Well done @Zein1505! Those look amazing. And what a big contrast post-wash.

How long before these things soften up?

[Giles]

How long is a piece of string?  It depends on what you do in them…

I'd say it takes about two months of daily wear around the house to really get things going. Although I practically live in mine and sleep in them too.

Purchased Size 36 May 2021. ~15 wears in, no wash. For reference, I'm 6'2 and 215 lbs. Unhemmed currently, will hem eventually. These are hella thick/protective but surprisingly soft and comfortable. 888 fit is interesting - not sure I love the medium/high rise but the roomy top block and taper are much appreciated. Can't wait to properly break them in!

I've dropped about 25lbs this year and went from a size 32 to a size 29, dropping below 30 for the first time in my life.  This has been exciting and expensive, as I had to re-purchase a bunch of denim.  I have to admit that it's fun to start the fading process all over again.

Looking good

[Oaktavia]

Looking great @Paul9221 . Is there any IHSH shirt that doesn't pair well with XHSib?!

[Paul9221]

Thanks, guys!

@Oaktavia if there is, I haven't found it!

While wearing these and Wesco chukka, I just went through multiple additional security checks from TSA in the Atlanta airport, culminating in a very thorough full body rub down. Agent said I think it’s because your jeans are so thick. I wasn’t in a hurry so I just smiled under my mask and thought “bet the forum will get a kick out of this.”

The UHR is legendary for that. XHS works too. I’ve also seen what Wesco’s do to the scanning machines. They light up like Times Square [emoji38]
