IH-666-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

Hiking trip with my devils on Pulpit Rock (preikestolen) in Norway. About an hour and a half walk up pretty steep ground… Kind of regretted wearing the jeans, but worth it when I got to the top

Man after my own heart. Sick photo!

Sick motherfucker - I need to lay down now…

Hehe, thanks guys

I really love these jeans.. they fade slow, this is about a month and a half..
But I mostly use a uniform at work, so these jeans are going to last really long..

Just bought these!
Stoked to see them in the flesh…or cotton... or whatever

[Seul]

Very good choice

So long as you don't mind everything you touch with them turning blue for the next few months, you'll be fine

[JamesMarg]

I'm looking forward to it!
Not really, but if it is a part of having some awesome jeans i will definitely see it through.

Ive had one initial soak, and I havent noticed the jeans coloring anything.. I even slept in them once, on white sheets… could see any blue on them the day after!

I read a lot of different theories, but I want my jeans to remain intact as long as possible, should i soak them every other month?

So I finally got these as a present from my girl (thanks babes!)

I went with a size 33, but I think they are too large.  Should have gone with a size 32 instead.  I can wear them and length wise and everything else is good, just the waist is a tad too large.  I can probably pull them an inch from my waist.  Wondering if I should just soak them in really hot water to get them to shrink (will that even work?) or just return them for another pair.  Its a hassle though, cause she ordered them from Japan and the shop is out of 32s…

The denim is amazing though. I'm half tempted to keep them and just go with it....

Decisions, decisions, decisions...

[ropeadope]

My pair stretched a little more than 1 inch, with a couple of months wear, and if you hotsoak them, they will probably stretch out again..
I would recommend that you get it in size 32.. Its lame to wait, but its better they fit proper!

[JamesMarg]

Just got these….
All i can say is
1. Wow
2. How the hell am i going to survive these!?!?
3. They are so dark
4. WOW
5. My fingers hurt so much from buttoning these!

Your average reaction to the 25 oz denim indeed… "It's going to kill me" followed by "If it bleeds, I can kill it..."

[JamesMarg]

Surprisingly my fingers aren't blue at all!

[Giles]

His language on other hand…...

[JamesMarg]

Whose language is blue G!?

[Seul]

[JamesMarg]

I'm getting pretty bad pinching just below my ass whenever i walk in these…
God damn, it gets the same spot every time as well.

Anyone else experience this?

It's been so long… I do remember having a few slivers grated off my pelvis for a few weeks. Can't recall any discomfort round the back, as it were.
