      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.

      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.

        Size 36 measurements look perfect.
        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!

            I was standing in front  of a mirror in Rivet and Hide for about 10 minutes talking myself out of parting with £250 as I'd just bought my 526 19oz lefty type III and didn't think my good wife would appreciate the double purchase! that fit great and with the expected 1 inch stretch will be like a glove. I'm 6'2" and 16 st, and I find that a lot of jeans have to wider leg opening for my tastes for a larger waist size (I swing between a 36 and 38). The 36 in this cut are snug, but I cold instantly tell the stretch I'd get in time with wear.

            As naff as some people think it I really like matching double denim, and these will go great with my lefty, and my lefty goes great with my 555s.

            The funny thing is I went in R & H for a pair of Viberg engineer boots and came away with a new jacket and jeans combo! Iron Heart strikes me again!!

              Nobody here came blame you @Stuart.T and you made a good choice picking up a pair of the 888.  It's such a damn good cut and I can't wait for more 888 denims.

                You'll get all the stretch you need I assure you. Also, dare to double denim!

                  @Giles when the eventual restock of the 888S is ordered, will you spec the bigger thigh measurements you were hoping for originally?

                        I think that's bad news. I hope that future runs in other denim are true to original concept.

                          Personally, that makes me happy. I underestimated the 21oz again and need to flip my W35 and size down. This is such a good cut. Perfect balance between waist and thigh, and the higher rise makes them very stylish.

                            Are you normally a 34 in most other IH cuts?

                              I clearly should be now. I was a 36 about a year ago. Lost some weight.

                                Sorry.  But this has been one of the fastest selling jeans we have ever released.  True the concept is not exactly what I was aiming for, but I'd be pretty stupid to tamper with the cut and risk screwing sales.  Tom thinks (and I have my fingers firmly crossed) that the IH-888NT will be closer to the original concept…

                                  So Giles if these are staying as is which is fair enough considering how well they are doing sales wise. Does that mean there is room for another relaxed top block tapered cut in the future?

                                          Excellent question. I too look forward to the comparison.

                                          The journey is the objective.

                                            Picked up a pair of 36's yesterday  from Mildblend in Chicago and had them hemmed to 31". Im short and fat. They feel perfect everywhere and will be really nice with some stretching in the top block.
                                            Question though. The leg opening is close to 9" anyone have any advice on how to shrink the legs below the knee? I wish they had just a little more taper. If I was taller it wouldn't be a problem as they tapered more but i had 4-5" cut off the length.

                                            Oh and my truck got towed while I was there. 45 minutes. These are now a 875 dollar pair of pants with my tow bill. 😞
