I own these, and fully agree with G.

go TTS

Thanks for the thread on sizing here.

I went up one size on my 666s and thank god i did. They barely fit in the thigh area. Also, went up one on my sanforized Beatles. (All my other IH denim is size 33)

Since these stretch, sounds like TTS is the way to go…

Sad day.. mine entered the wash rotation about 3 months prematurely after I dumped maple syrup all over them.  I don't think I could get away with just wiping that off….

[zwer]

Dunno - should have left them and told people you were going for the sick Montreal fades that are all the rage.

[dave]

lol… example?

[zwer]

Can't help you, sorry. Maple syrup ain't cheap.

I'm going for the sick new 'Canadian' fades on my 666-XHS. Spilled beer on them twice last week.

[Sugar Mountain]

Any fades yet from ice hockey or logging?

(or moshing at a Rush concert?)

[zwer]

No, but I have some beaver teeth marks on the right leg.

tts for the 18oz

Is there an example of this denim faded? Looks like no one has worn these things long enough..
I just really don't like slubby, hairy, does the slub get worse

[zwer]

You could check the 666s thread - same denim. I haven't found the denim to be overly slubby or hairy, compared to other brands, just slubbier and hairier than other weights of IH denim.

The thigh on the 33 looks perfect but if it shrinks I may have to go 34- but then the waist may be to big, damn unsanforized 

[RP]

nerkg- I have these in tag size 33.  After a hot soak, the thigh went from 12.5 to 12.  I haven't measured them in a while, so I don't know if the thigh later stretched out again.  The waist went from 34.5 to about 33.75 and is now probably back to 34.

I'll try to throw some pics up later of my battle scarred pair, almost a year of near constant wear.

Oh no, so I need the larger pair if thigh shrinks that much..

I'd like to see a shot or two of these, Mega.  I'm also debating on a sz 36.
