      Sizing down 1 is not a problem. Wouldn't suggest sizing down 2 or 3… Denim of the 9634 feels a lot stiffer (and I think it's warmer/ breaths less) than the indigo 21 oz...

        My opinion the superblack fabric feels a bit more thick and rigid than the 21oz indigo

        Yep, I'd agree with that.

          I think my TTS could be 34, so 33 could be no problem i guess.

          Thanks

              Cause I mostly keep it in here. If I clip it to my jeans, the shirt will snag it up…

                Ah, I'm considering starting to put it in my back pocket or something (can't have it in the front pocket at the office). Have lost one skeletool already, almost lost my second today.

                  I prefer back pocket carry so long as the blade is tip down when I carry (for safety reasons)

                  It's just easier to get the knife out that way when you're sitting or crouched down

                  You just have to make sure the clip is tight or else it's fairly easy to lose it

                  I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

                    So, I want to get one more shirt this year.  The question is, should I go with another Melton or go with a Heavyweight Flannel?  Such a hard decision…

                      Might as well mix it up and grab a flannel. With the popularity of the IHW-01, I don't see it going extinct anytime soon.

                            Can anyone point me in the right direction here, I'm currently Working on a pair of 666XHS at the moment and am looking to rotate them with another pair of jeans. I am after a denim as heavy as possible (preferably 21oz or above)  in a slim and tapered leg as possible (slimmer than my 666) by ANY decent brand out there.

                            Thanks

                            GO HEAVY OR GO HOME

                              These may be of interest to you. Still in production but definitely worth the wait!

                                Sticking within IH cause that's about all I know about you might also consider the 666od or 301s07bk. Not 21oz but close plus the OD denim "feels" heavier than the indigo 21oz, and I think you'd find both those cuts slimmer than your xhs. Plus having an OD pair to rotate with indigo is great.

                                Come to think of it the 07 denim probably is 21oz+ since I think the 19oz spec refers to raw state…. Anyway good luck.

                                          I have been doing a lot of training of recent and a big diet change and have lost about 7/8 lbs in weight an my 666xhs (33W) are becoming loose (soon to be too loose to sit properly with a belt) anyone know of any way I could shrink or adjust the waist in these? Obviously my training and health is more important than my jeans but I love them so much and wouldn't want them sitting in the wardrobe gathering dust!

                                          Thanks again

                                          PS cheers for the quick reply to the last question guys! I really apreciate it!

                                          GO HEAVY OR GO HOME

                                            Don't think you can shrink that much since they are sanforised, but you can always try a hot wash and dry and see how they fit afterwards.  I don't think a tailor would/can adjust the waist on a pair of jeans, too much work and the hazard of blowing up the needles (these are 25oz.)!  If you think you will continue to lose weight, I think you should sell them and buy a new pair once you reached your target weight.  Good thing is you are getting slimmer, looking better  😉 and having a better diet!
