IH-666-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

[seamill]

@jdl1279:

@seamill no expert, but would assume the hot soak 33 would stretch for you, but know the 32 will stretch as well. Either way, you'd be going through a pretty uncomfortable period. This denim is worth the pain though. My hips were bruised for a couple weeks breaking mine in, totally worth it for what's become my favorite jeans ever.

Side note, despite working in them and getting quite dirty. I have resolved not to wash again until I hang them up for the season. I am at a stage where indigo loss is at a peak and can't bear messing up the beauty marks coming through

Thanks! I went through with the trade so am hoping they'll stretch enough. I'm in Seattle so I'm gonna pop on over to Blue Owl to see if Jay can handle hemming 25oz

Best of luck, certainly worth the effort

Attempting to stay awake at the library with my daughter. At least I can pass the time she's spending on the computer here with 25 oz porn…dirty dirty denim

Large restock….

@Haddtoo 555  I'm seriously impressed! Those instantly have a place on my "would love to own them" list. You must have worn them very hard for years?

[jdl1279]

In the midst of a minor blizzard, so lighting is not the best. However thought I would share some of the highlights of my pair. I really do love this denim, the fit, and character they are developing.

Will take some proper fit shots when snowmaggedon is over. Given it's Valentine's Day though, I had to share my true denim love

Me first Iron Heart! W 29. Great fit and quality! Gonna get it soak and hemmed. Too long for me.

Congrats and enjoy them! They become difficult to take off after you bond with them a bit

Since I rarely see larger guys in these threads, I decided to pick up some of these in a size 40. I have the IH-634S in a tag size 44 that were cut small, actually 42 actual size, and the fit is nice but I wanted a slimmer fit. Big guy in a slim jean!? Yeah… I know. They came in today and I had a hell of a time getting that top button, but I got it.

I think the denim looks great on you @tailoredfamcam

Way to have the guts to snap a picture and put it up here.  25 oz isn't my favorite IH denim, but it wears really well & looks great. Imho slimmer denim makes  me look slimmer than straight  cuts

For the record I'm 5 foot 8 inches and go between 210 & 220.

Oh & your sleeves, boots & belt look good as well.

I think u in the right place

[davito]

Yeah @tailoredfamcam what mm said looks good. Enjoy your jeans

[Haddtoo 555]

A couple weeks on the job…after repairs

[501IH]

Cool, Haddtoo! You have the right kind of job for rocking denim hard. The likes of me who work at desks can only capitulate… :-\

[jdl1279]

And I thought mine were developing a patina!!!

Very nice Haddtoo 555!

[Haddtoo 555]

@tailoredfamcam great fit great cut
@jdl1279 coming along fine!
@501/IH I've seen really cool desk jockey fades
@4c thanks

Just spotted the fade at the shirt line…these never see belt or a shirt tucked in...clean enough for a tub / hand wash.... Back to work they go

Last week shirt pairings

[jdl1279]

Would like to see the back of them if possible hadd

[PSB]

I haven't posted in quite some time, but I had to laugh today. I soaked my work pair of 666XHS last night and forgot how stiff these bastards get when they see water.
