      You can size down on the 888 fairly easily and it will slim the cut down quite a lot IMO

        Good to see you here mate. Was wondering how you were getting on a while back. Hope you’re well.

        @jordanscollected they do look slim but @spitfiredealer is right.

        On the left my W33 IH-888-XHSib (W33). On the right my IH-888-XHS (W34). Photos taken a few days apart and both iterations come up with very similar dims. Only a decimal point or two in variation on all measurements according to the charts. The model @Dishelveled also lacks my ummmm…. manly curves (read: chunky arse)[emoji51][emoji23] so can wear them pretty slim I’d imagine.

        Of course, time will tell. Measurements should be up today or tomorrow. I’m not excited at all. Honestly. Oh no. Not a bit. Absolutely not glued to my phone screen in childlike anticipation.

            Glad to hear it you’re keeping well.

            I’m really want them, but currently undecided. Not a great time and I have a couple of other items I want.

              Thanks to you both @Dishelveled and Rueben for the details and side by side pics. The slimmed down version in these cargos will look great. I bet these sell out mucho rapido

                          Front rise is getting higher and higher on the 888 iterations. I find myself wishing these had regular cargo or work pant dimensions with the taper. They still are extremely tempting.

                            Following on from Appfaff, how does it shrink?

                            I’m comparing measurements and behaviour (?) with my IH-888-RE, for what it’s worth.

                                    Some help with sizing please.

                                    My only IH denim I have are the 666s 21oz in a 32.  I understand that that the rise on these whipcords are much higher.  Somebody here mentioned that it’s easy to size down on the 888s.  It looks like Alex sized down compared to other styles.

                                    Not sure if I should get a 33 which would be similar in waist to the 666 or size down to a 32 in these
                                    whipcords???  Opinions appreciated.

                                      Look closely at a comparison of the thigh measurements. That will be where the sticking point may be in sizing down, i should think. The 666 is a much tighter top block and skinnier thigh, so if you are skinny enough that the 666 isn’t tight, you may be able to size down at least one in an 888 style like these. Bear in mind that you can probably stand a smaller waist measurement also, because these will hit up closer to your actual waist.

                                        Thanks for your input.

                                        I can squeeze just enough to get into the 666s.  Looking at the whipcord sizing, I can probably size down one.

                                          No problem! One other thing that bears mentioning: the denim of your 666 stretches a lot more easily than whip cord. These will not stretch at all.

                                            Size down as long as the thigh allows for it as @sabergirl says.
