IH-888-NT - 21/23oz indigo Selvedge DWC Jeans

Do I need to allow for shrinkage with the hemming? I bought the IH888S with a hemming of 32 for the inseam which was just right.
Allow 2 inches, or soak then hem them local to you (i can send you a list of people in the USA)
Thanks for your help today @Alex with all my various questions both through here and email.
My pleasure

Might as well add these in here too, fit pics of the 888-NT.

@Megatron1505 Killer fit, Mega. How did you handle the initial soak? Curious of your shrinkage experience?
-
@megatron1505, great fit
Is your waist shrunk 1 inch and stretch back to original size ?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

@celik , basically Alex washed the shit out of them before I got them as a shrink test.
@Mustafa911 , the waist was VERY tight when I first tried them on, I would guess it has expended probably more than an inch after 15 - 20 wears.
-
I'm guessing slightly less than an inch, the main shrink is in the waist but that does stretch back.

Thanks man, the credit goes to the cut of these indigo monsters on my legs

Look good in that Cookie Monster, Gav.

@neph93 Are you grabbing these bad boys? I think u already have the 888 21oz right?
Nevernind Reuben. I just saw your response in the DWC thread.

@neph93 , I too had the UHR busters but got rid of them as the cut wasn't ideal for me (esp. the huge ass leg opening in size 38 ???) and am now happily awaiting the 888NTs which should turn out perfectly. I think the UHR denim is so incredible it's worth wearing it in a perfect cut that guarantees the best evo of this fantastic denim. You wear the 888-cut perfectly by the way and there are still plenty of 888-UHRs left ;).

Was expecting to come home today and find these waiting for me. But still out for delivery according to U.P.S. Grrr
