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

75 wears, 75 to go. No washes / soaks.

Thank you for the great advice!
I worked with the team and came up with what could be the best plan given the approximate nature of the shrinking that can happen after a wash.
The jeans arrived yesterday. 25oz is no joke, I think a description I read of “wearing armor” is a great analogy to what they feel like.
After a hot soak/wash and a drip dry the jeans landed exactly where Graham approximated they would. I am so happy with the whole process, amazing customer service experience from beginning to end as well as a very high quality product.
Let the journey begin!

I was going through airport security with my 25s on today and they said the “scanner couldn’t penetrate the crotch material of my pants” - needless to say I got a frisk up and left a bit disheveled. Just an FYi.
90 wears. Hoping for 150.

@indigostiff Very common occurrence and I think some of us have worn them just for the extra attention
-
@indigostiff That happened to me last summer when I wore 21 oz IHs through the airport. Was a bit surprised by that.

Hi guys I’m new here and looking to buy my first pair of 25oz 666s. Couple questions: 1. does soaking the jeans prevent indigo transfer? I have some light coloured furniture and I’ll be in some trouble if the indigo streaks onto the furniture. 2. Regarding honeycombing, how much allowance should I give for that when considering hemming? Thanks a lot !

It may a little but it will not nullify it, wear and washes will do, but that doesnt help your furniture in the short term, sorry

0.5", plus the shrinkage quoted on the product page

@indigostiff Happened to me leaving Gainesville last month. Got felt up all over my dang 25s by a stout redhead...while making eye contact.
edit: just noticed your post I was replying to was not from today. Either way, it happened and my empathy for you man.

@Alex thanks for the quick reply.

Is sizing chart expected to have no change?
