IH-634-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo/Black
-
I did a 48 hour stint in my XHS enough to get them somewhat comfy. It's interesting to me how the crease patterns are almost identical to my lefties. Now that I got the XHS broken in I've reverted to wearing them by day and the 19L as my PJs.
-
I wanted to post even an unremarkable pic here so I can see how long I've been wearing these like a year from now. I put about 5 miles walking on them today. I have under 10 wears on them so far.
-
I'm starting to get some noticable fades on my XHSib. In a relatively short period of time. My uncle gave me a couple generic Ambien pills so sleeping in them has been fantastic. It's been really cold here and my house is poorly insulated so they are really toasty and snuggly to sleep in.
-
Been wearing them non-stop around the clock since my last post. I think they are ready for a soak. They're getting pretty dirty.
-
Looks very nice! Curious how they look after the soak
-
Check back tomorrow friend
Tepid water and about a tablespoon of laundry sanitizer…. For a 40 minute soak. I ran the sweeper attachment on them to get a lot of the dirt/dust off them first.
-
I’ll be back

My two biggest fans

@Heavy_blue I tried to get you a couple pictures but the sun isn't having it today…
But they more or less look the same.
This is with a bright flashlight

@Filthy thanks for taking the time to post honeycombs are setteling! Nice to see! Keep smashing them
-
I am relieved they didn't shift at all. Because usually my previous experience is that they did no matter what. But I seems to have gotten out all of the shrinkage with my brutal soaking and drying routine-from the onset without having to put them in the washer and dryer, preserving the crispness of the denim and the pristineness of the patch. They aren't clean, but they don't smell. I don't mind dirt from the Earth, just dirt from other animals and people really grosses me out.

@Filthy love the start of the electric blue(s) awesome!
-
Me too. This is why I wanted my last pair of IH for probably a long time to be this particular denim. It is super-duper
-
Yeah good choice there! I have the 21ib… in need of a xhs pair
-
Much like self doubt, the indigo blue fades begin to creep through

@Filthy:
Off to a good start! How many wears?

Nice honeycombs @Filthy

@stingraygun about 7 weeks wears. Don't really keep track. Sometimes I wear them around the clock 4-5 days. Now I pretty much wear another pair 25 xhs black 888 at work and then these are pajamas now.
@Heavy_blue thanks man

Would you guys recommend a 21 oz 634 or 25 oz indigo 634? Currently have a pair of 634S-B but I want to get an indigo pair aswell
