      Wow, I had forgotten how much 25 oz denim can hurt.  I have been wearing 14 over the last 6 months because of summer and stuff.

      I've got bruised thumbs and indigo everywhere.  But I managed to wrestle myself into the 25 indigo/indigo which I'll exist in for the next couple years.

      I told my girl that I'll be sleeping in these jeans for the next two year.  She said me or the jeans, so I guess I'll take them off at night  😃

      I went with a 31, and they are skin tight, like so tight I don't know think I'll be able to fit the normal one or two layers of wool long johns on that I normally wear during the winter.  Hope this 25 oz is warm!

      Pics to come.

              Gav,

              Thanks for putting those pictures up and the advice.  I am going to see how the 888’s fit when they come in and decide on either the 634 xhs-od or the 888’s.

                  Ramping up for this contest which is quickly approaching, I was hoping for some more experienced folks' recommendations and results with using spray starch?

                  I have the heavy duty Niagara kind and was looking for application feedback where to apply (I'm planning in the lap area to enhance whiskers and behind the knees for honeycombing) as well as how often?

                  Thanks in advance! Hope the post wasn't tl/dr

                    @tfahey00 , we don't use starch dude. The contest is about natural wear and evolution "starching" is basically like boxing with horse shoes in your gloves.

                                      Doesn't start until November 1….  I'm pretty sure you can even enter after the start date, it just means you have less wear time.

                                            Hey @fanya that awesome pair of 25oz Beatle Busters you had from a couple years ago… were they as tight as these 25oz are? And did they ever get comfortable? I'm debating on what pair I should go with. The 888s (likely to be looser and comfy) or all out masochism the Pronto XHS I just got. The Prontos fit great in the waist but are tight as fuck when I sit down. Thinking maybe the tightness might help the awesome fades though, if you're picking up what I'm putting down. Thinking I can put up with a couple of months of agony if the payday is worth it.
