IH-666S-SBG - 21oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Cut Jeans - SBG

[Mizmazzle]

The struggle is real!! My XHS are my 98% of the time pair. But the SBG are on deck…come June they will get the full throttling they deserve!!

Anyone have any good sizing advice for these? do they shrink/stretch? I thought I was a 34, but comparing the size chart to the Oni's 622 I've been wearing is making me consider a 33 (and I found a 33 in stock). Am I going to regret the 33?

[Mizmazzle]

@gusg trust the measurement my man! Get em a bit snugger in the waist than your favorite older jeans. They will stretch some with wear.

I just got a new pair of these 666 SBGs in the mail today! All my jeans sit right at about 33” waist measurement. These new ones are 32.5” but I know they will stretch from .5 up to about a full inch with wear. My body seems to hit the 33” mark and holds there.

@T4920 hey brother! Curious about any shrinkage when you washed your SBGs?? Looks like you cuff so it may not matter to you, so much. I had mine hemmed about .5” longer than preferred length. Figure I should warm soak/ wash before starting the journey. But also don’t want to go overboard if you saw noticiable shrink.

[T4920]

@Mizmazzle I've washed twice at 30c. One with no spin, the second with low spin. They tightened up a little throughout, and maybe lost half an inch in the inseam? If you flick back a bit you can see them fresh out of the back, I was a little concerned about the length at the time, as I'm not a fan of stacking, but now I consider them perfect in every way.

[Mizmazzle]

@T4920 thanks man! My waist is perfectly snug now and they haven’t been worn yet. So looks like I may be looking at quite snug after a wash haha. Think I’ll keep it to a cold wash and go from there. Muchas gracias for the deets!

[T4920]

@Mizmazzle be extra cautious with the wash, you'll see lots of instances of marbling in this thread, mine included..

As the conventional wisdom goes, turn inside out, soak, wash on low heat/cold with no spin, hang dry and keep them inside out until fully dry.

99% sure you know this already but wouldn't wanna risk not telling you!

Personally I wouldn't wash them to begin with, they'll soften up super fast and you might struggle to to get fade contrast (assuming that's the look you're going for ofc) if you don't make the most of the initial crispiness.

[Mizmazzle]

@T4920 thanks for the tips! I’ll take all the help I can get. Guess I was thinking of washing early so as to avoid whiskers shifting on the back of the legs later. Perhaps you didn’t experience this??

@Mizmazzle Sanforized and one washed - little to no shrinkage to be expected from the product description. It shouldn’t be a problem.

[T4920]

@Mizmazzle never had that with any jeans in my 15 odd years in the game. I've only heard people discussing this is as a potential issue for unsanforized/raw denim like the UHR.

[Mizmazzle]

Boom!! @goosehd @T4920 i shall move forward confidently!! Thanks gents!!

Any restock on these in the near future?

[Daniel San]

I think someone said that sbg is in production restock late summer

[AdamJ]

@Daniel-San @kelton correct, late summer

[Mizmazzle]

Snagged the last pair of these beauties from Snake Oil Provisions a couple months ago. Been holding onto them until until I leave for Italy in June for my wedding. Just got this belt from @seawolf from Zeebee Leather to keep it all together nicely!! Thanks a ton Zach. Now the real question, how the hell do I wait until June to start rocking these!

[A Former User]

@Mizmazzle great catch

[Jcaz6996]

@Mizmazzle Fresh enjoy great Denim.

[seawolf]

Dope! Thanks for the kind words, Mark! In my experience, the SBG doesn't fade very quickly, so I think you can get away with wearing them a little before your trip to get them broken in a little.

[Mizmazzle]

Well, didn’t take long for me to cave and take these bad motherfuckers out for a spin to the local bar to watch the Nuggets smash the Suns. Think they may be good luck…or perhaps I’ve sold my soul to the devil’s cut!! Either way, don’t think I’ll be taking these off for a very long time.
