Everything we do is a toe in the water, if we don't get burnt, have the toe eaten, etc, then we are likely to try again….

Understood.  Thanks @Giles.

How much taper will I lose if I have them hemmed to a 30/30.5? What leg opening will that give me?

[Giles]

Total inseam in inches minus 13 = Lower leg

Knee minus hem in inches = Taper

Taper/Lower Leg = Taper per inch (TPI)

Number of inches you want to shorten inseam by multiplied by TPI equals the amount the hem will be larger than original hem

The science of denim cuts. Love it

[Geeman]

So,  0.2 inches then.

I just sent my pair in with Self Edge and got them hemmed to 33". I'm picking them up Friday. I'll put them to the test there. And update with some fit pics. Can't wait to put theses in heavy rotation

[Fadez]

Due to our AC breaking last night. Had to schedule last minute all day appointment. Will post pics once I can make it back to the city. Woof. It's gonna be a hot one today

The 777 hemmed to 33".

If I do a 35 waist in the 666D, would you recommend a 35 in this too? Looking for a slimmer fit than the 666D but the waist on them seems right.

[Fadez]

I would buy a tagged 34 pair. I'm guessing you have a tagged 36 pair in the 666D. The 21oz has a good bit of waist stretch. I wish I actually sized down one myself.

[setandsetting]

Oops yeah, sorry you're right. I've got a tagged 36 in the 666D.

[Fadez]

All good. Just measure your 666D the IH way and compare and contrast with the chart. But I would recommend the tag 34". Own it love it.

[setandsetting]

My 666D's actually measure 35.5, so I may be better off sticking with tagged 35 in this?

What size does @Giles wear? I'm usually whatever that is +1 in shirts so maybe that'll hold true for jeans too.

If you can manage the thigh on the tagged 34 then go with them. The waist on 21oz jeans will easily stretch an inch after only a weeks wear. My 301s stretched 2 inches.

He doesn't. My calves are too large, I can't get them on…

Any plans to make the 777's in a Super-Black Fade-to-Grey 8)?

[Fadez]

I think there is a collaboration with a retailer…But it hasn't been released yet. If you want something similar. The 8301S from Self Edge are a good choice. Or size down 1 in a 666SBG
