      Have you had an stretch in the waist past the pre soak measurements! I’m in between sizes and really need about 35in on the waist and the 36 I’m almost positive I won’t be happy with. I took the 888sOD in 35 fit well.

        @gpag:

        That might be at the outer limits of what you can expect but doable. The XHS won’t stretch as readily as the 21oz but you’ll get an at least inch from post soak. Bare in mind that these don’t shrink the whole inch in the waist. More like half an inch.

        Edit: my advice would be to measure the waist of your 888S-OD as they are now, the same way IHUK measure, then work it out from there.

                Will there n’en any more runs of these, or was the most recent restock the final one?

                        Man, those look so great!  If they smell, wash them, otherwise I'd probably keep going.

                          I would suggest 2  nights in freezer , continue for two months , and followed by a hand wash.

                          I think few more months of wear will make a difference !!

                                No reason not to wash. Lots of reasons you should wash. No brainer if you ask me.

                                    And for what it's worth, putting them in the freezer is utterly pointless.

                                            That’s the good news😎😎 I love my pair and would like another pair or even one sized down one.
