IH-666S - The Devil's Fit Indigo - Slim Tapered
-
Belated kudos to Oleg's fit ^^^^, just great, real snug. That's how 666s should be worn, at least in my "book".

plainview / ih666s / daedalus

They will stretch s bit too after soak so keep that in kind if you prefer to keep a tight fit in the top box area

Fufu be sure to measure your favorite jeans "the Iron Heart way" - maybe you already did - just to be sure you are truly a 30". If you are a true 30, it sounds like the 29 (=31) would work well for you in this denim. The only other caution is, check the thigh measurement - if you are a bicycle rider or weight lifter or just have muscular legs, these tend to be very fitted in the thigh and that could be a reason to consider sizing up 1".
-
My experience is they shrink up to 1/4-1/2" max, and don't stretch back much - so be cautious when you make your selection… Measure some jeans you like "the IH way" - and measure around your thigh too just to be sure. If you try to cut it too close you might be disappointed. Or if you have muscular/big thighs this may not be the best cut for you.

Spent an hour and a half at DC4 today and ended up getting a pair. I really, really like the fit which is surprisingly not as slim as I had thought (a good thing in this case). Went with my 634s size (36" waist) Gonna give them a soak when I get back home and hope that they'll work out perfect. Everything else will be no problem, but I'm a bit worried about the thighs - anyhow I'm quite sure they'll end up just fine (if they stretch back to a tad under or presoak width they'll be perfect). Had no problems whatsoever with the 634s:s but I guess these will give me that proper IH break-in period
I was initially going to get another pair of the 634s from Hachioji but now I can have the best of both worlds I guess If these need a hemming I'll get it done at IHHQ

Crotch seam starting to get loose should i get this repaired now or not to worry till it gets a lot worse? -
Haha, used my mom's washing machine and did a 40-degree wash without a spinning cycle to get the most of the shrink out. Blue hands and a huge smile - these will turn out great! I'll get them hemmed at DC4 before we go back home I got about an inch off in the waist and two in length, the thighs are a-ok.
