IH-634S-21L-IND - 21oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Straight Cut – Indigo

Get them hemmed! That’s good reasoning and an acceptable solution to the two pair dilemma
-
Heard that bro
-
Go for it buddy. Its such a versatile pair. They drape beautifully because of their buttery like softness.
-
The only fundamental flaw i see with this plan is that if I wanted to get them hemmed I would need to wash them. And they are not ready to be washed yet. Unless I could bribe the person who's doing the hemming to accept them unwashed?
-
Respectfully, as a community, we need to get over this no-wash hysteria. Wash you jeans and hem them and then get on with life. No seamstress should ever be asked to handle the horrors of unwashed raw denim.
-
If you are concerned about shrinkage i can tell you that is negligible, at list in my case. And if you go cold water and hung dry you will get none. Now if you really wanna be safe, hem 0.5 inch to an inch lower than usual and you are straight. They look good with a small stuck cause they drape so nice and you can still rock a small cuff if you feel like it.
-
I wouldn't really call it hysteria. I just don't want to wash them yet. So I won't get them hemmed. Easy fix.
-
The easy fix was to get them hemmed so you could wear them without compromising your dedication to the 888’s. Not washing means not hemming. Not hemming means not wearing. 888’s win!
My dream of seeing Mike in perfectly hemmed jeans will have to wait longer now
-
My 888 XHS pair are hemmed
Except they are not due to arrive today it seems, neither is my phone. I really sincerely loathe FedEx. They always "guarantee" 2 day shipping, then they just mark shit as delivery attempted and deliver it when they feel like it.
So I won't be wearing the new jeans any time soon. Not until 3 or 4 weeks now probably. I need to leave my house around 4 to go to the next job and there's no time to wash them like I was planning now.
-
What the fucking fuck?!?
Gnashing my teeth for you Mike. You had that local job and all these things lined up perfectly. Arggggh!!
-
This ended up being a lot longer than I wanted. Next time I'll have to write a script.
Hopefully there's not as much compression as there is for me on shitty hotel wifi.

-
I just took a ho bath in the sink at the power plant and got changed in the back of a box truck so I can make it to self edge before they close…
Wearing these today.
-
Those are coming along nicely Mike..
-
Lots of tossing and turning while I sleep in them. Thanks!
-
Looking reeeaaallll good there, Mike
-
Thanks a lot pal
-
