            @Cruelster - terrific fades!  what's your secret for taking care of the patch?  it seems the 888 Octopus is a tough one to keep from cracking.  your's is looking quite nice.  also - i take it you're a lefty?

                          After washing I apply a little bit of Bick 4 to the patch.

                            Man, I forgot how awesome IH’s shipping is to the East Coat, USA.

                            Just got my size 32 in, and realized THIS is the size I should have originally picked up! They are legit perfect from the waist down. The waistband is a bit tight, but I’m hoping for around an inch of stretch (my 33s went about 1.5”).

                              I feel like this is a lesson I should have learned a long time ago, especially with the 21oz.  For the longest time ive been sizing up on the 555 cut to make the thighs work.  Turns out I should have went with the 888 all along.  Thighs AND waist fit perfect when I factor in stretch.  Live and learn i guess.

                                    hej everyone
                                    i have a beautiful pair of IH-777S-19ib  they fit perfectly, i only wish that the back rise is a bit higher. i move a lot and crouching is sometimes (even with belt on) exposing the bits i would keep for myself 😃
                                    that's why i'm looking into direction of the 21oz 888s. is there someone here that has both pairs and can comment on sizing ?
                                    my size in 777s is 33 (actual 33.8) and they are very generous in the waist. top block is fine and fit super nice, but i need a belt. could definitely go with whole inch down in waist.

                                      Sounds to me like a pair of 555s is what you’re looking for,especially if the only issue is a bit more back rise.

                                        thanks Jett, yeah, initially was thinking about that, but would rather go for a bit more relaxed than slim cut.

                                          @prpx I had the exact same issue. I started with 888 and I love them, but the back rise is a tad high, so then I went for a pair of 777 which I also love, but the back rise is a bit shorter than I preferred granted it is a great pair still that I wear frequently. So I decided to try 555 in the fade to grey mainly because the back rise seemed between the 888 and 777 and its definitely a sweet spot. They are much slimmer than the 888, much closer to 777 in overall fit IMO, but the 888 back rise you may find too high depending on what you're looking for vs the 555. Again this is just my experience with the pairs, and the 888 and 555 both seem like good options if you want something higher rised in back.

                                            @hgering27 - thanks a lot!
                                            originally i was considering 555's but there were no sizes available so i went with 777's. on me the 777's are really super nice, a bit wide in waist and a bit low on back. the rest is great, really perfect fit, but i wouldn't go any tighter. i'm 45yo and like a tad bit more leg space. i think i'll just go size down with 888's

                                            thanks again, people on this forum are just precious!!
