        @StoneMagnet:

        In terms of breaking in the 25oz, are we talking mostly full range of mobility but with pinching here and there? Or 'I need a grabber to pick things up off the floor' territory?

        It’s a different beast to the 21oz. Quite restrictive for the first few weeks. But well worth it in the long run.

        As far as sizing, I agree with G that 36 should work. If in doubt, measure the waist on your IH-777S as they are now compare with the waists on the IH-777-XHS and add about  half an inch to that. If the two figures are in the same ballpark then you’re good.

        I am waiting for the 777XHS to come in, but paining over what size as I guess they'll go fast. 34 or 35? Currently wearing 555 01 in a 36 but a bit large on waist but doable. Also 555 01od in a 35 waist. Nice fit. Now the predicament…I now realise the 555 01 does stretch a fair way so do I bite the bullet and go 34 and go back on the 5:2 diet or play safe with 35? I reckon buy both and send the other back...Looking at measurement comparison the 777 has a gnats cock more room in the legs making me lean towards a 34 waist. *buries head in hands

          @WeirdowithaBeardo the key question is thigh width. How do your 555-01 fit in the thigh?

          The other thing to remember is that XHS is a very different beast to 21oz. It will shrink some before stretching a little. It is like me in the mornings, cranky, grumpy and stiff.

          I’d imagine w35 would be good but I’d have to look at the dims to be sure. I’ll do that for you shortly.

            Wait until the restock.  There is a reasonable chance that measurements for this run will vary from currently published.

            Also, there is quite a lot of variance in sizing within tag-size with the XHS as it is such a bastard to sew, so we may be able to find a pair that suit you more than published…

              Thanks. Is there an approx ETA for next batch? I’m sure it’s a ‘how long is a piece of string’ question!

                      They are looking really good. I go back and forth between the UHR and the XHS as my favourite IH denim, but the XHS wins by a whisker (pun intended).

                      Do you work in these, and if so, what kind of work? @momo73

                                    Does that mean a restock within like, a month would be realistic?
