IH-888-XHSMB - 25oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut - Mad Black

[AdamC]

As @AdamJ said, they feel softer from the off than the XHS or XHSib.  I didn't want to take them off!

I just get more and more stoked on these. Can’t wait.

Strangely intrigued by these, just never been a black jeans guy but these are certainly tempting me…

I currently have two wearable pairs and that really is enough as they do not get anywhere near as much leg time as they deserve. It won't stop me from picking these up when they come back around. For once my will power lasted longer than the stock…

That's just it man, I am really trying to focus on one or two pair at a time these days…

Celebrate those WP wins as well Sir!!!

Yeah… it feels a bit like quitting smoking or stopping ahem "others things". One day at a time and any sense of achievement is eradicated by the sense of loss and emptiness

I think everyone needs one pair of black jeans. Maybe it's OD, maybe it's SBG, maybe it's BB, but black goes with practically everything and stands out in a sea of blue.

And maybe it's just me but while I see great blue denim fades regularly, a well-faded pair of black jeans with pops of grey really catches my attention.

No doubt about that. As stated I have two which renders a third pair really unnecessary, sadly.

Called it the Devil wears black jeans….

Yeah, that was more for Z.  You've been around long enough, R. I trust that you have a rainbow of denim by this point

I do love a good metaphor and that is a bloody great one.

Congrats to those who have picked up a pair of MBMF’s!!!!

@Giles:

@Kasi:

Maybe this Mad black 25oz will open the door for the other fits to come in the near future

If these sell well, we will do other cuts in 25oz MBMF.

EVERYONE pick up a pair!!!! We need more cuts!

[sabergirl]

It seems to me like these sold pretty well. Although there were only a few pairs to begin with, so…

A comparison between the 888XHSMB, 888SBG, and 888SOD:

Ready to get indigo all over these

Whoops!  Good catch.  Fixed!

It's really hard to properly capture the black on these…that's why I put a picture comparing it to two others.  It's definitely the darkest of the bunch.

And one last one to prove it's really dark (check it out vs the 9527j):
