Pretty sure he was trying to buy local, not online.

But I got no idea what he might be local to, m'dear.

No worries, to be honest I'd forgotten I'd replied a few posts back already.

@Streetwise:

Seen these?

When it comes to clothes, I avoid getting them online. I prefer to visit a showroom near by, try them on!

[Streetwise Hercules]

You're welcome and I still don't know where you live.

[the246guy]

I live in the west of Germany!

So for how long will this denim be available? I have limited myself to one denim this year and since I have already got the Japan Blue, I will refrain from purchasing any more denim for this year. I would get this denim probably next year! Will this model be still available next year? The availability on this says Extant, so I guess it will be around for a couple more years! Is it so?

[Chris]

The 21 oz denim is Iron Heart's best seller, and the 666 is the second best selling model.  So it's going to be around for a long time, don't worry.

I could not resist. I took the plunge and ordered the 21 oZ! Waiting for it to be delivered and I'm super excited!

If you think you're excited now,just wait till you put those bad boys on.

Should I take this positively? Is this some warning to me that I should return them?

[Chris]

Take it positively.  That's how it was intended.

if you are excited at buying them, you will be even more excited at wearing them.

english is not that hard 

[A Former User]

excellent purchase!

please keep us posted with your evolution 

[Jett129]

Thanks @adam313 and @Chris for backing me up. Exactly what I meant.

The 21oz denim is pretty incredible. You'll be glad you got these.

[the246guy]

Any suggestions on how to get the best evolution on this denim? How long should I wear it before I soak or wash so that I get the best evolution possible|?

[Streetwise Hercules]

Just wear them and wash them when they need it.

^All of this.

Also it's sanforised so don't worry about soaks. The 21oz is kind of stubborn to start with but fades uniquely and beautifully. God I miss having some in rotation.

I got the denim delivered today and my first impressions are "Wow" This denim is awesome! It is very soft compared to my 555N. I got size W31 and I have the feeling that the thigh area is a bit tighter on this guy. Will this stretch a bit on the thigh? I would be happy if it does! The waist seems to be spot on!

[neph93]

The whole top block of the 666 is smaller than the 555 so it's to be expected that you find them a little tight in comparison. The 21oz is quite forgiving.  It will certainly relax after 10 or so wears.
