IH-555-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo

[Skrietfranvildmarken]

That’s a problem I have with most of my pants. If I hade sized up to 32” they would have been to loose in the waist.
How should I put it. Not all men are created equal

@Skrietfranvildmarken I think you will be happy you sized down in the long run. The denim is so thick that it will relax all over. You will have your best fitting pair in a month or so.

@Skrietfranvildmarken I think that's a glorious fit! And I agree with what @Filthy said. It may be a little painful in the beginning, but afterwards it's going to be so good! In that regard it's a lot like, ehm, good whisky…

Still giving them hell….

[BulletPattern]

First day of wearing these and it's been hell. Can barely button them up, putting on my boots made me feel like I was wearing an Arthritis Suit and i'm going commando and sleeping in them to stretch these bastards out as they are too tight with pants. I really hope it's all worth it in the end.

Do couple of squats, or maybe bike riding….

@BulletPattern glad to hear you’re having the proper XHS experience. Just gotta suck it up for a week or so then you’ll be rolling, and you’ll be so glad you did in about 6 months

[BulletPattern]

At the cost of these I'm fully invested in this for the long haul. Such a beautiful fabric.

Jeans are finally softening up nicely and I can nearly tie my shoelaces. I'm glad i sized down, as much as it's been a journey the fit is now really lovely.

Yeh definitely agree always a struggle when the warmer weather comes especially working on site . Beats the rain and the wind ️

Just got this pair in yesterday. I've been wearing 555s for years but this if my first go at the 25oz… wow these things are no joke! Hoping my legs do end up battered and bruised by the end of the break in period!
