IH-888-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Ind/blk

So the bottom button came loose(as I never unbutton it really) and took me near 10 min to get it back in. Doesn't help my right hand is really bad due to winter weather so makes the job actually painful.

@Jordonf9:

I'll prob wash mine in 2-3 weeks. With the kids food droppings and the road grim on my car rubbing on the denim, will need to wash em earlier then normal. I almost never wash my denim, haha.

And when you do wash these denims, what will you use for soap? Dr. Bronners? Only water? Soap nuts?

I love checking in on the progress thanks for sharing guys! I'm hoping I get lucky and they decide to re-stock the 34's one day.

[neph93]

@CMastri have you checked the other stockists? These are not made for the Japanese market so there aren't any there and they won't be remade so a restock simply won't happen I'm afraid. The only way any will come back in is if a W34 is returned (highly unlikely at this point) or if IHUK buys back stock from these stockists (also unlikely/unusual).

@Giles now you mention it I remember you saying there was enough denim for a couple of hundred somethings… but the jury was out on the cut(s). Any decisions?

[CMastri]

@neph93

Thank you for the input! I appreciate it.

P.S. I just did my first soak on my 888S-OD "2-3 weeks in", I'll try and share some fit pics tonight.

@Giles

I'll 100% promise at least one pair if not two purchased if you do select the 888 as the cut for this beautiful fabric  8).

634 please! with all the good details - lined rear pockets, tucked belt loops, selvedge fly, deeper front pocket bags

[Jett129]

I'm not a 634 guy,but I can't help but think that 634s would be really cool in this denim.

I am a 634 guy  and yes a 634S-XHSib would be on my list

^ nice start

I am pretty amazed by how soft and comfortable they are now and how well they fit me. I have to slightly exhale when I button them. But they are just right.

[Jordonf9]

Glad you are enjoying them filthy. This is a truly awesome denim. Mine have grown to fit like a glove now and are super soft. The buttons are a breeze now, after about 2 weeks of pain ha

[tvenuto]

I certainly wouldn’t call mine soft, they definitely still have some crunch to them. So much so that I think the first wash will be in a bathtub. But they are comfortable now, and I can see how these will be like butter in about a year.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

When I say soft, I am speaking more to the surface of the denim when you stroke your hand over it. The hand. They feel like the finest silk, but are no means dainty. Mine seem to defy gravity.

[Jordonf9]

I'd consider mine soft all around. I have worn these every day since received and put them through some stretching play times with the kid.
