Paint wars!

On the 17th, I'll be at 2 months of very consistent wear.
The creases are settling in quite nicely, and the denim is softening up quite a bit
I wear these about 4-5 days a week for work, and plan to keep doing so until I finally get some fades worth talking about… It's high time I get some respect around here! lol!!!
And, as always, I have a shitty pic to boot...

Neeeeeeigh

@neph93 looking good! What size do you wear? That fit is as perfect as can be.

That’s kind of you to say so, thanks.
Tbh I’ve struggled a bit with this pair as I wasn’t used to the rise or the room in the leg. Add to that the UHR denim which takes a long while to settle and I never felt comfortable in them.
I persevered and now I’m really pleased. Looking forward to trying some other versions in the near future. It’s a mature cut and suits my build (short and wide legs, long torso).
These are a W34. I’d actually go all the way down to a W33 in the 21oz iteration based on current measurements. There is no doubt that the height they sit on the waist means you can size down successfully. I’m generally a W35 otherwise.

@Neph93 , this 888 cut is made for you . Did they measure you before the design ?:-)
I am with skinny legs so I hate this cut !

I still haven't soaked or washed these despite wearing and even some times sleeping in these pretty much every day. The fades are really starting to pop.
I guess I shouldn't long for a pair of 25oz XHS 888 too much. Because these seem pretty close now that they are very broken in.

Love how the stacks ended up falling on these.

one more stacks shot but from the other side.

Now that was a mouth full.

Got some great outdoor light this morning. Really itching to soak/wash these. But I think I am going to see if I can get a few more months out of 'em first.

Thanks. Coming from you that means a lot. I am so stoked at how great these fit and how nice they look. It feels like a good payoff of years of misses trying to get the perfect pair of jeans, I finally got them.

Hey all,
Finally bought a pair of 888-UHRs after regretting selling my 634-UHRs a few years ago. My question is: has anyone machine-washed their pair in hot water before wearing them to get the maximum shrink out? How much did you get?
