IH-888S-SBG - 21oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise SBG

@Paul9221:

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

Oh, that's good to know!  We appreciate your efforts!

That definitely clears up my waste measurement concerns.. I’m somehow more pumped for this pair now.

Update:

Thanks, England. Measurments will come as soon as they can, but likely after launch. Please treat these as one washed

They shrunk beyond vanishing point!

@neph93

My thought exactly.  Poof!

[spitfiredealer]

Are these going to be in continuous production? Not exactly the best time for me to be buying jeans at the moment.

I believe that is the plan. The aim is to have all core cuts in continuous production in the core denims.

Sweet, might grab a pair for the winter at work then

I'm pumped for you picking these up!  I can't think of anyone that fades gear like you

[spitfiredealer]

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

Thanks, Alex!

That's pretty minimal shrink at high temps. If we stick to cold soaks, maybe even warm soaks, shrinkage should be negligible?

[Alex]

I would have though so, yes

Snagged a pair of these thanks to Graham and Adam for the assist!  I love the fit.  I both welcome the grey fade and hope it doesn't come too soon

@Paul9221 well done sir… I have massive want for these. It will happen one day but is not possible right now. In the meantime I will just have to sit here and deal with my intense envy of you 

[AdamC]

They look great @Paul9221 - I am with you @neph93 these will happen for me one day too!
