    @CMastri - great fit, and great tee too! (my personal all time favorite band of all time)

    Great to see some updates on this model. I'm seriously considering it for my warmer weather pair. I'm starting to concede that the 888 might just be the better cut for me…

    @Giles and/or @Alex and/or IHUK crew - how much shrink is there in this denim? Description says one-washed, so I expect little to no significant shrinkage? Thanks

      No shrinkage if you wash sensibly

          No pics but just wanted to weigh in with my thoughts on these. I picked up a pair during a recent visit to London (Rivet & Hide) and I am really happy with them. I have a pair of IH-1955S and love them but there’s just a little too much volume below the knee to wear them with anything but boots. The 888S fits perfectly, a little less rise and a little more taper but still plenty of room in the seat and thighs. Also loving the 14oz denim, it’s a nice change from the heavier stuff. My best fitting pair of jeans yet. Oh and R&H was awesome, they are good people.

            Got these in time for Florida and they are great.

            Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
            Well, I have others.

              Picked a pair of these up today at Rivet and Hide…size 36. With a bit of stretch in the waist With wear they will fit perfectly

                That is probs the best fitting pair of jeans I’ve seen on you @Stuart.T. Imho, of course. Brilliant!

                    Thanks @neph93 @Dion 888 were the 2nd IH jeans I ever bought, but I bought a size too large and the waist was way too big when it stretched out so I sold them on. I've stuck with 555 ever since.

                    As these are intended as a summer Jean, the extra leg room wad preferable for me. I tried the 14oz 555 today as well, they fit well, with a higher rise than any of my other 555..

                    This 14oz initially feels heavier than my 16oz vintage denim. I love how papery and crisp it is at the moment. I'm going to go against my usual rules and wear these for a couple of months before I soak them. If I soaked them now I don't think I'd ever be able to do up the top button again.

                    I think I might need a type III in this denim too, but I'll live with these for a while first.

                      Just got these in while I was on vacation and I’m giving them a run today. MY GOODNESS! This denim feels amazing; it feels more substantial than 14oz.

                        @Jordanxbuffer my thoughts exactly. This definitely feels more substantial to the touch than my 16oz vintage 555s. I haven't soaked them yet as I want to stretch them with a few weeks of wear.

                        It's a very dark indigo too, so I'm hoping for some high contrast fades.

                            I picked up a pair of 777S-142’s with the intention of those being the denim I wore on the hottest days of summer, but after comparing the 142 denim with the 16oz Vintage denim, I think the 16oz wins in that regard. I love the 142 denim regardless, but I think my 16oz 666’s will be my hot-weather jeans and I’ll wear the 777’s when the temperature is below 90 degrees Fahrenheit.

                              Wow. Does this 14oz ever stretch?? I bought a snug fitting waist in the hope of an inch stretch, give or take a couple of 8's. I've worn them for a few days now  and no stretch yet. Ive chosen not to soak them yet either, as that might render them unwearably until they have a presoak stretch.

                                Idk. I have to size up for thighs so I’ll trade you for the tighter waist. Lol.

                                  I noticed the same thing on my 777’s, I don’t think I’ve gotten much stretch with those either. The waist is still snug after several wears, it’s manageable but I probably could have sized up one. I just assumed there would be a pretty reasonable amount of stretch.

                                    I've always wanted to own a pair of jeans that I never wash. This may be that pair. I like the idea of seeing every bit of living on them.

                                      Do it. I’ll be sending mine in for a waist reduction shortly due to my size up. Are yours crocking a lot?

                                        Problem with not washing a pair ever,  is unless you really don't get a fuck about wearing filthy jeans you kinda end up babying them.

                                          I’ve loved washing my UHR; they become more alive with each wash.
