IH-777-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered Jeans - Indigo/Black

Assuming you have ordered them unhemmed then try them on. If they fit ok and you can get them done up I would recommend a soak to get the shrinkage out. Then you know what your dealing with and have a week or so of awkwardness ahead of you.

If they are too snug you have the choice of returning them or wearing for a couple of weeks to stretch them, then soaking.

Feel free to post pics of you’re unsure.

The buttons tend to be difficult the first two or three goes with a soak or otherwise. Holding the holes open with reverse pliers helps a lot.

Sounds like a plan.

Thanks for all your help.  I’ll drop some photos when the Jeans show up!

Could I run a quick fit check by you all? Thank you! Day 3 in these beauts - worried the thighs are too tight/hoping they stretch out a bit. No soaks for me until month 6 typically.

@rodspeed I'd say that is your own judgement call. Personally I think they look good in the leg and would definitely wear them like that.

I would be worried about the shrinkage you'll get with a wash/soak however. They will probably loose 0.3-0.5" in the thigh and then they may cause you some trouble.

Go running, biking or do some squat, may help to stretch

@rodspeed -  The silhouette on your pair looks dope but I can tell the fit would be too tight for me, esp after some shrink.  I sold my last pair of XHSib because I couldn’t get full range of motion.  Sized up this year & am loving the freedom.

They look a little tight (and therefore uncomfortable) to me. Also, a soak will make the thighs not work anymore, probably.

Thanks for the feedback. They’re pretty comfortable now, so I’m not going to stress it. Cheers.

Went Xmas tree hunting today in my 777s. These have seen one cold soak and have stretched out to become quite comfy.

@rodspeed  You will also get that EVO. JUST WEAR A LOT. Picked a very nice tree to.

@rodspeed I think those look great, just wear the hell out of them and when you wash em they will probably go back to how they are at first. Stretch em then shrink em back to normal, inseam wont come back of course, but you get it

I think these are in the verge of really shedding some blue. A couple more weeks of crawling around in my car should do the trick…

looking good @Smiladon
