      Thanks for the advise. I am a little worried these are too tight. But I am sure they will break in eventually. I try to size for thighs and I considered getting the 33w. But the waist seemed to big. After wearing these 32w I am thinking of up sizing if I decide to get another pair in the future. I'll just have to wait and see how these break in.

        They look really good in, but I can see they are trim at the waist. You might want to wear them for until they are dirty and them give them a gentle cold wash. They will stretch out an inch with wear and on a 30 wash shouldn’t shrink more thay half an inch.

          Will these get soft over time or will they stay rigid or somewhat rigid?

            If they behave like other XHS, then soft as sweatpants….

                Double up on this denim? Even though I just bought the shinayakas, I might've become hooked on all the jeans..

                    This is true. How's your pair looking? Or are you wearing a different pair?

                      It getting little warmer so

                      I am a the moment bashing the hell out of the 555-01 21oz
                      For now..

                      Have so many jeans… to pick from

                      Sometime when I get bored of the 555 switch to NO LOT or may be 777 25oz.

                      I have the 21oz 777 mad black coming tomorrow.  In spring like to wear my overdyed more.

                      Think I will come back to these when it colder..

                      But there is sign of light grey effects showing on these XSHBB

                      Not only that I stop wearing other Brand’s I am no denim head, but Iron Heart only now.

                          Made it 3 more months… 1 initial soak and 1st wash today.

                          Has anyone with the XHSBB seen vertical (the Matrix) fades as yet? As per the indigo XHS pictured.

                              Glad I sent the 555s-sbg back and bought these instead.
                              Bigger in thighs… perfect!

                                  yep starting to see some Matrix (love that term lol) fades on my pair of 777. As with most denim photos, it looks more pronounced in person.

                                    Yeah!  Not not wearing mine just not wearing them near enough to see any sorta fading. Other than where i rub side of knees up against desk and door in truck.

                                        @Oaktavia i stopped wearing my 21oz sbgs after traveling internationally in a pair of 555-03 during the onset of covid, but your xhsbb gave me fomo on how awesome black denim evo’s! You’ve inspired me to wear the 555-03’s and/or xhsbb’s more often, so thank you  🙂

                                          @mikebarhoot yup just takes time just like other jeans. I think I'm around 70 wears and one super gentle soak with detergent to remove puppy dander.

                                          @RoxRocks86 well hell yeah! We inspire each other!
