IH-666S-18 - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
**I think these will be really great for riding during the warmer months,**and be pretty easy to wear chaps over when it’s chilly in the AM. Also the cut with a little extra thigh and knee room will be more comfortable sitting on the bike for long periods of time. The denim on the 177 feels more substantial,tougher for lack of a better word. They’re very close in color. When cuffed and worn with Wescos,you get that 50s biker kind of look. My question is.-If I were to get the 18OZ raw denim and wash them at home would it ever actually be the same as the factory one wash?
One of the many great things about this denim is how breathable it is for 18oz. I wore mine more during the summer here in Phoenix more than I did my 14oz.

The Denim BEYOND amanzing. The color, the flexibility, the texture, and the way it molds is pure awesomeness.

any plans of a 777 in this denim?

I wouldn't be upset about that ^^^^

No plans as yet…..
Maybe it's time to make some haha no worries, my lately evolved love for that cut makes me thinking about what denim should be my next… 777N would be an option too but the 18oz vintage fades are absolute stunners!

Hi Guys
A quick question and fit check please. Just got these in size 33, and the waist is perfect - fitting but not too tight. The top block though, especially the thighs, is quite snug/tight. Maybe due to the crunchiness of the denim.
Any idea how much stretch the 18oz denim gives?
-
You’ll get a bit of stretch in the thighs but not a ton. The fit looks fine to me, but the lighting in the pic isn’t great so I can’t tell just how tight the thighs are for sure. Maybe take some pics outside in the sun?

Same here, I had perfect waist so I used a belt, hence there was hardly any waist stretch. However my thighs were quite snug and have seen .5 inch stretch exactly and now its quite relaxed.
If you are looking for over .5 inches stretch, you need to return. But.5 is easy in one week of wear.
(I never posted my pics here, will today soon)

My Out of Box measurements W34:
Waist : 34.4
Rise : 10.8
Hip : 21.7
Thigh : 12.2
Knee : 8.9
Hem : 8.2Measurements after 2 months wear, 2-3 wears in a week along with other pants in rotation. Gently warm/hot hand soaked 3-4 times so far :
Waist :35.5
Rise : 10.8
Hip : 22.4
Thigh: 12.6
Knee: 8.9
Hem : 8.2From your fit pics, the pair looks too tight and uncomfortable as per my taste, but its your call that really matters. I would usually choose a pair that is not too uncomfortable even to start with. You can expect .5 inch stretch in the thigh and a little more in the hips.
Here are some fit pics after 2 months of reasonable use in rotation with other pairs. I cant wait to machine wash this pair. I usually wait for a few months for the creases to set in before a machine wash to clean up all the starch and enjoy the smoothness.
Btw, this pair is very breathable, not too bad for summers at all.

That’s a great fit @gautamkrisna
