      Quite a good footballer, but much bigger douchebag, at the KC Chiefs.

            @mikebarhoot See here for the original and yes I’m an idiot. But at least I accept and have fun doing it. 🙂

                probably already answered elsewhere but who is in your avatar pic?

                The right person.

                      Do you wear any XHS regularly? If not what's your favorite denim weight?

                        @Giles i have a question about the 555 and the 888 cut.

                        I have one of each and the thigh, knee, and leg opening are pretty much identical. However, the 555 does feel a bit slimmer still. I’m wondering if this is in my head or does the pattern make a difference still even though those measurements are the same…

                        In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                          I have some XHS, but I don't wear it a lot. I have no favourite denim weight, I wear a new pair of jeans when a new denim comes out and wear them for about a year until a new denim is released. If a new denim is available, I wear one I have not worn before. So I have worn just about everthing between 13.5 and 25 and they all my favourite at the time.

                          Scratch that, the original 18oz raw I specced....

                                @Giles yes. I totally understand how they are very different cuts and a side by side comparison of the two in roughly the same size should be unique to their individual cut styling.

                                What I’m wondering though, is if two pair (888 & 555) do happen to have the same thigh, knee and leg opening measurement, (but possibly a different tag size) would the leg be the same in the two pairs or would the 555 somehow still manage a slimmer profile even if those measurements were the same?

                                  @popvulture @Giles i have a pair of og 18oz Busters I got from @ROman that I’ve only just started to wear. I consider myself very fortunate to have a fresh pair so long after they went extinct. The og 18 made the best OD imo as well. Even though they were about two sizes smaller than tag. 😝

                                    I’m asking for a rule that you guys can’t talk about the original 18 oz raw … where are my moderators!?

                                          No, if those measurements were the same, they would be the same......I've never been able to get a pair of 555's on but have no problems with the 888's, so I'm sort of not sure I understand how they could be the same, but perhaps I am misunderstanding the question......
