      ??? What is this alchemy… Have I found a cut that actually fits...? How are they so soft straight out of the bag? What the hell is this?

      Can I get a quick fit check to confirm that I'm not going crazy here before I start wearing them properly. The waist feels great while the top block and thighs feel nice and roomy even with all my crap in my pockets. Waist feels a little snug when seated, but doesn't feel like anything a day or two's wear wont fix.

      What do you guys and gals think of the fit? (Sorry if front, side and rear shots is overkill.)

      I think I get it. I think I understand IH now.

      Take the dive...

          Not overkill… just being thorough!

          Glad you’ve found something that works. The 888 is a flexible fit that works for many people, often in different ways. These look great on you.

          The 21oz will stretch in the waist meaningfully so the tightness there is welcome at this point.

            Thanks @Dmart and @neph93. I've cut the tags off!

            I can squat down, bend over and do lunges in these no problem. It's unreal. I've never been able to do that this comfortably with a pair that actually fit at the waist before (because the thighs and top block would be too tight).

            Just no one tell Mrs H that I bought another pair of jeans…

                These are my first pair of IH jeans, I just cut the tags off too.  It's nice to finally find a pair of quality jeans that fit so well.

                The wife also approves of how they look so that's a big win.

                            Here’s crappy phone pic my pair at 222 wear days.

                            Use it or lose it.

                                  If there was anything I’d change with this cut, it’d be a more centered back pocket placement
                                  and just a tad bit tighter back seat (or I should add another leg day…)

                                  But who am I to complain - this cut is damn near perfect!

                                  Use it or lose it.

                                    Almost all IH jeans have wide pocket placements. You need to have access to them if you're sat on a bike  😃

                                      Wide back pockets make IH jeans better for cycling too.

                                        I suggested Haraki make the pocket position more central when I first started working with him.  I got the look, and a short, sharp explanation as to why they are like they are….
