IH-777S-21 - Super-Slim Tapered 21oz Indigo Selvedge Jean - VERSION 1

[bertoni]

@madmonday:

@bertoni the rise on the 555 isn't high, it's a mid rise as far as I can tell & what does the jeans being pulled up high have to do with a blow-out? u sound about as craqzy as me right now, hahahaha

Not crazy, but saggy balled maybe?! I dunno, compared to my 634S worn in the same place on my hips, the 555 hangs uncomfortably low in the crotch area. Maybe it's more obvious because they're more fitted in the top block, but the stress on the crotch area is gonna cause problems in the long run and I don't want to have to send the fuckers off for repairs every ten minutes

[madmonday]

seen all my repairs on my 555 02  . . . so u might have a point . . .or it just might be the way some of us are built, walk, & move around.  I repair jeans in the inner thighs & knees all the damn time regardless of the cut just because of how I'm built & the amount of time I spend crawling around asking for forgiveness, hahahaha

either way I'm watching to see which pair you go with

Definitely agree with the crotch issues. I think the thickness in fabric makes the rubs worse as well. I always get crotch blowout but I think the more extra fabric you have down there likely adds to the problem.

I'm excited for this new run. I grew out of my 21oz Beatle Busters (they were always a bit too tight), but despite them being my favorite pair of denim I always felt like the rise was a little high for me, and they weren't tapered enough after having them hemmed.

I think these will be a jackpot

The new ones are here and yes indeed they are more to the sizing I had originally envisaged.  So the last 5 pairs of "version 1" are on special at USD235 - that's USD100 discount

The new version of these jeans can be found here

Quick (maybe redundant?) question: how much stretch can one squeeze out of the thigh-measurements (if necessary)?

[Giles]

1/2 inch in circumference….

[Dion]

Thanks, that's even more than I can wish for…

[Dion]

Hmmm, it's my best fitting IH-jeans out of the box. I'm pretty happy but also a bit saddish that this cut won't be continued in its first edition… it's an awesome mix between 555 and 666.

[Dion]

…but sold very well though ;).

[Giles]

Too similar to 555 and not what I had envisaged…...

[Dion]

Spam gone ;).

@Black:

@Kathrynnaomi, along my denim journey I learned the difference between tag size and actual size, raw and one wash, sanforized and unsanforized etc, this also gave me an awareness of my own actual waist and how it changes for different rises. As each IH pair of jeans is cut slightly differently, I went straight to the sizing guide for the IH-777's and chose the ideal fit for me. My suggestion is to correlate your exact measured waist size at the height of the rise and don't worry about the " give " in the denim (sanforized only) …Hope that makes a little sense, it's a little more complicated than the usual 8,10,12,14 etc that we are used too 
Perhaps you have your 777s already?

This is VERY good advice!!!

I might shed a tear, this may be the beginning of crotch blowout [emoji22]

Nothing to be sad about. That is part of the game. At this point anyone can reinforce that  that has a bare modicum of sewing skill.

Nice looking pair of jeans.

Thanks guys! I may take them to Self Edge PDX since they’re close by. In the mean time, it may be time to finally get my 555-01 pair into rotation.
