IH-888-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo

[aaronblitz]

@goosehd ok this is perfect because I can do all of this now. And agree I have purchased several pairs that I bought to fit just right from day one that end up getting stretched out over time and retired to my 'winter collection'

Great advice and making me feel like all my time measuring and comparing the sizing charts may have paid off.

Thank you

Great advice from @goosehd and @neph93
Eventually you could do a cold soak first to avoid breaking in problems a bit…

hahaha totally it was a good call the higher they go up the better they feel actually. They are not fighting with my boney hips

This is what I was seeing. Glad that helped. I actually size down one for 888s.

10 months 3 washes
My favorite denim thus far.
Weather was so nice in Denver today i took off my 25 ozers and put on shorts for a couple hours. Then the sun went down and I put my jeans back on straight away.

After two months, the first hand wash at 50 °. Surprisingly, I shook them once and they became soft again. These are the best jeans on this planet.

@A-V-D-77 couldn’t agree more!

This would be the highest I could pull them up before things get more 'tight' in other areas

I had it in size 32, they sat the same as you. I couldn't wear them because of the pressure and I bought them in size 33 and became happy

I found the top block to relax considerably with wear. The high rise almost doesn’t even feel high rise anymore unless I really pull them up. I’d need a belt to keep them there but love where they rest without a belt. Super comfy.

@goosehd Извините пока только осваиваюсь.

@Walery-Smirnoff Не беспокойтесь и добро пожаловать.

No worries and welcome.

Forum users tell me please, will soaking help? The new 888s in the top block are too loose. Both sides and front. You can see it in the photo above.

@Walery-Smirnoff looks hugely oversized in honestly. If possible, I'd exchange for a size or two down, because I don't think a wash is gonna get you the shrinkage that you need here
