    I’m definitely not skinnier an inch up. That’s where my belly is.

        Here's my IH collection, apologies for the poor pics
        The 3 images in the top row are the 633S-18 in size 33 and the bottom 3 images are the 633S-142 in size 31.  The 6633S-142 are a very tight fit with very little room in the front rise.  Do you think the 888S-21 in size 32 will be too loose?

          @pexel Here is my take on it with all the inter web warnings. I would go with 32, they will be 33s. Fit is personal but looks as if you need size in the thighs.
          Thighs don’t stretch much or not at all.

          If they fit generous you can always wash a bit warmer or do mild spin to shrink, but going in the other direction is difficult.

          Others may know better….

            Today marks the 285th wear day. Nothing beats the comfort of 21OZ. Perfect Friday pants!

            Use it or lose it.

              With a natural 35.5" waist, I'm torn between size 35 and 36 in the 21 oz. 888S.  Suggestions appreciated.

              In terms of fit preferences, I'm hoping they end up comfortable and slightly relaxed (but not sloppy or loose) as opposed to tight or trim.

              Thanks,
              John

                IMO I would pay more attention to the rise and leg then, the waist will stretch for you with time.

                  Bought a pair at SESF today. Agonized over sizing, see my earlier post from when I first tried em on a couple weeks ago. After much consultation with the sales rep, went with the 33. If it stretches to fit like the 34 it'll be perfect.

                  Just waiting on the hem now. Expect some pics soon!

                    I am 35.5 as well.
                    Size 35 works well for me.

                      I was in Self Edge today.  They were out of the 888S 21oz. in size 36, but I tried on the same size in the 888S-14oz. – the fit was perfect.  While tempted, I'm still leaning toward the 21oz. (or even the heavier UHR).

                      For those familiar with both denims, would sizing be the same (i.e., 36) or should I size down to 35 in the 21oz. due to the likely stretch?

                        Overall the UHR is running ‘bigger’ but that’s more for the allowance for shrinkage. I have a 555 xhs and and a 555 uhr in the waist they are fairly the same but overall the 555 is ‘bigger’. So my advice would be to size for the waist in the UHR for the one that will fit you directly out of the bag cause it will stretch back to pre soak measurements in the waist.

                          First fit with these bad boys. A bit snug in the waist for sure but looking forward to the stretch.

                            Fear not! There will be stretch. Very sharp outfit.

                              Looks good everywhere else.

                              As for the waist, my tag-34s started at 33.6 inches, and they shrink back to that after a wash. When still new, they took a couple of days to fully stretch out to a comfy 35 inches. These days, they take a matter of hours to stretch back to that after a wash.

                              I'm confident that you'll get any stretch you need based on my experience.

                              Take the dive...

                                      New to the Ironheart brand with the 888S-21 being my first pair. Two weeks in and I have never had an easier break in process. The only break in was really getting used to a pair that actually fits at the waist. With that being out of the way, these could be easily slept in.

                                      This is an interesting cut and a far departure from my previous purchases of slim fit cuts that are too loose in the waist and too narrow in the thigh.

                                      A big shout out to Ross Phillips ( @Ross ) at Ironheart for helping me through the purchasing process. That level of attention and customer service has guaranteed a happy repeat customer.
