacation. Stealth mode.
Love the fit on these. Soaking them now but here are a few pics presoak.

My guess is that twill makes less of a difference than people think. Yarn properties and gauge, weave tension, how many dips and in what… My hunch is that these make a bigger difference than the orientation of the serge.
But you hear LHT is flatter, has blurrier, more vertical fades (so I guess less contrasted). My LHT jeans are going to have serious contrast though.
EDIT: Summer those look fanrastic

Those look bad ass man!

I appreciate the kind words. My first pair hemmed short enough to stack rather than cuff. It was unnerving asking for a 32" inseam. I tried to capture how hairy they are, but it's tough with phone pics.
-
Yes they are the 36. Waist is a little large, but a hot soak brought them down a touch.
I'm 6" tall, but have proportionately short legs.

Yep, the lighter pair are my IH666-VMC, over two years old now. You've just bought a pair as the IH666-XHS.

Great pics, Morp
