@Black:

^ those are looking great

They really are. I'm finding mine to be very stubborn. Great denim though.

Slow but steady.

Yesterday I got a mail from Japan, but I have some doubts.
On every picture label is made of canvas and stitched to rear pocket.
But here is a glossy paper, like on 19 or 21oz pair.
Is it okay?

[neph93]

Could be a new flasher. Looks legit. Do you have pics of the jeans (selvedge ID, arctuates, leather patch)?

Of course you could just order from here…

[Dion]

It is the new flasher, it's legit.

Snagged a used pair with a longer inseam. Works much better with boots IMHO

Better too long than too short.

I agree. I gratefully was able to get a pair this summer from a generous forum member, thinking a 31" inseam was perfect for converse, and they were, but with boots they looked weird, and I wear boots 99% of the time in fall and winter. Luckily these appear to be unhemmed (old model) as they measured 35" after a wash. I did some quick crotch reinforcement, but Im sure after this winter i'll need to send them off for repairs, so when I do, Indigo proof can probably hem these to 33" like I usually do.

Phew.
Finally, made it through the whole 241-page thread.
Now I feel ready to make a soak and start breaking this beauty.

Mine are officially out of hibernation. After temps being in the 80's earlier this week and dropping to a high in the low 60's yesterday and today, I jumped straight from my 14oz 666's to my 25oz 666's. It's a rather eye-opening experience.

It's obviously up to you, but why are you soaking?

Fit is a little bit looser than I expected, trying to shrink it a little.

There isn't much to be had, but they'll tighten up a little.
