      Okay cool. Do you think i might get atleast an inch of stretch in the waist?

      Im asking because, I just got a pair in the mail and they are the same size as my indigo 888s, though they feel a little tight. I remember buying my 888s on the tighter side, and they stretched out a lot, maybe even a little more than I would have wanted them too. Just want to make sure that these will give enough, I cannot imagine being happy with the next size up.

        You should get an inch without a problem. As said, may take a little more effort than with the 21oz, but it will get there.

          Can confirm. Just keep moving and grooving in your SBGs & you’ll get that stretch.

              Just snagged the last pair of 32s. Hemmed and sent out immediately by the boys and arrived at my door the next day. Excellent service and I couldn’t be happier with the fit. 2nd pair of 888. Never change.

              Please excuse the exposed navel, it was for a fit check on another forum.

                Congratulations. Great denim. And a tasty 888 for too.

                    Whenever possible, I go heavier.  25oz has been my favorite, hands down. 21oz is the next best thing available at the moment.

                    Blanket-line all the things!!!

                      That was the first thought that struck me. Why buy 14oz if you can buy 21oz?

                        I was going to add the caveat based on hot climate but I've seen people in ridiculously hot climates rocking 21oz with big smiles on their faces 🙂

                        I should add that 21/23oz UHR is my second favorite after 25oz XHSib. Almost forgot and I just changed out of them!

                          The word is that the relatively tight weave of the 14oz means it isn’t that the 21oz is as good an option in warmer climates. I can’t confirm that personally, bit it has been said more than once.

                            I am excited! I probably haven't had a black pair of jeans 25yrs.
