@indigostiff That happened to me last summer when I wore 21 oz IHs through the airport. Was a bit surprised by that.

Hi guys I’m new here and looking to buy my first pair of 25oz 666s. Couple questions: 1. does soaking the jeans prevent indigo transfer? I have some light coloured furniture and I’ll be in some trouble if the indigo streaks onto the furniture. 2. Regarding honeycombing, how much allowance should I give for that when considering hemming? Thanks a lot !

It may a little but it will not nullify it, wear and washes will do, but that doesnt help your furniture in the short term, sorry

0.5", plus the shrinkage quoted on the product page

@indigostiff Happened to me leaving Gainesville last month. Got felt up all over my dang 25s by a stout redhead...while making eye contact.
edit: just noticed your post I was replying to was not from today. Either way, it happened and my empathy for you man.

@Alex thanks for the quick reply.

Is sizing chart expected to have no change?

@bluemantra no change

Back from hemming. Went pretty snug with these!
-
I thought these were going to be too snug, but after three days of wear they’ve stretched nicely. I think I went too short on the inseam though. Will the hem opening drape better with time? They look wide and short. If not may have to list these for sale.

@bluemantra it all comes down to personal preference. And yes the XHS will become softer and will drape a bit better then they do now but also will take a bit more length because of the honeycombs and when the fully set in. For me personally this would be to short cause i like a bit more length for multiple reasons. What does your gut say? Cause in the end you need to wear them.
