IH-666S-19L - 19oz Left Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Slim Cut (The Devil's Fit)

[mclaincausey]

My guess is that twill makes less of a difference than people think. Yarn properties and gauge, weave tension, how many dips and in what…  My hunch is that these make a bigger difference than the orientation of the serge.

But you hear LHT is flatter, has blurrier, more vertical fades (so I guess less contrasted). My LHT jeans are going to have serious contrast though.

EDIT: Summer those look fanrastic

Awesome fit Summer!
You wear em perfectly.

The third picture highlights just how hairy these mothers are!

[tatmantall]

Those look bad ass man!

[summ3rhays]

I appreciate the kind words. My first pair hemmed short enough to stack rather than cuff. It was unnerving asking for a 32" inseam. I tried to capture how hairy they are, but it's tough with phone pics.

[JamesMarg]

I think i will be going the 32'' inseam on my pending pair of XHS's aswell!
I have my 555-01's hemmed to 33
And they are a bit long

May i ask how tall you are summer?

[Finn666]

def. the best fit so far buddy…what size are these? 36?

[summ3rhays]

Yes they are the 36. Waist is a little large, but a hot soak brought them down a touch.

I'm 6" tall, but have proportionately short legs.

[Seul]

Those look absolutely perfect on you, summ3r!..

Some pics, because now I'm only limited by my "skill" rather than having to use my phone…

first touch of evo I noticed on Sunday morning

And one of the patch, because I really like it and I don't think I've posted one yet

And a terrible comparison with my VMCs

[JamesMarg]

Those combs are setting in nicely Morose!
In the last picture they look so light, and some white seems to be poking through already!?
Surely just the lighting?

[JamesMarg]

Oh wait….
I'll shut up, i didn't read the VMC's bit... HAHA

[Morose_Penguin]

Yep, the lighter pair are my IH666-VMC, over two years old now. You've just bought a pair as the IH666-XHS.

[Madame Buttonfly]

Great pics, Morp 

[Morose_Penguin]

Really? Really? ;)… Thanks.

[Jpie14]

These jeans look beautiful!!
I wouldve pulled the trigger by now if I hadnt just bought my raw busters
but… hey Giles would you consider overdying these??

@Jpie14:

but… hey Giles would you consider overdying these??

Probably not…

[Morose_Penguin]

I think with the unknown qualities of a new denim any over dying would be a hideous risk. Possibly a few years down the line when more is known about how it behaves…

Just thought I'd stick my oar in.

Oh, it's been pretty much a week of wear now and this morning was the first morning that I didn't scream in rage and frustration trying to get these buttoned :). They have finally submitted to my will.

Probably do another waist measurement tomorrow to see how they have stretched...

@Morose_Penguin:

Nail, hit, head.

[Morose_Penguin]

Seem to be on a roll this morning :). Might buy a lottery ticket later…
