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

@Giles:

That is n issue we see occasionally with the 25oz.  The yarn is so wide that the button hole stitch perfectly goes over just one yarn (not a good thing).  We are working out how to alter the button holer.  What has happened to yours is not good, let me chat to Haraki. I did send him an email after you original PM, but did not get a reply, I think he is run ragged getting ready for Bread and Butter.  I have hassled him again….G

Was this button hole question ever fixed?

[Giles]

Ongoing improvements…...

Just picked up a pair I had ordered. Let the stretching begin! How much do y'all think the top block will stretch? I can barley button them. I almost need pliers.

[Giles]

If you can button them up, they're good to go…...

[Seul]

If the thighs aren't too tight and you can button them up after a bit of a struggle, then you're all set.

Thanks G and Seul! I don't plan on taking them off anytime soon. lol!

[Seul]

Good lad!.. Enjoy the ride!..

After a month of working a second job in them, mine needed another wash to get rid of the oil they had picked up.

With countless hours of drinking and surfing the forum I have taken the plunge and have a pair of 666xhs on route. After much deliberation I decided to size up on these beasts, mainly due to thigh measurements, hopefully I made the right choice, I'll find out in a few days …

Otherwise known as "The Seul Approach"…

[jdl1279]

I have owned these exactly one year today, with about 6 months worth of daily wear on them.

Your approach is what has worked for me. Good call leaving the jeggings to the choirboys.

Looking good, jdl!..

[jdl1279]

Thanks Eli, they're getting there quicker now that I've been working in them. The combs are more electric than what comes through in the pics though. Given that yours pushed me over the edge on these the compliment is greatly appreciated!

Seul,  I like your approach and plan to use it more often.

Thanks Bob, my logic was that for me, better to be able to shrink a bit or wear a little loose than squeeze into them. Looking forward to starting the journey in these, they've made it across the big pond and hit customs in Los Angeles … fingers crossed they continue on to me smoothly.
