IH-888S-21od - 21oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - OD'd

Maybe I am not as lean as I thought. Just measured the waist and it has stretched to comfortable 94 cm. Not bad for a size 34.
I am really happy with this pair of pants. I even look forward slipping into it in the morning. Don't remember the last time I felt like this with another pair.

They look very good. Funnily enough I went through something similar. Bought W34 in January, and the stretch is meaningful. I think what happens is that you have the classic 21oz stretch plus what the overdying has taken out of the fabric. End result they stretch a whole lot everywhere.
Decided that I could go down to W33 and when the restock came I pounced, figuring I could just flip my W34 for $$$ on here. They where tight at first but worked out just right after the stretch came in. In the meantime I forgot to put the W34’s up for sale.
Anyways, summer came around and I ate and drank, and ate and drank and the W33’s are currently too small. Luckily the W34’s are now perfect [emoji23]

Really interested in these, but worried about the thigh.
Anyone have a size 32 and can measure thigh from crotch seam then straight outside using Blue Owl method?
-
You’ll get about .5” in the thigh. I can’t help you with the W32 but I have the IH-888-XHSib in 33 and these as well and they end up about the same with wear.
Do you have thigh measurement on ur 33?
Are you saying ill get half an inch in stretch?
-
The overdyed 21oz stretches a lot. I’d estimate up to half an inch (.5”). I can check my w33 For you but not for a few days.
Thanks mate, ill go true to size then

Funny story.
I wore these as well at the airport when we started our trip. I had my new ih belt on me and headed to the security. Packed everything into the box and went to the scanner. On the way it came to my mind that I forgot to put my belt into the box, wanted to turn around but then the security guy told me that I could leave it on. Went into the scanner, monitor shows a red area at the waist area. Sure thing, with this thick belt. So, I have to go to another security guy. I have to undress my belt. He looks at it. Wow. That's a thick belt. So he starts fingering the belt, looking for hidden stuff. Then he approaches me. Now I have to check your groin. Super I think. He starts squeezing my thighs and my crotch area and says, hey that's a thick jeans. That's a real cowboyjeans. I say it is, indeed. It's 21 oz and think, now stop groping me.
He says aha. But the fact that it is so thick makes the process of the feel checkup harder. Some seconds later he says: but I think everything is fine… What did I learn. Never leave your belt on.
