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

Really? Really? ;)… Thanks.

I think with the unknown qualities of a new denim any over dying would be a hideous risk. Possibly a few years down the line when more is known about how it behaves…
Just thought I'd stick my oar in.
Oh, it's been pretty much a week of wear now and this morning was the first morning that I didn't scream in rage and frustration trying to get these buttoned :). They have finally submitted to my will.
Probably do another waist measurement tomorrow to see how they have stretched...
