Because of their lighter weight I've been unintentionally ignoring them in my closet, but after that slick @Oaktavia bib/jacket combo pic I knew I had to make a change
My XHSib is getting some fantastic progress, time to put in the work on my two pairs of bibs -

The truth is that I have some issues with how I look (I always pick more form-fitting clothes for fear that I'll look fat) and the bibs aren't exactly a tailored look
As such, I've been wearing my IH-634-XHS exclusively as I've come to the conclusion that, while the 21oz is unreal, the 25oz is the ultimate fabric from IH.
As it stands, my XHS button holes are shredded (unintentional flashing might happen cause so many need repair) and I've just rinsed them and am dropping them off at SESF this weekend. I donned my 634S this AM but then remembered my overalls.
I haven't worn these in months and months and, anytime I saw someone on here wearing theirs, I thought that that was cool for you but I would probably sell mine off before wearing them again. Then … I tried them on again. I'm such an idiot. These things are exquisite. The 21oz on these is, just as I remembered, even softer than can be explained. And I love how loose and comfy they are. Ugh. Forgive me brethren.
Also, that's my "the photo's been taken already and I'm gonna see if I look okay" face. I don't understand self-timers I guess.

Looking great in the bibs as always @henry_david
While I, unlike my wife, like how I look in the bibs, simple fact is wearing them makes me happy, and while I tend to personally love the tight knit handfeel of the 25oz, the 21oz still surprises with it's pajama like softness (if your pajamas are 21oz, obviously ) -
(if your pajamas are 21oz, obviously
)Well in the 'what should we make thread' @endo was suggesting pjs in denim or chambray so you never know…

simple fact is wearing them makes me happy
And the prize for most unnecessary statement of the day goes to @Joberwocky - you can see the happiness oozing out of every pore when you put these things on!
Still nowhere near following this path, but there’s something compelling about what’s going on here.

Haha, I suppose I deserved that @ARNC
Who knows, maybe once in a antique silver goblet-fueled stupor you'll wake the next morning to find a shipping confirmation, qty 1 rocking pair of bibs -

But still, every single time she touches it she is amazed at how rough it feels. Whatcha gonna do.
P.S. I love my 21oz, but I don't think I'd ever put myself through the torture of breaking in 21oz in my sleep.

Maybe we need a new category of “lay brothers” or something for guys who appreciate what the brothers are doing but haven’t (yet?) committed and taken their vows?
-
Welcome to the Brotherhood, novitiate ( @ARNC ). You're welcome even as you consider donning the garb of the Brotherhood.

I love the natty belt @Filthy and the fades are a-mah-zing!
I have my bibs hung up for now, as they are only 12oz and that is no match for the sub freezing temps here in Maryland lately. I do look forward to wearing them with just a pair of Birkenstocks and an old cut up t shirt this summer.

Thanks. I love the belt too. I was worried about the large buckle and it being uncomfortable but it is very comfortable and keeps my pants up well because it is so wide b
