@Mizmazzle not yet! I'm between a couple different cuts, need something for the warmer months and the 21oz denim is great for that!

Only place on the planet where a 21oz fabric is the summer option

[Danimal506]

@mclaincausey 21oz is great for Texas “winter”. When it’s 40 degrees one day and 80 the next haha

[FlavourFade]

@mclaincausey we have 20 degrees celsius (68f) the whole year at work so I could even wear xhs most days no problem. But the 21oz is breathable enough to be worn in german summers, besides the very hot days when you wear shorts anyway

Evening chores were special tonight. Before heading to the barn the following occurred:

Step 1: open package
Step 2: inspect, read accompanying literature, appreciate and put on.
Step 3: feed and water the chickens.
Step 4: collect the eggs

Thanks IH crew for the perfect hem and prompt delivery to Alberta Canada.

Shopping. At Rivet and Hide

Going to the playground

I know this has been mentioned before, but the pockets on these 822s are so perfect. The angle of the opening, the depth, the bags sewn under the denim….love em!!

[Danimal506]

@Mizmazzle I never considered it, but yes the angle of the pockets really helps with comfort.

I also really like that little triangle of denim in between the pocket and double front, I am excited to see how this section fades over time.

[Mizmazzle]

@Danimal506 yeah dude! The more I wear these things the more the little details start to reveal themselves. I actually love the top block on these. The fit is really comfortable through the thigh without being baggy.

[Danimal506]

@Mizmazzle I agree, I love the top block! I can sit down in any position and feel comfortable.

Great work pants for construction too. On the occasions I wear them to work. Who would’ve thought that work pants make good pants to wear to work? hahah

[Mizmazzle]

@Danimal506 haha...I've been so enamored with the high rise of the 888 i kind of forgot about the benefits of a lower rise....

[neph93]

@Danimal506 I can assure you it fades beautifully. That is one of the great things about this model. It fades in unusual and exciting ways due to the design.

I’ll post some pics of my retired W34’s when I can be arsed.

[SKT]

@neph93 no pressure but I’m looking forward to seeing yours because they were a big reason I picked up mine. Meanwhile mine are still inching along towards their first proper wash

[neph93]

@SKT its all about the inching with 21oz

[Danimal506]

@neph93 Hell yea!

[Danimal506]

I was out in the morning sun and got a couple detail pics of my 822s

[Mizmazzle]

@Danimal506 looks like you’re getting some nice evo on that fave triangle spot! Also elsewhere! Looking really good.

Another detail I’ve grown to love, is that the belt loops are larger. When a belt is worn, there is still that extra length that makes getting keychain hooks attached all the easier.

[Daniel San]

@Mizmazzle
are they ? have a great belt which is borderline for the belt loops of 555,666 I have in rotation.
will check immediately

[Mizmazzle]

@Daniel-San yeah. It’s not a wider top to bottom attachment. But the loop fabric is longer so the loops themselves are longer.

[Danimal506]

@Mizmazzle Yea they’re finally starting to give way to some fading. Trying to push them as much as I can before it gets too hot here in Texas.
