                  Probably has something to do with the eclipse.

                    First things first, I've missed having 21 oz in rotation. My first two pairs are trashed and fit poorly after weight loss, and although it's IH "standard" denim, it's still some of the best denim around imho so I'm chuffed to have some again.

                    As for the fit… well I could probably have gone a size down. The waist fits perfectly now, but how much it'll stretch remains to be seen. I sized the waist in the same way as I'd size 634's or 666's and at least on me, the higher rise means the waist sits at a slimmer part of my torso than with those two other cuts. That doesn't mean it'll work like that for everyone though. Of course, I think a size smaller and the thigh would be pushing things into snug territory, and that isn't what these jeans are about.

                    What these jeans are about is the comfort of the 634, combined with the class and style of the 555. The high rise is basically cool af. I love it. The top block is a little more relaxed than I thought it would be but still fits tidily. The star of the show though is the taper. It does an amazing job. I'm 6' but have a 31" inseam and these make my legs look long. The hem opening is perfect for wearing with engineers, (and probably good with work boots too, I just haven't gotten that far yet) and this all adds up to a very stylish silhouette.

                    I have two pairs of BB's and I liked that cut but the 888 knocks it on it's arse. A true regular tapered fit, sharp but comfortable. I look forward to other iterations.

                    Shouldn't really add a pic as I only have a shit lighting, mirror selfie but you get the idea:

                      I'm not a denim pants dude, but these are really calling me… Almost all of my jeans are either medium rise and loose through the leg, or low rise and bordermy too tight through the leg.

                      Resisting is difficult, but I'm still holding fairly strong on a 2017 clothes spending freeze. Almost September, and I've only spent $300 thus far.

                      I'm going to have to choose, either these, or the Duck CPO... I hope I don't give in to both (Might happen)

                      IHSH-185, large
                      IHSH-186, large (khaki, and green)

                              @neph93 IIRC I prefer a looser fit than you but IMO those look great on you and I think you nailed it.  Great fit.

                                Thanks for the great review, neph! A sharp fit you have there. I'm too looking forward to the upcoming iterations of this cut.

                                    Thanks gents.

                                    @manufc10 I've generally gone with a slimmer cut previously for one main reason and that is the aforementioned short legs, which mean a tapered leg and/or narrow hem suits me best, and most tapered cuts are slim. It's one of the reasons why I've been excited about this cut. But it also means that I've become used to having a tight.ish thigh, so I'm kind of having to unlearn that with these jeans. I'm looking forward to pairing them with something other than a tee to see how that all works. There's no doubt its a classy cut though.

                                      That's a pair of custom boss on the MP last in the picture. I'll see if I can get a better picture tomorrow. I have a new pair of rough out burlap boss coming in soon and I'm really looking forward to wearing them with these jeans.

                                        I think this cut works fantastic with anything you pair it with.  I tried on T's, UHF's, chambrays, westerns, trucker jackets….and it looks great with everything.  The most versatile IH cut imo.
