      I've  not the perfect body type for anything & have a stack of denim & a bunch of posts b1tchin' & whining to prove it.

      U hit it on the head though, different  strokes for different  folks.

      Just seems mean to do that to yourself plus for me form follows  function so not being able to do basic things like sit & climb is kind of insane. We not talking a ball room gown or tuxedo it's denim.

      I fully admit you're correct here. It's some type of twisted satisfaction I get from enduring self-inflicted pain just for well fitted denim, especially given the sheer mass of choice out there right now. Trust me, if I ever start down the tattoo path, I'm certain I'd be a walking canvas filled with ink and art. 🙂

        All is good, just give me some images so folks in the same boat as you can feel that there is hope & can look at some one about their size able to stretch their denim & endure a bit of pain, hahahahaha

        have a safe & happy new year

          I agree that jeans are meant to be worn hard. If you can't do things you want to do while wearing them, there is probably something wrong.

          But I do believe in sacrificing some comfort and agility during the break-in process to yield the fit you want. How much BS you're willing to deal with is up to the individual.

          Honestly, I would have thought about bailing on my sized-down ones if I couldn't work comfortably in them. I gave it two days at work and they finally stretched enough that I noticed that I stopped noticing them, if that makes any sense.

            Makes complete sense! It took me 4 days with the 36 IH666SII world tour jeans. I'm a 38 but I couldn't pass up a month in those even if I had to pay the price for a few days…

                It was brutal but worth it. You can see the initial fit pics on the II world tour thread

                  I'm a 38 in the 666 fit only because of the thigh measurements. In a 634 I could easily pull off a 36 with no pain and probably even a 35.. If they made a 37 in the 666XHS that would be perfect.

                        I have had them 2 years, probably worn around 365 days of that.

                                My two-week old Wild Child wallet is already making an impression on my 666XHS. Interesting to see how this beast vs beast battle plays out.

                                  Show us the wallet with the key hook please. Pretty cool idea, might hijack  it & start using mine again. . .

                                    I'll add a pic of the wallet when I get home.

                                    I actually needed the key hook to leverage the wallet out of my pocket the first few days. Haha. No joke.
