IH-666D - 17oz Duck Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Brown

[tatmantall]

Got my ducks today!!! Really like them quite a bit… I'm having trouble deciding to cuff or not. I like the look of LN's big cuff and we have similar builds.

However I have never, ever cuffed.... So I have a question. If I decide to stack until the  materials settle will it be to late to cuff ? or if I cuff now will I be able to switch off to stack with my converse as opposed to boots?.. Sorry if this is a silly question. Being that I'm 6'6" I've never had much opportunity to expirement with the cuffing of pants. Thanks for any help!!!

Stack… Wear for a while (two weeks of regular wear should do)... Then decide... Or have 'm hemmed but at least add 0.5 - 0.75" to your required length for combs and such...

Thanks Seul!

Go ahead, you know you want to…

You won't regret it Shoreman. They break in beautifully too. The initial texture

I think cuffs are a boot thing while stacks are a sneaker thing (though chucks can go either way). In case you were curious, my cuffs are rolled to the inside and then to the outside so that the cuff is right side out.

Right on thanks LN, I agree and definetly more of a boot man myself.. every once in a while on weekends you may catch me in a pair of sneakers for a short time (before I get uncomfortable and put my boots back on)

That's an interesting cuff  you have …I ended up putting about a 3" cuff on them... at my height though I really do not have the extra length to double cuff.

the sizing table says 36.5 for inseam. I measure 37.5 for my devil's duck.

I love these but the fact that they're not selvage is the kicker to me…I'm such a sucker for that selvage ID

Washing detergent… Accident at work...    It dried and there's no discolouring though...

You and the pig mask…. This stain at your work place..... We're unsure of what you do for a living but we can all assume it can get pretty pretty fishy lol

You guys must be enjoying valentines day at your job

Hi all!  New here and have a question.  I've been waiting on  a restock of the 666s but have been lusting after these after looking through this thread.  Now I know the 666s isn't all that great for warm weather but what about the ducks?  Do they breath any better than the 18oz?  Thanks.

[Seul]

Better than the 18oz denim, I'm sure, but still a rather heavy fabric…

[Giles]

A lot better, I find them great for an English Summer (not that is saying much)…

[309misbehaviors]

OK thanks for the quick reply.  Def leaning towards the ducks now.  Hmmmm, on second thought maybe both!   need some variation as I've been wearing f310 only for the past year+…

[Seul]

If you managed 310s, you'll be able to handle 666Ds, no doubt!..

[309misbehaviors]

Good to hear!  Now about sizing.  I ordered a pair of buster 21oz a while back in size 34.  They were  perfect at first but quickly stretched in the waist too much and I had to sell.  So a true 33 waist is perfect for me.  Should I go 34 or 33 ?

[Seul]

The standard Busters?.. A tagged 34 measures about 33" in the waist for those… Tagged 33 in the 666D measures around 16-16.5" plus you can EASILY and quickly stretch it an inch if the need be... So yeah: go with a 33 if you ask me...  I'm a true size 33 and wear the 666Ds in a tagged 33...
