^ the classic Neph/Giles double whammy in action [emoji1]

  That was great.

This drop has been a serious test of willpower so far.  Just having to keep focussed on the Lefty OD carrot dangling but a few days away… ;;_)

@Jett129  @mpukas - I don't remember who posted this but he's my hero-after soaking put nickels in the buttonholes.

This will also be my first 888 from IH. Pretty dang close to my favorite 633 cut.

I’ve finally pulled the trigger and ordered a pair so I’m about to join the 25 oz gang, prepared for blue blistered fingers

Really love the colour can’t wait to get hold of them

Should I soak them before getting them hemmed?

If soak before you hem,it takes the shrinkage guess work out of the equation.

Ummm, yes. According to The Borg, it’s futile anyway [emoji1]Sized down to 33 too. Should be interesting…

[Paul9221]

Nice!  We can't have a show without you!  I also sized down. Will be an experience for sure.

Yeah it was always a losing battle. My plan was to have them sell out in the first 48hrs so temptation would be removed. When that didn’t happen I knew I was fekked.

Issues of money and numbers of jeans aside, I only have one pair of XHS and they are properly battered. So that’s a good enough reason for me.

That was exactly my plan with the 555xhsib
I also lost after a few days.. LOL

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

I got mine!  All I can say is hurry up and get a pair before they sell out! They are incredible. They are so heavy and stiff! I love them.

The package was quite girthy.

So girthy.

I didn't bother ironing them. In the soak, extra hot. I put some Red Wing oil on the patch.
