      Damn, I'm glad no one's angry! That would be weird  😃

      It's all down to perception I guess, but I'm certainly amongst those with a big, meaty butt and thighs and these are roomy af. I can do high kicks in them and all (If I wanted to).  ???

      Either way there's always variations in measurements between iterations. The thigh on W36 666's can go from 12.4" -13" and on 634's from 13.1" - 13.6" so everyone should be able to pick up something that works for them with time.

      In general the avg. thigh size for a 634 in a 36 waist is 13.8 (at least for the XHS). You'll be hard pressed to find a 13.1.

        I have a pair  at 13.1. But thanks for checking the XHS. Makes my point more effectively [emoji1417][emoji4]

                  Initially, just badminton! Legs were huge before ever lifting a weight. Then I got into weightlifting, and had a 34" waist with 30" thighs.  This was however impractical and I was stuck wearing super baggy 38" crap with a belt.  The last two years I've been perpetually injured, and I gained some fat and lost some muscle.  Legs vary with weight, which fluctuates. Currently legs are 28", waist 35.5". 27.5/35 is where I'll try to stay indefinitely (probably ;))

                    Anybody else notice how much deeper the front pockets are on this cut?

                    @Giles:

                    Should be 2 cms longer…

                    While pocket depth may be considered a small detail by some, it's a very welcome improvement!

                      The deep pockets are brilliant. The edc items fit really easily.

                          634+bb+1955=888s. Glad I went with my 634 size, probably could of sized down because there was no IH gauntlet of pain breaking these in like the 634s. Just a tab tight in the waist and thigh but after a day completely broken in. It was kinda hard to get the legs over my Wesco engineers which makes them easy to stack. Hope these stick around because I think I found my go to jeans.

                              I guess it comes down to people's opinions of what constitutes a big, meaty butt and thighs.  😃  When I was properly training I was far bigger in that region, and even now I don't fit these.  Imagine if I slimmed my tummy back down to 34" again  ???

                              Feel sympathy for my best mate, and former england badminton player, who had thighs only an inch smaller than his waist.  😃 😃 😃

                                You're right of course. Another variable is what the individual considers to be acceptable when it comes to space to move in the thigh. On the whole I like snug (not tight) but I get the impression that many prefer a bit more room in the thigh than I do.

                                  Just wanted to echo what everyone else has been saying - the 888 may be my grail cut (they all have their strengths though)

                                  Immediate love upon putting them on 10 minutes ago. Perfect in the top block, great taper.  😛

                                      How are people liking the fit? The only pair I have are the Pronto Double Indigo Slims and I love the legs on them and just assume the top block will be a bit roomier.

                                      Ohhhhhh that constitutional stitching!

                                        Still loving the fit on mine.  Haven't put them in regular rotation yet though, still wearing my 18oz vintage.  The nights are finally starting to cool off in Phx though so it should be soon that they'll be put in rotation.

                                          Looking forward to this cut in a variety of denims in the future.  😎

                                          I tried a pair in a 36 yesterday, they fit perfect. Noticed IH Europe are out so just ordered them from rivet and hide. These are going to be favourite jeans along with my 555s!
