@Crease nice to see you have a pair of these. They fade beautifully over time.

You welcome Bro

@Oaktavia @Jett129 @Kasi

I’m loving them already. Nothing beats 25oz in my book. Mo made it happen and I’m stoked!! Really love that they are pretty relaxed in fit for a 555. Like my 888 XHS and my 666 SBG had a love child and it’s soul is black!!!

[Jett129]

@Mizmazzle I’m pretty sure it was these or it may have been another XHS Denim,andI think it was Giles who said that the sewers were having a difficult time with the denim,which accounts for the relaxed fit you speak of.

[Mizmazzle]

Yeah. Normally I think the 555 would be on the tight side for me. Looking at the measurements for the other cuts of XHSbb, I think these 555s are spot on for my tastes, even though my many pairs of 888s are incredible. The 888 XHSbb look too big in the thigh and top block.

[Oaktavia]

@Mizmazzle glad they worked out man. Stoked to see another pair in the wild.

[Mizmazzle]

Ok, did the fun stuff!! Wore em last night for the first time out for the wife’s b day dinner!! Safe to say it’s

[Mizmazzle]

Here’s the fit after the 60 min hot soak. Got some nice tightening up all around. I think I can get another 1/2” of length shrinkage if I warm machine wash them. I have two concerns at the moment:

1. Scared of marbling. I know a full soak before wash can help alot with that. But…still scared.

2. Honeycomb shift? Is it real?? Eventually I’ll need to wash em. If I wear em hard for awhile then wash em and get that shrink, will the combs shift? I’ve heard of such a thing but never personally experienced it.
