Check my posts In my profile, I went last year, should be some pics under what are you doing today. I'll snap more.

i'm just a hard-working blue-collar professional "rolling my way through" 

That sounds like a new signature.

Awesome.  Will do.  Didn't come back to the forum until late 2015, so I totally missed your posts.  Much appreciation!

JUST RESTOCKED IN ALL SIZES

Cool.  Do you know if the sizing is like the last batch or not?  I'm looking to pull the trigger on tag size 29 or 30 depending on the waist size measurements.  Cheers.

If the sizing was different, we would have updated the sizing table and put the new measurements here.

The sizing of the IH-666-XHS that arrived today, was a little different from the previous run, so we did this:

Cheers for the reply.  Wallet depleting action is now imminent.

I sized down to 26 from my regular 28 to get a 28" waist on these. I can button them up but the entire top block feels pretty damn thight. Does the SBG denim stretch as much as the regular 21oz denim? If so I should be golden.

[Giles]

Yes…

Thanks G! And thanks Matt for measuring a few different pairs to get me sorted. IH seriously has the best customer service on the planet.

[Dion]

That's a seriously nice fit! Evo will be amazing, too!

[Giles]

Thank YOU…...

I'm taking these to Self Edge today to get hemmed. I wore them for a few hours the last couple evenings and I think they are going to stretch out just fine. Not sure what will happen once I wash them, but I'll probably just hand wash them cold anyway since the washing machine in my apartment building is horrible. I think I've found my perfect cut in the 555. It fits way better in the top black than my 301s.

@superfuzz:

1. Not sure what will happen once I wash them…

2. It fits way better in the top black than my 301s.

1. I have the BB's in the same fabric. There is decent stretch to be had and what little shrinkage you get stretches straight back out again.

2. This is my experience. The low rise and roomy top block of the 301 isn't for everyone. 555 is smarter imho.

Thanks Neph for the words of encouragement!

What are you thinking? feels a bit tight, but with 1 inch of stretch it should be ok.

[Giles]

They'll stretch no probs

Anyone have luck sizing down on these from their 666XHS size?  I wear a 36 in XHS (smallest I can get over my thighs, although the waist is no issue) and the 34 in the 555-03 have the same thigh measure and the waist I want pre stretch… thinking I might be able to handle the smaller knee with stretch, as long as (and Sam agrees) I can get them over my knees lol Don't have anything as slim to compare against in my closet, so it's a guessing game right now.

anyone need to talk me out of this idea? lol
