this new website design i personally find it not so easy to search within thread.
anyhoo, just bought a pair, waiting to arrive.
I wear a size 28
My 777 xhs was a bitch to put on when I first bought it, now they are little bit easier to put on and I haven't washed/soaked them [dreading it]. In hindsight, i should have may be gotten size 29.
I was looking at these 634 XHSib and realized size 28 measurements more or less fits me better. So i ended up buying a size 28 again. Fingers crossed.
Anyone who wears this size can comment on Shrinkage [hot/cold]? I am planning on Soaking them in warm water as soon as I get them to get the shrinkage out of the way, provided they are not too tight on me, then it would be cold soak.

@hillbilly Everyone seems to have their own variation but for me, the thighs are always the key with denim that will shrink...the waist will stretch out usually but if I try the XHS on preshrink and the thighs are tight I know I'll be buggered after I soak them. I also wear mine hard for a few days before I soak the XHS just to loosen up the button holes and then give it a soak in the tub in as hot water as possible. From then on, they get cold-washed in the machine when needed.
I hope the sizing works out for you!! -
@Salted-Racer Thanks for a quick reply. Good reminder about the button holes, I thought I would have blisters on my fingers when i tried 777, i remember I had to use screwdriver to slowly stretch them first time. May be i will wear the 634 a day or two before I soak.

Hi all - I'm looking to get a pair of XHS IB but not sure which cut! My current two pairs of IH denim are the 634 indigo and 888 SBG. I think both look good with the boots. The 888s I think work a little better with the shoes so maybe those are a little more versatile. Obviously it's just a preference but welcome any suggestions on going 634 or 888 for the XHS! (Posting in both of these forums)
