        I gotta say if the thighs don't get tweaked on the second run then I would say the whole point of cut has been missed. I am a 32/33 and 12.3 in the 32 and 12.6 in 33 are not what I would consider roomy thighs….

        And I know ask 100 people and get 100 different answers.

          I gotta say Layton that I do feel your disappointment as you were really looking forward to this cut coming to fruition. It seems that in actuality this cut, for you, hasn't measured up to your expectations which were, quite rightly, based on the initial discussions / descriptions of how these jeans would fit.  😞

              Same here. Hopefully the DWC UHR lot comes with roomy thighs as listed in the predicted size guide..

                I am talking to Tom san about what we can and can't do.

                Unfortunately, (or fortunately, whichever way you want to look at it)  fabric production and sewing are very inexact sciences, if you expect it to be an exact science, then you will forever be disappointed.

                The UHR denim came about because Haraki was trying to develop a new 21oz fabric, it came out NOTHING like he was predicting or expecting, but our little part of the world would be a poorer place, had he not done what he did.

                And in the case of the 888, in terms of being exactly what we predicted and aimed for, we failed.  But fuck, a lot of people seem to love it.

                  In my case it is quite close to my ideal fit. I imagine when the time comes I'll just ask for the pair with the biggest thigh measurement in stock and it will be fine. I'm looking forward to seeing some fit pics from the 36-38 waisted members.

                    And Giles said next run or fabric(can't remember) they are going to try and get the thighs a little bigger. So give it some time and see what happens. I think we all have enough jeans to last us years to come….and this is a "problem" that isn't detrimental to us as humans, so here's to looking at the future of the 888 cut.

                      For good reason, it's a brilliant cut, especially for a large percentage of Western physiques.

                            Personally I'm happy about the slimmer thigh, but what I want with this cut is for it to be a like a fuller version of the 555 which I love, but is really too slim for me unless I live with a bigger waist. So 13.2" on the W35 should be good. Essentially a slim-ish tapered fit on a chunky body. Anything under 13" is really too tight and over 13.5" and it doesn't suit my frame. Full report tomorrow evening.
