IH-666S-SBG - 21oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Cut Jeans - SBG
-
Yessss! Does the 21oz SBG stretch about the same amount as indigo 21oz? I've got pairs of regular and overdyed 21oz that are quite soft and have a good bit of give to them. Figure I should aim for my usual waist measurement in these but thought I'd double check.

The SBG will stretch, but it takes a bit more effort. Something about the sulphur dying seems to make them a bit tougher in that department. You'll end up in the same ballpark, but just like the OD stretches easier than the 21oz, this is a little harder than both.

Thanks, @neph93 ! I had noticed that black denim seems to be a little less forgiving, and the ODs are indeed the most. Pretty fascinating how something seemingly as small as the dye can make all that difference.
@giles have you tried these on yet? Curious what size you’d get — you’re usually my best ref for waist size. I’m torn btw 34 and 35.

Makes sense, no worries — thank you!

Boom, got some. V psyched.

I know it says little to no shrinkage expected, but who's given the 21oz SBG a very hot wash?
After wearing these a few days I realize I should've gone a size down, but too late. They're not bad as is, but I wouldn't mind them shrinking up a little bit if it's possible.
-
Ahhh yeah I've noticed that's pretty easy with black denim in general. Thanks for the reminder, been a while since I've washed a pair.
-
Cool!
Yeah I'm wearing em again today and they're really not too loose. I'll prob just wear em for 6 mos and first wash will be maybe warmer than I normally do, just to maybe tighten them up a wee bit more than a cold wash.

Great fit Thomas!! Looks great with the CPO, too.

I totally agree! If I’m wearing a “denim” shirt, it’s usually SBG or OD jeans to round it out

Is IH-666S-SBG essentially the 666 version of the 777 BS69xSOP420?
On the fence about which one to get…..
