    Different denim = different fit.  They try to anticipate how the denim will behave and compensate for any variations, but it doesn't always work out.

          Ed, I'm sure it fits very differently because if it is 24oz, you have a one-off…..

              2nd pair, via Ropeadope

              Tagged 32 natural stretch no washes

              Tagged 30 stretched with a lot of pressure

              Both waist are 34…I like the slimmer lower leg on the 30

              31 could be the the perfect size.....

                      Hey Haddtoo,

                      How did you manage stretching the thighs? Just from wear?

                      The thighs on drastically downsized 666XHS must be brutal.

                          People think that we know the post shrink/stretch measurements for every pair of jeans that have ever been made.  Unfortunately we don't. And if we guess and get it wrong, we all end up being disappointed.  So this is why we did this:

                            Thighs were the worst thing about getting them wet. I just put them on damp, if I waited till dry, forget about it. I'll be able to soak the 32's without worry.

                              Been wearing my IH-666-XHS's for a couple of days so far.  I've gotta say I have massive respect for this denim.  It's been biting me on my hips, thighs and backs of the knees a bit, I will admit.  I'm sure once they're broken in that they will be super awesome.

                              I'm sorry if this has already been discussed, and I know that they will stretch out over time naturally with use, but I was curious if any of you XHS veterans can give me any specific suggestions or strategies on how to stretch the front and back pockets a bit.  I can feel the waist stretching already, but the pockets are super tight.  Is there anything you do to the pockets to help speed up the process and make them looser?

                              Cheers

                                Put whatever you normally carry in them and start squatting. They do start to give within a week or so, and you'll notice a bit more room over time. Across my hips at pockets were where mine bit worst anyway.

                                  Hey aztecraws,

                                  I definitely know where you are coming from. I couldn't get my wallet out of my back pocket without using two hands for the first few weeks.  My girl would just shake her head at me in disapproval as I battled my pockets for possession of my wallet. It was a struggle.

                                  Like jdl says though, just do what you normally do and wait it out. They'll give in eventually.

                                  That denim is really one-of-a-kind, though. Enjoy!

                                          Gure,  I'd go with the 33, they'll be a little painful to start with but should end up just right…..That is, if you did measure them like this:
