IH-888S-SBG - 21oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise SBG
-
I don't have any SBG, do I have to account for any shrinkage with those measurements?
If it is the same as earlier batches of SBG then yes. On a par with XHS.
If @Alex gets his act together and ships me a pair of W33 then I will happily do the shrink test and document it for the greater good [emoji16][emoji23]

Neph, if I remember correctly from my constant lurking, it's fair to say that the 21oz fabric stretches a significant amount. Looks like I'm in between tag 31 and 32. I will probably go tag 31.

The SBG stretches like all denim, and while it is essentially the same base as the regular 21oz in terms of the materials and weave, my experience is that it doesn’t stretch quite as readily as the regular 21oz. You’ll get an inch for sure after shrinkage. I’d go for a starting measurement about the same as you want them to end up, maybe half an inch less.
-
Should I expect something similar with these?
Around about that. Go look at the IH-555-SBG thread there were a couple of tests done there. If I remember correctly they a little under an inch in the waist, an inch or so on the inseam and about a third of an inch in the thigh.
Wait for someone from the crew to confirm that this behaves like earlier batches of the SBG denim. It probably does, but it's best to know for sure.

We asked for these to be one washed unlike the 555-03, so expect no shrinkage. To be sure, I’m going to shrink test a pair now though. Will post measurements ASAP, but will be close to launch time
Update:
Thanks, England. Measurments will come as soon as they can, but likely after launch. Please treat these as one washed
-
My thought exactly. Poof!
-
Are these going to be in continuous production? Not exactly the best time for me to be buying jeans at the moment.

I'm pumped for you picking these up! I can't think of anyone that fades gear like you
-
Thank you ^^^
I have always wanted to fade a pair of this denim but could never get the 555’s to work. Going back to work next week so hopefully the bank balance will start to look better and I can grab a pair
