IH-666S - The Devil's Fit Indigo - Slim Tapered

[richiealexander]

hello 666s user, i wanna ask a few questions
1. how about the maximum shrinkage for 666s in the inseam? (after initial soak)
2. in SE i saw that with 30 times wear, the jeans will stretch 1", is that true?
thanks!

[Giles]

1. 1" or so
2. In the waist, yes

it depends on what you do in your jeans. mine, took around 5 wears and the waist stretched from a tagged 33 measuring 33.5" to a 34" which have stayed this way ever since.  as for the inseam, i'd suggest you soak it first before hemming unless you're asking cos you're "yao ming" and needs way longer inseam then good luck on that.

They definitely stretch though you won't think they will when you're crowbarring yourself into them. As Giles says, about one inch of stretch.

I went true to tag size but for a super snug slimmer fit i could, as Davito did, have gone down one. That said i'd probably be officially a castrato if i had. TTS for me is spot on with a little room in the waist.

18 oz. denim is incredible stuff, can't wait to see the vulcans & the denim vault collabo in this denim with somewear to them

*hope the photos are now right side up & yeah mank i am getting very wide.  all that is slowing me down is making sure my XL/XXL aren't too small

[Finn666]

Looks like an old military Hummer, the civilian equivalent is the (no longer in production) H1.  Lots of small towns in the US have military equipment in the main square as part of some sort of veterans memorial.  I'm guessing that's where Monday is.

[mankarat]

Monday
Are you gaining weight?

[madmonday]

old hummer just decided a good place for my pictures (anything to toughen me up as the gear wasn't enough)

Crotch on my 666s. Less than 2 months wear. I don't cycle, but I do walk a lot. Hmm.

[Giles]

This is a function of the shape of your upper thigh, if your thighs rub together when you walk, this will happen.  Because heavy denim is thicker than lighter weight denim, the friction is increased.  It does not happen with me, but I know people who can do this within weeks.  It is not difficult to fix, but I suggest you do it sooner rather than later….

[zwer]

Gotcha. I haven't been having this problem with my lighter denim, but heavier weight = more friction makes sense.

I'll sort it out forthwith and maybe lay off the chocolates for a bit.
