      Also sad to report but I'm just not able to hang – I shelved the 805 while here in LA…  😞

              Bibs for hiking? Depends, I‘d say. They are definitely comfortable and durable, but yesterday here a little too warm when it got strenuous. Otherwise, they are heavenly. You know …

                  I'm at a crossroads, gentlemen.  Am I too short/small to rock these things?  I guess the leg opening is crazier than I typically where (they are bibs, I get that) but I'm also getting some gaping at the bib in front that leads me to believe I'm not broad shouldered enough.  Should I stop being a coward, throw these things in a super hot soak, and rock it?  I'm sure I could fiddle with the straps a tick more.  I don't think there's any issue with the waist, it's comfortable and spacious (ended up going with a 34 (actual 39.5), my size in XHS also being 34).  There are still 32's available, which would mean getting to lose about .5" through nearly every dimension.  I think breaking in a pair of 777's recently has warped my processing haha.

                        Wouldn’t want those to be any tighter if I were you, [mention]Joberwocky [/mention] . I think they look good as is.

                            @henry_david a member of the Brotherhood does not concern him or herself with appearances and just enjoys being swaddled in supple 21oz IH denim 😆

                            Amateur hour on my end, shoulda remembered these wise words from @henry_david

                              @Joberwocky – Honestly I felt like a total clown when I got mine. I have a similar waist measurement as you and felt super conflicted about the overalls when they arrived. It took me about two weeks of wear to not feel like such a dingus.

                              You happen to look great in them and I support you continuing to wear them dude!

                                Well, the bib people have spoken, and even though it's in the 90's here in Annapolis, I think I'll stick with them and accept that not every pair of pants needs to barely fit over the shaft of my engineer boots  😃

                                    @Joberwocky can't add anything else that the others haven't said, they look spot on to me!  😎

                                      Well, I wore them to work today, and regardless of feeling a little like a goober, the 21oz denim is awesome.  I only have one of the 12oz indigo shirts and a pair of XHSib in terms of IH denim, the 21oz feels like a treat

                                            100% - I've got a few bits of 21oz but the 805 gave me a whole new appreciation of it, I think largely down to the relaxed fit. Glad you're enjoying them, and you definitely don't look a goober  🙂
