Maybe my favorite IH Jeans yet. Wearing only 1-2 a week due to other priorities in the rotation. But getting there.
Can‘t remember that I have ever enjoyed a jacket so much. Fit might be a bit loser than the classic slim fit style for Type 3’s. But I wanted to fit even the thickest sweater I own (of course IH) underneath.
Bit more than 2 months in. Some slight evo ongoing but all in all still kind of new. No break in required at all.
I completed 500 days of wear recently. I also added a comparison shot to my SEXIH22-301s which I wore for 1000 days to see where I need to get.
The 25oz indigo-indigo is more challenging to fade, but the fabric also seems to be almost indestructable. So I expect further great fades but late destructions in the coming 500 days.

Decided to give them another 40 degree Celsius wash after 518 days. Not a big change but the colors and contrast seem to be a bit more flashy now
@Jcaz6996 they look amazing man. And I have to agree on the part with the most comfortable pair. Mine has just reached 365 days and they are crazy soft:
A few quick shots after 400 days of wear. I feel the same as @AdamJ - at the beginning it feels like it takes forever but once the fades have started they can‘t be stopped anymore IMG_3863.jpeg
Wearing them daily lately. While summer was quite sweaty, I almost forgot that they are ridiculously comfortably as soon as the temps drop down. Especially considering the slimish fit and the 25oz….
Gave them their 5th machine wash and few repairs lately. Almost 600 days down. I am sure they will easily last for 1000 days.
Some office shots, I took yesterday:
Small update after 372 days. And a comparison shot with my PIH5DCT (20 days more)
I agree on the previous statements that they are really warm. Actually I expected them to breath really easily as people report on the 21oz indigo denim
@bobbyg not really as the shortening on the sleeve is due to folding of the elbow combs and there is no permanent folds in the core area
@krebsy Fantastic choice! I wore the pants version of this iteration for 8 years. It's the best fading denim, I ever worn!

@wildeep sorry, somehow your question slipped through. I washed it quite a fair amount of times and obviously wore it quite a lot. Indeed it became supersoft by now!

@beef_bonanza said in PIH5DCT - 25oz Indigo/Indigo Selvedge Denim Tapered Cut:
Yeah…crisp and clean is actually the right description. Normally I am not a fan of poppy arcs but the white-light blue ones here seem interesting. Because I think I can make them disappear by fading the surrounding fabric to a similar tone. I really enjoy this fading process. Especially as I have tonal arcs on other pairs and the evolution is the other way round there
Thanks @DeeDee85 and @Mizmazzle : yes, it‘s „net“ days. Took me since 2016 to get there though…as I just wear them once a week or though…not enough legs and too many pairs that want to get faded. I guess you know the story:-)

@Daniel-San Thanks dude. Shame on me, I have not tried the 21oz indigo signature denim yet. However I find them really soft by now, but I cannot confirm the initial sweatpants-like softness and breathability other folks report regarding the indigo version. So I assume there is a difference but I cannot confirm based on 1:1 comparison yet
