      @Megatron1505 my 666UHR stretched out to tag size quite fast. They hurt quite a bit in the beginning. First week was quite painful.

        It would definitely be a challenge, I did wear a pair of 20 oz Flat Head's in the summer here once and that was tough as the denim was not the most breathable.
        I don't know how those Thai guys manage to do it!

          Well, if you do take the plunge, I would recommend sizing up one because you'll be washing them pretty regularly I would guess!

            Valid suggestion, I think I'll most likely hold off and just enter my Ooe Yofukutens into the contest.
            I don't think I could put up with 100+ degree weather for a few months in such a heavy pair of jeans.
            Hell, I've got to work on the other two pairs of IH denim that I already do have.
            It's just tempting see how nice these pairs turned out.

              You guys and heat. I work outside and wore the 23oz SE last summer and the 25oz MMBs the previous summer.  Sack up boys 😉

                @Megatron1505 they look fantastic.  That's the best fitting jean I have ever seen you in.  I am sure the pain in the waist is not pleasant but if you can make it through, you are going to be set…

                      I'm going to try to wear mine through the summer and it gets pretty hot and humid in NYC.

                          Haha! I imagine I won't be wearing them much in July and August.

                              Well, Manhattan was once a swamp, thus swamp nuts aren't hugely surprising. 😃 😉

                                          @Megatron1505. They shrunk over 2inches in the waist??

                                          10:30 pm my reaction was: “Oh boy… They are measuring in at 33″ in the waist! Not dry yet!”
                                          11:30 pm: I put them on damp and they stretched right out to just under 34″. Forgot to keep in mind that these are so thick that you have to account for the side fabric when you try to measure flat.

                                          It all started with a leaf…

                                            Mine measured 35" inside the material, today they feel MUCH better. These are going to be perfect and I advise anyone who goes through the painful squeeze of a first fit that it will be fine.
