    Agreed with the vox pop, the 888’s look good but the 555’s suit your frame better. As long as you are happy with the waist and thigh now I’d say go for it. After the soak you’ll find them uncomfortable and tight but a few days of wear and you’ll be good. They’ll stretch out to where they are now, possibly a little more.

          I don't mean to gatekeep people who like a more roomy pant but the 888 is usually for those who can't fit into anything else LOL.  If I could fit into a 666 or 555, I would be wearing those.

          Blanket-line all the things!!!

                For me certainly, a sized down 888 allows me to have a fit similar to the 555 or 777 which I struggle with due to my Neanderthal genes and having played rugby since I could walk.

                That being said, I’m entering the upper end of my 40’s, and having a more relaxed leg has it’s own appeal now, hence the size up on my new pair of 888-XHS. I’ll try and get fit pics p tomorrow.

                  Here we go… somewhat relaxed fit compared to my other pairs of 888, which is just what I was looking for.

                            Says the guy who kills it in 555's… I can't even wear 555's (although I did try very hard for a while), so I'm the jealous one  😉

                                @neph93 looks still very fitted on you. Great fit!

                                I wear my 888 a way more relaxed, which I’m happy with  😉

                                The 888xhs is my next purchase for sure

                                  That is the great thing about this cut… very versatile, very flexible. My W33's 888-XHSib fit me the same way 555's fit @Sam, for example. The waist is trim but not uncomfortable unless I put on weight. These fit perfectly at the waist. Comfortable without being loose. But I could size up, wear with a built and go very relaxed.

                                  I feel like the 888 cut and the XHS denim are a good match. The weight of the denim and the nature of the fit work well together.

                                  Thanks for your appreciation! Yours too @Paul9221

                                        …wow! Four pages back on the 'bottoms' forum site! Must be the 'grandpa cut'! :D...hence...

                                        ...picking up another cut, the 888-XHS! That'll be my 3rd pair of Iron Hearts, 634XHS, 555XHS and now the 888XHS's.

                                        ...just may retire all other jeans in my closet. This should take me down the road quite a ways in the jeans dept.

                                        ...I'll be adding to the 'People's Report Card' on these in the near future. Ciao for now. 😉

                                          I prefer the term "massive thighs cut" 😃  Welcome to the club!  As someone who started with the 634, I think that you'll like these.
