@Patina
The knees are tough for sure. I kneel/squat whenever I get the chance at work, picking up paintbrushes, pencils, fallen papers, etc. It can be a chore to cross my legs in these if I'm at all sweaty.

Wearing them now on day 83.

Loving the 555XHSIB. Let me know if I post too much.

I just can't stop gazing at this fabric and cut.

@neph93 What jacket or vest are you wearing here?

That is a vest and it is the IHV-21. You’ll find it in the Extinct section. Type III vest with a priest’s collar made of the old 18oz and bonded with red felt. Brass snaps for shits and giggles. I love it. Couple of old pics from IG:

Nice!

Great foundation for a cracking pair of jeans down the line. Love all the big fat folds and creases.

There's so much stuff coming out that I want this fall. These jeans are high on the list. Guess it's good I've been working a lot of overtime lately.

Wash last night

Wear 88

I only own a pair of the IH-555-16 Vintage and thinking these 25oz will be my next purchase. Both are sanforised so does that mean I can go with the same size in both or do I need to take into account the extra weight?

I like the idea I won't have to take into account the initial soak, but still want to get a good fit straight out of the gate as these will be my go to for the whole of winter.

They will shrink as although they are sanforised, they are unwashed. The 888-XHSib thread contains some good documentation of what to expect, but you’re looking at 0.5-1” in the waist and leg and about .3” in the thigh.

If I were you I’d use the “Compare” function on the website to check the measurements up against one another. Factor in the shrink and you should have an answer.

Another option is to measure your 16oz pair as they are now and publish here. Someone (possibly me), will be able to advise on the right size for the XHS based on that.
