      Alex, I'm considering the 888 in a couple different denims (21oz, 18oz, and UHR). Does IH account for variances in stretch in its sizing? In other words, would you order the same size in each denim, or go smaller for a stretchier denim like the 21oz vs. larger on the stiffer, tighter-woven UHR?

        @JohnM

        We always advise on a approximate 1" stretch with our sanforised and one-washed denim. Unfortantly it is not an exact science.

        Rather than by tag size alone, one will want to order the tag sizes based on the actual waist measurement, factoring in how the denim will behave.

        The 888s-21 and 888s-18 are both going to stretch approxinatly 1" in the waist with wear. The UHR is going to shrink when you first wash / soak it (you have to do this before wear) and then with wear will stretch back out to pre-wash sizing.

        I would measure the waist of something that fits you well using our how we measure guide to lock in an actual measurement that works for you and factor in all of the above.

          110 wears 3 light hand washes. I’ll do a 21oz 3-way compare soon.

            @WhiskeySandwich dude those are looking perfect! A lot more contrast than I often expect on a 21oz pair — keep that shit up!

              @popvulture yeah more than I thought too, def in part thanks to the overcast lighting. Sometimes they pop, sometimes they look super dark still.

                  @Oaktavia thanks homie! Overcast really is the perfect lighting for denim. Love how these have turned out. They took forever to start and now they’re really picking up.

                                I haven’t been around here much recently, but thought I’d post these since I think they’re ready for retirement (the repairs have repairs, which also have repairs). Particularly love the roping on these. Hope everyone is well!
