How many jeans/ pants in your rotation??
-
Definitely think being a part of indigo invitational Y2 helps stick to one pair as you want to see what 1 whole year of wearing a pair of IH jeans will look like and same again with Y3. Just got to look at Hall of Fades those 666XHS are incredible hoping mine turn out like that.
I try my other pairs on from time to time check they still fit lol -
I mean, the real pro tip is to just sleep in your jeans like @Filthy . That's the most ingenious solution I've come across. You could always bring on a fading intern

I slept in my FGL-19L last night as a matter of fact.

Man I would totally do that but I run hot and basically boil if I wear anything while I sleep. I often question why the fuck I moved from a cold-ass place to an equally opposite hot-ass place ::)

Oooh, good thread!
I've got the following on steady rotation:
-
IH-888XHS
-
IH-888XHSbb
-
IH-888d
-
Samurai S520XX18oz-SB Arakage
-
Orslow slim fatigue pants
And once a week, I hike in my Pronto x Iron Heart PIH15AN.
The 888XHS and Samurai S520XX18oz get the most love, but they all have a great spot in the wardrobe.

I have several pairs on consistent rotation at this point—too many to really see results.
463 get the most, because the fit is golden.
777D
801 black
814
814blk
888SST
816 navy duck
PIHDCTThere’s some other pairs kicking around that see wear occasionally, and other brands almost never that I don’t part with. Needless to say, I have a big closet. Not a [mention]ROman [/mention] level closet…but still

@ROman doesn’t have a closet, it’s an archive.
I’m currently going to my summer weight 888 Eco selvedge. When I find myself suffering from single pair fatigue it swap them out for my Pronto slubs, Beatle Busters, 777D and 777SBG. When the weather turns I’ll get back into my DR cargos.
I’m definitely getting the Anniversry jeans in September and am on the fence about some UHR. In the past year I sold off some UHR, XHS and 18oz double indigo all with the intention of replacing with newer models.
My summer jeans typically get the most consistent wear because I usually have fewer pairs of light weight jeans. My TW666 were faded pretty good. Sold them too.

@goosehd the heat is currently on par with the rest of the world. That is to say hot and muggy. It’s usually very dry here and pleasant in the shade and at night but we’re having a pretty active monsoon season so it’s much more humid than usual. Fall, winter and spring are no problem at all for XHS and UHR.

For those of you who live in the warmer/muggier places in the world (ie. southern USA), what jeans do you like for the summer months? Does not have to be IH.

I have mainly 4 pairs in rotation. 14,21,25 and UHR. During summer my main pair is the 14oz which I really love. In addition a couple of chinos for the office.
During the other three season I really rotate regularly.
I always love to have a nice crisp fresh unfaded pair available -

my 1st pr ih666xhs is my goto year round. pihxhs for dinners/dates/office days when i have to work with the executives. ih555xhsbb’s as well and trying for them to become my “goto” pr. all are too big due to the weight i've lost. my other pr’s get worn minimally.
these days and working remote, i mainly wear basketball shorts, t’s, and flip flops.

I’m in the Midwest US and it gets plenty sticky here. I actually prefer my 18oz vintage over my 14oz because I feel like they breath a little better despite being “heavier”. Love both but I wear the 18’s the most.

Do you notice a big difference between the 18oz and the 21oz?
