IH-666S-18 - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

Might be hard for me to,accurately,compare 2 different denims across 2 different garments. Obviously the basic similarity is the weight.

I do like the OG 18 oz. It’s classic Haraki-san with its even, uniform surface. It fades very nicely too. But the Vintage style is much more fun. Fuzzy, crunchy and spits out indigo like it’s allergic to the stuff. It’s like a lighter weight UHR.

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?

These landed this week and I soaked them and left them to dry before leaving town until last night.

This is a Hall of Fame denim. The 21 will always be special to me, but I love this slubby, hairy, rough, neppy denim and that it is stitched together in tank-like fashion. Perfect combination of denim with character, but also with durability. I've had some great denim in terms of one or the other, but this promises to kill it in both categories.

Kudos to Haraki-san for another masterpiece.

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.

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?
