    @weftyarn great googly moogly, your denim has evolved a vascular system! These sbgeez are looking genetically superior. Mine are at a mere 117 wears and not half as faded. Love em!

        @BloodOnTheBanjo Hopefully, around August/September next year, we will see these bad boys back in stock for the 888s

              I agree! I'm rocking around 250 wears on my most heavily worn pairs and don't have a single comb to speak of (but then I sit at a desk for most of the time I'm wearing them).

              Take the dive...

                Thanks @Oaktavia and @EdH !
                These are my chopperin’ hard rock pants. The black hides the grease well. Maybe the combs come from my drumming? Any drummers here have similar effects? One thing I’ve noticed about riding motorcycles is the heavy butt crotch crease that wears pretty fast. These are fraying already unfortunately, you can see that white streak there. I think I need to wash more

                            Hi!

                            I’ve got a pair of size 33 14 oz bb 777s that fit great other than too low a rise for my taste. I found a new without tags pair of 21 oz black 888s in size 31. The waist is small but everything else looks good. Should I buy? Will they fit?

                            My size 33 777 have an advertised measured waist of 34. These 888s are a 31. But should hit higher… I’ve also heard these gain a lot in the waist from stretch…

                              Get the measurements (make sure you know how the measurements are done) and then compare with your 777's. Anything else is conjecture.....

                                    @goosehd yeah, I’ve looked at the measurement charts. They’re all fine except waist as I said - so just looking for the real world appreciated stretch in the waist.

                                      @RJScheuerle We aren’t able to help you unless we have some measurements which is why @Giles suggested measuring your current jeans by the Ironheart Method. I posted the video on how to perform those measurements.

                                      Once you have that in hand (measurements done the IH way), then we can give you some guidance on if they would fit or not.

                                      How much will the jeans stretch…maybe an inch to 1.5 inches. Will they fit? Unknown without some baseline information.

                                        …also because these jeans have had two releases, then you need to get the measurements from the seller. Your current 777’s have probably stretched with time and wear which is why you need to measure them. The waist of the pair of jeans needs to be measured so that you know how much smaller they are.

                                        You also need to keep in mind that they will sit higher on your waist. Do you have a bit of a stomach and does it measure larger than where you currently wear your 777 jeans? If so, how much bigger.

                                        If that difference between 777’s and the 888’s you want is larger than an inch, I would be cautious. Larger than 1.5 inches and I would probably say they won’t work.

                                        But as Giles has stated this is all conjecture without measurements.

                                          Yeah makes sense! I decided to pass! I realistically probably need a 32 from looking at models sizes on iron hearts retailers in combo with the measured sizes.

                                          I’m 167, 5’9” and usually like a 16.5-17 inch waist if lower rise. 16ish can work if higher. I’m usually more limited by the thigh. Need 12.2ish and can’t taper too strongly - 2 inches down from crotch I need at least 11.5.

                                          Really want to try this black 21 oz and don’t love the low rise of my 777s so I was trying to make this work! Too often times though I’ve made the too tight of a thigh mistake! Waist is forgiving. Thighs are not.

                                          Guess I’ll wait till the restock this fall and keep fading my 14 oz 777s for now!
