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

Seem to be on a roll this morning :). Might buy a lottery ticket later…
-
What fast evo! Looking forward to see these faded. Might be more tempting than the UHR…
-
Yep,
I'm looking forward to seeing what happens to them.

Excited to see how these stretch. Personally I really like how much the 18oz denim gives but I'd be okay with more give.
Seems like these will have incredible fading properties.
What are the chances of there being a 555-19L? Cause that'd be awesome. -
Well, I measured them this morning. After a week of pretty much constant daily wear (apart from Thu and Fri 6hrs per day on those days) they now measure 15.5".
So an inch after almost a full week. I did a large amount of walking on Sat/Sun/Mon which probably helped to accelerate the process.
Really pleased with how comfortable they've become in such a short amount of time.
-
The thighs still measure 10.7" the same as the IH site. But then, I have incredibly weedy legs, so I wasn't expecting the thighs to stretch.
They aren't skin tight and I imagine that they will stretch if needed.
-
It's been a almost a month since I got these, so time for a few more pics. Unfortunately the lighting is quite poor and it's actually not my fault for once :). Going to post them anyway, because anything is better than confronting the fact that I need to actually start packing stuff up…
-
Awesome how fast these fade. And beautiful too.
-
I was surprised, because I don't exactly lead an active life… Although I have been wearing them as often as I physically can. And doing a lot of walking recently...
Managed to get a couple of better full length shots:
And the evo created by the belt:

Nice MP!
The sunlight really brought out how hairy this denim is. Couldn't hep but snap a pic.
-
Wore my 25oz Devil's earlier today… Couldn't get over just how baggy they felt. Straight back into the Lefty Devil's for the rest of the day.
I'm liking how they're looking so far. I hope they'll continue to evolve the same as they have started.
Need to find a job that'll let me wear denim

Thanks for all your photos MPenguin . Seriously considering these jeans as my
last IH purchase ( I can just about hear the laughter from all forum members and Giles's laugh - beimg
the loudest ! ) .Cheers

No problem, there may be a few more over the Xmas break. Decided I'll wear these into the new year. I wasn't aware that there is something called a last IH purchase though? Or do you mean last as in: "this is the last thing I bought this month"?
