      Hope I did not sound pompous. I only say this because I mistakenly bought the wrong size to many times trying to make 888s wear like the 1995s. I honestly love both and now have more appreciation foe their differences.

      Now, I have an IRONHEART!!

        Apologies in advance, my spirit animal is Cliff Clavin 😆 wanted To clarify, my thinking. sizing dilemmas can be a real struggle sometimes. They can be pricey. Like gambling make rules and set minimums. In order of importance. For me Minimum FR 12” combined rise FR+RR 29, minimum waist 17.3, minimum thigh 13.3. I try not to experiment under my minimum requirements, I will sometimes but not typically.

        Digressing on previous statement 888s vs 1955s, if a slimmer looking silhouette is considered a smarter fit then 888s is indeed smarter, but still a relaxed style.

        I truly hope this helps anyone struggling with size decisions.

          @TinMan Dude yea, combined rise was a big thing when I was figuring out the 888. I def have max/mins for everything. It's why my 888's fit damn near the same as my 777's, except for the rise/waist. 777's hang off my ass, which isn't bad in the summer. I love the way my 888's fit though, it's def the perfect cut for me. The hardest part is figuring how much stretch to expect.

            @WhiskeySandwich fo sure Stretch is tricky. I have both 36 and 35, I can wear both but have to soak the size 36 more often due to stretching slightly past my maximum.

              @Fades-for-future Here they are! It's been a little over three years with my 888s, and they get better each day. I wear them about 5 times a week in the Fall/Winter and not so much in the Spring/Summer; only when I do more leisure activities or am indoors most of the day. They're some tough faders, and it's something I've grown to really love about these jeans. I picked them up at SEPDX and knew nothing about IH before my visit. I told the gentleman at the shop I wanted a heavy pair of denim, and he whipped these bad boys out. So glad he suggested them:

                          Any hint if a restock for 888 in 21ib or 21od are also coming soon before I pull the trigger here?

                            Glad I pulled the trigger on the SBGs

                            Use it or lose it.

                              @Tobi no 21ib on the horizon. The OD will follow these in the coming weeks, but no firm date yet

                                      Going to get a pair of these to wear without turn ups. I’m a 30” leg, any advice on hemming length? Do I need an extra half an inch for creasing/minor shrinkage, or just go my usual 30”. All advice appreciated!

                                            Not much inseam shrinkage based on my experience. Maybe 0.5” max after a hot soak….but not enough to notice when worn.
