There's no Such Thing as a Stupid Question

Thanks Giles. Boot sizing is tricky business.

It is…..

I'm slowly learning by trial and error which cuts are more comfortable and which ones I like better on me. My journey over nearly two years, looks like this so far:

I started with a 634 (14 oz), then got a 633 (21 oz from Self Edge) and more recently got a PIHDCS (25 oz). I like the 633 and the Pronto ones quite a bit more than the 634. So, I'd like to know which other IH cuts are closer to the ones I like so far, and I can't quite figure it out looking at the numbers on the sizing thread.

Is the upcoming 888 my best option? What is the difference between a 666 and a 633? Hope someone has tried them and is able to give a real-life opinion. Thanks.

666 is more of a straight leg cut, whereas the 888 will have a higher rise and a taper. I own all the cuts you do too. If you like the 633, the Pronto Slim, 555, 777, & 888 will be best for you. All of those cuts have a taper. Depending on your rise preference (low vs high) for IH cuts I'd recommend the 777 or 555/888.

Thanks for your advice, Fadez!
Would you consider the 633 and the Pronto PIH5DCS 'super slim tapered' cuts? I don't find either as super slim around the thighs…and I'd be worried about that with the 555 and 777. I need the thigh area to have some free space as I live in a hot and humid city; but not entirely loose either.

The 633 is not slim tapered. It's more of a regular tapered fit, while the slim pronto cut is generally not as slim as the 555 or 777. Measuring tables are your friend. They should tell you all you need to know.

^ Agreed

888's, I might be bias but they are pretty awesome

Does anyone ever bother to pay to pre book their seats on a long haul flight before check in? I really don't want to pay £75 extra per seat, but I also don't want to risk being sat next to some flying jerk.

@Megatron1505:

Check Tommy in separately….....

I never pay......

Is the starter pack no longer available? (10% discount when you buy a shirt and pants together.)

[Alex]

No, it was not getting used in the capacity it was designed, the 21IHE replaced this

Ok just checking! Bummer!

Is it not possible/advisable to use canvas duck (or some other kind of indigo-dyed fabric) for the waistband? That will prevent the waistband from stretching after wearing the jeans.

Personally, I prefer jeans with minimal waistband stretch.

[UnTucked]

I think if you wear a belt, your jeans waistband will not stretch any bigger than the size you have your belt tightened to… At least that's what I think common sense dictates, but I could be wrong.

[neph93]

Hiut's have an internal canvas waistband on their jeans. It doesn't retard waist stretch on them.

[DougNg]

They should use that as a slogan

Hiut's: Our Waist Stretch Isn't Retarded

[neph93]

The man behind Hiut is an ex advertising man. I can't believe he didn't come up with that himself…
