          We have a fever. +30. 25 oz is not an easy test) But at the same time, jeans give a feeling of armor and security.

                By the way guys, no one has come across such a phenomenon? Left front pocket. The one with the watch pocket. It is tighter for the palm. I already heard about it from another denimhead

                  I’ve never noticed one pocket tighter than the other. Suppose it’s possible for the one with the coin/ watch pocket to have a bit more fabric and feel tighter at first. Everything is so rigid at first though haha. Wear em a lot and you’ll be surprised at how quickly they become soft and comfy.

                      @Mizmazzle i can relate! I didn’t feel a difference as well.. doesn’t mean it isn’t there but maybe it’s so minimal that i don’t feel it. If you think it’s a huge difference i would shoot the guys at IHUK a message. If i may be so free to say that.

                          @Heavy_blue ha. That actually came from a typo. I meant to write “take the drive” once and @endo i think spotted it. But it suited how I ended up falling headfirst into IH fandom, so I adopted it from myself. 😉

                            After 2 weeks of wear. bolts now fly in by themselves when fastening. And for the first time, I buttoned it up with the help of a fucking mother)))

                              Only 7 wear-days so far and these are already very soft and comfortable. Does this keep going? After how they started I'm shocked at how comfy they've become already.

                                @EdH i have a XHS in several cuts and a roomier fit gives me more comfort then for example a 555 or so.

                                  @EdH XHS is the bees knees. Just you wait after a month. IMO no other IH denim conforms to the body and evolves from rigid to soft more than the XHS

                                    @EdH They will become softer and have often been described as a pair of your favourite sweatpants.

                                      Fairly new to the selvedge world and first pair of XHS, incredible denim. Did a prelim 30 minute wash @ 40C, and only got half an inch out of the waist, is this a fairly average amount or should I do another hot soak to get it all out? Fairly happy with the fit either way

                                          @Leadley I'd leave it there. The fit looks great.

                                          @flannel-slut @goosehd Incredible stuff. I'm gobsmacked really at how great the XHS denim is, only 8 wears in.

                                            My 888 25oz is starting to show the first signs of honeycombs. The denim is dense, so the folds break cotton and paint well.
