IH-777S-142 - 14oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered Jeans - Indigo
-
Hi everybody , I am new in the IH community and want to introduce myself. I am a 61 year old male living in The Netherlands. Still feel like a 25 year old though despite the guy in the mirror telling me different ! I am rather slim hence I wanted to give the 777S 142 a goafter having read about the different blocks of IH. I have been a raw adapt since many decades and “my” jeans has always been the Lee 101S in dry. I know, I know 13.75oz is nothing vs what You guys use to wear but I will give the heavier denim a try via the 14oz and take it from there
Now I have bought a 777S 142 and the fit is fine but I would like to have a little more room along the upper legs.
Waist in size 33 is fine for me and also the taper (hem) is o.k. But I find the denim a little tight atound my upper legs.
Now I have read that there is not much stretch to be expected from this fabric but I want to know if the 14oz will get a bit more “easy” on the upper legs by wearing them for a week or so. I already gave them a soak in a bath tub with handwarm water and vinegar in order to have the final hemming length clear. I had them hemmed here in Amsterdam with a Union Special machine. So cool to see these old machines doing the job. ( and Youri the tailor is a super guy as well)
Please let me know what I can expect about “give” in these jeans .
Thanks a lot ! -
Picked up a pair at SENY recently. Wife and I will be moving somewhere quite a bit more humid in ~6 months, and I found 25 oz denim rather unpleasantly sweaty while visiting, so bought something much lighter.
A sharp new pair of jeans really pairs well with my color 2 wing tip Aldens. I definitely new yellow shirting to go with my Phin /Ebbets Ukraine colors cap.

@Alex, any updates on the ETA for these?

Showing September now, sorry.
Thanks, Alex. I saw that Self Edge still has my size in stock, so I might go that route.

I've been putting a lot of wear into these lately and they are starting to come alive, definitely a fan of the 14oz denim and excited to see where they go.

I’ve been wearing mine at work a lot lately since it’s cooled down. Finally getting some fades after 3 washes

Hey looking for fit check help!
Looks good? Too tight? These are 30.
Feels a bit tight in crotch area but unsure if they will relax.

Hello everyone
This is my first pair of ironheart jeans and between 555 and 777 I opted for the 777 mostly because the 555 were wider in Tight. As far as I can see now, each model has specific measures so I am closely following new models, especially Overdyed black. I'm going to put up pictures, which makes me think they're just a little too big. Maybe they adapt by wearing
