@CosmoSix5 Thanks, that looks great! Does she taper them from the inside or the outside seam?

[CosmoSix5]

@V-P the pair in the pic she did the selvedge/outside. So she didn't cut the fabric. I asked for the inseam to be cut this time.

has anyone done a cut inspired by the 1873's or 1880 Nevadas?

Is sleep fading a real thing?

That's so cool! I'll do that until my wife tells me to sleep in tent :).

Probably not, but some of us are obsessed enough with our denim that we sleep in it. Moreso because we just love to wear it 24/7, not so much that we expect any real difference in fading. With that said, I do wear my overdyed UHFs to bed and they look more worn than they would had I left them on a hanger in my closet. So, no, but maybe, probably not but something may happen.

I feel like, outside of the fading potential, sleeping in our denim speeds up how quickly it molds and shapes to our body....as well as softens the denim faster. I've also noticed a much more rapid amount of drool build up on my right sleeves.

Is there a certain day of the week the forum calendar gets updated for restocks, launches, etc, or is it just random? Also, is it usually just projecting out 10 days give or take when it does update?

[seawolf]

@wjw it’s totally random. Restocks happen when they happen.

[wjw]

@seawolf I knew that the restocking itself was "random", but I was curious if the frequency of the calendar updating was random as well

[seawolf]

@wjw which calendar are you referring to?

[wjw]

@seawolf the one on the forum

[seawolf]

@wjw are you talking about the release schedule?

[wjw]

@seawolf on my phone when you hit the menu on the top left and then click calendar. Not sure if that is also called the release schedule.

[Giles]

Random. We update stuff when we have something to update.

Is there any possibility that there will be a re-run of ISH-170?

[Graham]

@Bill-C I am sorry but no possibility at this time.

It feels like I've been searching for the perfect pair of jeans for decades (actually, I'm 53 so I probably have). I recently bought my first pair of IH: the 666 in 25oz size 33, and it was instant love. They fit and hang beautifully. Incredible craftsmanship etc. I think I'll wear this cut for life. But I also wanted a pair just a bit less heavy, so bought a pair of 666 in 21oz, overdyed. They are also absolutely gorgeous, but the fit is really quite different. They are the same size as my 25oz (33) but are slimmer throughout the leg. (BTW I hot soaked the 25oz but not these, as they already seemed quite a lot slimmer).

Long story short, I'm going to sell on the overdyed 666s (I wore them half a dozen times before deciding against them, so can't return), but still would like to get a pair in 21oz. So, if I buy the 666 21oz in the standard indigo (IH-666S-21) will the cut be more like my beloved 25oz, or slimmer like the overdyed?

If this is the wrong place for this question please let me know! Thanks everyone.
