    Hasn’t there been XHS OD? I’m assuming the MB’s would behave similarly in terms of stretch.

      @Paul9221:

      I'll let you know what the measurements are before I put them on and give you an update a day later and then a week later.

      That is definitely what I had in mind!

        There has been, although I don’t remember it being documented. Plus this is different again and I’m a geek [emoji1]

                Just ordered!

                This was a bit confusing in the description:

                • Overdyed - the overdying process takes out all the shrinkage

                • Other dimensions will shrink proportionately to the waist

                Does it shrink or not?! 😃

                Blanket-line all the things!!!

                  It does not. That second bullet point you mention is a standard disclaimer in almost all jeans and will have been C and P’ed in.  Maybe @AdamJ wants to take it out?

                    Technically I have zero cash flow right now, too, but I’ve convinced the wife that this is the entirety of Christmas. [emoji23] Convenient timing.

                        Hahaha I’m not sure Marcia would be amused by that, but it would certainly fit the bill.

                              Hoping ya'll could weigh in. I normally try to get jeans that after stretch will be 35.5 waist. If I get a "mid rise" jean this means that it will sit comfortably on my waist and not require a belt. I'm torn between the 33 and 36. The 36 will surely stretch beyond this and require a belt, but I'm wondering if the 33 would be doable because the cut sits above the mid rise line and my body proportionately tapers in above my hips. Does anyone have experiencing sizing different iron heart cuts according to the rise? Do you usually buy the same waist measurement despite the cut? What kind of waist differentials can you get away with between cuts?

                                Maybe this Mad black 25oz will open the door for the other fits to come in the near future

                                  Personally, I don't wear these too much higher than a standard rise pair. When I first got the 888, I would hike them up but they always ended up settling at my waist. So my advice would be to go with your standard waist measurement.

                                  Maybe someone else can chime in.  I might be doing it wrong [emoji14]

                                    There is no spoon! I mean, no “wrong”.

                                    My body shape lets me take a smaller waist in these than in the 777 and 666 which sit much lower.

                                      Mo,  If these sell well, we will do other cuts in 25oz MBMF. We were a little nervous in doing a load of cuts because a) we had to make the decision in March/April, when the world was going to shit and b) they're bloody expensive, so we wanted to see how they would be received.

                                        Getting two inches of stretch out of these will be a challenge.

                                          If it helps, I aimed for a waist 0.5" narrower than my currently well worn 888XHS.
