@Chad:

Should I soak them before getting them hemmed?

Yes

@Jett129:

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

Thanks for the advise I’ll do as you suggest

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.

@neph93 You have to know I’m real happy for you. I can’t imagine you not loving these. The only things in life we regret are the ones we don’t do.

@Filthy:

They are incredible.

Finally some photos. Thanks man!

Does the contrast stitching appear loud in reality? I'm not sure what to make of the way the really dark fabric with that stitching looks in the photos.

@Filthy  now you have to do what @Beatle  would say ( BUST THEM )

[neph93]

@Filthy standing out in the snow in sliders and a cut off tee? You could be Norwegian mate. Jeans look great and everyone likes a bit of girth  Looking forward to post soak impressions.

Those look great, Mike! I’m still holding out for an 888 out of regular XHS. This is too similar to my pronto double indigo 25oz. The measurements are really perfect, though.

Thank you sir, thank you very much. I think a bit of irresponsible acquisition now and again is a necessary thing. It's all about the balance.
