    So the IHxb01 is in between 666 and 634?  And I'm looking at the sizing and it looks like I'd get 33 maybe 32?  Because I love how the 666s fit from knee down but I just need a roomier upper block.  Maybe if I could somehow stretch the thighs an inch

        It's possible, but we have a shit load of new jeans hitting over next few months, so I need to get that lot sorted first….

          I wear the same "tag size" in 666 18oz and BB 21oz, both fit well but differently.  The 666s have a lower rise and slimmer thighs than the BBs. Very different fit/cuts imo.  But ultimately just trust and go with the measurements on the site.  The BBs won't shrink much.

            I agree that these are very different cuts…. the rises are on opposite ends of the spectrum.

                          These will probably be my next pair, quick sizing q if I may..

                          I'm a tight 34 in 634S, would ideally be a 35.

                          I'm a comfortable 36 in 666D.

                          What would you guys recommend for the 666S?

                          Thanks,
                          Mike.

                              Hey Mike. No less than 12.5 I'd say..

                                If you go 36 the tighs will end up about the same size as your devil ducks but the topblock might be too loose as the new run comes different. I'd say go with a 34 and give em some time to get the thighs back to presoak (will shrink horizontally about 3% as well). give em only a warm soak at the beginning. topblock/waist seems to fit you perfectly after a soak, but beware they are slim ;). Rises will be a lil lower as the duck after soak. but as you know I like slim fits snug..I leave the final decision upon you. hope this helps 🙂

                                Cheers,
                                David

                                  Thanks a lot Davito.

                                  TBH I'm a bit scared of IH 34's these days.  34 busters were too tight in the thigh and waist.  34 634s are also a bit tight in the waist to be comfortable long term.

                                  Maybe ill try the 34 666s and return (pre soak) if they are not gonna work. Better that than them being too big.. Maybe.

                                  Thanks again buddy.

                                    no problem, yeah they are slim but when you are used to slim fits then this is the way to go imho

                                    34 busters are more 33 in waist and depending what you do they do not stretch that much and usually shrink a lil bit after a wash, which may give you an unpleasant feeling.
                                    so you could have a "problem" in the indigo devils 34 because of the thighs if you are not used to snug fits even when the waist would be OK. remember 18oz is harder to stretch imo.

                                    this is a beautiful jeans so you might try and when not happy return  😃

                                    or you go with 36 indigo busters having a bit higher rise and snuggier shape overall than your 634 but still comfy, cant go wrong with the signature 21oz but not the same as 18oz unsanforized 😉  🙂

                                    Cheers,
                                    David

                                          ^ Nice Fit there guys.  Expecting mine in a few days.. looking forward to these 🙂

                                          Took your advice Davito (and Giles) and went for the 34.  Will post fit pics soon.
