Thanks
I am seriously considering to place order soon for 666s but not vintage one . I love how the other 666s fade

Sexy old git!

The coming of of highly anticipated "Yenim" threatens to overshadow this very interesting model, which, however, promises to be the next best seller!
I'm keeping an eye on them every day and, thank God, are extant!

[th3o]

Hooray!
Giles, are you going to hem it or leave as is?

[Giles]

I took 2" off the inseam BEFORE that photo was taken….I'm leaving them like that...

@georgeel I totally agree!

Hope they're still around in May-June. Could be great summer riding jeans.

copped and arriving tomorrow - super excited for these.

[xtcclassic]

I'm super jealous. Post some pics! I need to live vicariously through everyone that's getting these now.

[xtcclassic]

Nervous that I may have made a big enough bonus today that these might be feasible.  :-\

Came into the office this morning and the first thing Giles says to me is "Need you to take some photos of my backside" Alright, it's going to be that sort of freaky Friday is it?… ok, i'll go get the wide angle lens.

Turns out he just wanted some photos of his fades. Phew!

[Giles]

If I remember correctly, your response was "with or without your trousers on?"…

[Max Power]

They look like fast faders!

[manufc10]

lol…thank god it was with the trousers on!

[xtcclassic]

Sweet! And my blue bag just landed today. Can't wait to try 'em on…

Sir, have these softened up a bit and broken in or are they still rigid?

They FEEL like fast faders. They have a rougher texture than I'm used to from IH, my initial impression was that the denim felt similar to Samurai denim. Weight-wise they don't feel much heavier than my 14oz 666's (which feel heavier than 14oz), although that may be partially due to not having worn the 14oz since October or so (I've been wearing my 25oz 666's for the winter).

Even though the denim is rougher and a bit on the rigid side, it still has some softness to it. It doesn't feel as rough or rigid as I was expecting after reading some of the initial reviews from others who have purchased this denim. I can't wait to see how it evolves. I feel like between the 14oz, these, the 21oz, the 23oz Self Edge collabs, and the 25oz, I have a pair of IH for all climate conditions (and enough pairs in rotation to finally start seeing some killer fades in the year 2037 lol).

Softened up a bit, but it's only 2 weeks….
