I'm liking those tag 38 numbers. Tempting.

Wow. These rise measurements are wearable for me. Never thought I’d see a 777 where that was the case.

According to the measurements I would have to size up in 777 rather than the 555’s

Trend to be bigger…

Half an inch in waist shrinkage will get me to just about what I bought my 555s at.

Is there a measurement that stays the most consistent in the xhs denim? Waist, rise, knee, thigh?

[Appfaff]

holy cow, the 38s are nearly a perfect fit for me!

Every measurement shrinks proportionate to its total length. Normally that is around 3-6% depending on the level of sanforisation. If a 36” waist shrinks 1” then a 12” thigh will shrink around 0.3” and so on.

@neph93 I guess I could've worded a bit better, more in the context of making the actual measurements tables. I know of the waist variations but does the same variations apply to the knee, thigh , both rises, and hem or are those able to stay more uniform?

Nope.  The 25oz denim is the hardest denim we make to actually sew.  So variation happens in all areas because the seamstresses are having to wrestle the fabric through the machines…And because they are not machines themselves not 2 pairs will be exactly the same....

…now that's interesting to know and makes sense.

. Note of caution… I hot soaked,washed and put them into a hot drier,and I don’t feel as if I got any shrinkage. Feels as if the waist might have stretched since I’ve been wearing them.

Stretch or no stretch that 38.1 is pretty much what my 555-01od measure out to after some wear.

@Nskelton - Awesome, sounds like you can grab a tag 38 off the shelf with no worries. See you at launch!

[Nskelton]

If there are some variances I'll probably ask for a pair with a little more on the rises.

[Jett129]

Years ago when I got a pair of 777s I asked for the pair in my size with the highest rise and it definitely helped.

[Kasi]

For years of wearing 777’s I passed…  ::)

“don’t go pass 555’”  :o
