IH-555-XHSBB - 25oz Selvedge Denim Super-Slim Cut Jeans - Black/Black
-
The sizing is what's keeping my from pulling the trigger on these again. When I first bought them they couldn't find anything below a measured 39in, and I'm right about 38in. I'd imagine that 25oz high rise bunched up at the waist with a belt is quite uncomfortable even if there is some shrinkage.
-
The other aspect which may or may not be of importance to you is that they’re bigger in the butt, thighs and knees than traditional 21OZ 555s. I have the IH diaper butt, the thighs and knees are baggy as well,but I don’t care because they’re super comfortable when I’m riding or wearing them in general. Maybe the 777s will be a better option for you.
-
Yeah I've been waiting to see the 777 measurements, maybe even the 666.

I thought I've read about marbling on these forums….It could also just be me overthinking this because I'm spending 450$ on a pair of jeans.
Putting jeans in together is only likely to increase marbling. More chance for a session and uneven distribution of water.
Marbling is super easy to avoid. Just wet your jeans thoroughly before you put them in the wash and wash on no or low spin.
You may well be overthinking…

These are definitely roomier than the 555xhs-ib. Could and would probably size one down but I'm already at the bottom of the bell curve. Hot soaked with agitation followed by 4 weeks of wear. Early signs of fading have started to appear.

The stack fades are gonna be unreal with those
-
@peregrine looks good . The contrast is pretty obvious for only 4 week wear !! May result high contrasts if you keep wearing for the next 12 months.

Thanks Graham for all your assistance!

I'm pretty sure on a normal day, my waist varies plus or minus 1". Some times my jeans are a tad loose, sometimes perfect, sometimes a tad tight. That is the nature of the beast…
With ya. Sometimes i button the top button; sometimes i dont.

Or cant… lol

Did have a question for these. Will they have the same vertical line fading as indigo 25oz?
