IH-777N - 17oz Selvedge Denim Super-Slim Tapered Cut Jeans - Natural Indigo
-
Was dying in 21oz, but these 17N’s are saving me big time this summer. They’re not necessarily breathable, but light enough to not be restrictive at all even if they don’t stretch much. Very comfortable while working in the sun all day in mid 80F. And heavy duty enough to protect my legs while spraying sealant all day.
-
Still keeping them going for the summer. Soaked & washed weekly for the past 6 weeks.

roping, tracks, whiskers, beautiful

The texture on those look amazing @RoxRocks86
I have a hard time with 21oz in the summer heat too, especially spending any time doing anything physical. -
Much thanks, fellas

Does Ironheart ever do a hand dyed natural indigo variant?

Still working on em. Some signs of evo emerging.

Update

@mclaincausey that is the fit I’d look for with the 777 cut: a bit of looseness on the thighs (similar to a 633). Don’t enjoy snug thigh fits and I have skinny thighs…never did a leg day in a gym. Mind you, I’ve yet to try a 777, so please bear with my questions.
So, how do you manage this? I’m guessing you pick a slightly larger tag (waist) size than you would on other cuts (say a 888 or a 634), and accept you need a belt to keep them from slipping?
Thank you for any insight -
Current update w/some detail shots.

@RoxRocks86 excellent! those look well loved

@motojobobo man I am so so sorry for having missed this. I was not ignoring you.
I think it’s just a good cut for me, or maybe a good instance of the cut, as I sized TTS. My IH journey has gone from 634 to 666 to 777. One thing that I especially love about these is that there is ample room to use the front pockets. Despite the tape reinforcement, I tend to wear out IH pockets in the past and that’s not an issue with these. These may be slim by IH standards but they’re plenty roomy for me and have resulted in my leaving some Strike Gold LHT that is a great denim hanging in the closet.
@RoxRocks86 your jeans are among my favorites on here right now.
Here are mine today:
Also not sure how Rox gets that stack of nickels. Mine are cool but not on that level:

@mclaincausey dude sick no cap (to borrow slang from my teenager)

@RoxRocks86 @mclaincausey -- great examples of how good this 17oz denim can become over time.
