    I wear size 32 in my 555-xhs which have a 16 inch waist. I'm trying to decide if I should order a size 31 (15 inch waist) or 32 (16 inch). I guess some people size down due to the higher rise, but the fact that they're unsanforized and the shrinkage after soaking makes me wonder if it's a bad idea going for size 31?

      These are going to behave very similar to your XHS where they stretch back out to approximately pre wash sizing with wear so I would pick a tag size that has the most similar actual starting waist to your 555's

          My first pair of 888... Maybe they're not the fit for me? 😄
          The waist is perfect but... I don't know haha. Keep them or return?
          Usually wear the 555s

            @cricca I think they look a lot like mine when they were new. It just takes time to settle down the denim and break them in. A soak will help a lot followed by a wash.

              Congrats, I think they're going to be great. A wash will bring them in nicely.

                        @Oaktavia at first glance I thought it was your 25oz IB, maybe this is the light 🙂

                        Looking very good

                          @tvaillant75 haha nice that's good though that means you see matching fades. Been wearing them every other day for 75 days each.

                              Getting used to the bigger thighs compared to 555, but the waist is too big I guess ...it really irritates me that the ass is hanging like this all the time.

                                @cricca From the angle of the photo, I don't think it looks bad. That is how jeans seem to sit on some folks. Not do downplay your thoughts, but I wanted to throw some encouragement your way. Looks good form my perspective.

                                  @cricca I agree it doesn't look bad at all. This is kind of how the 888s fit, unless you have a lot of thigh and junk to fill this particular trunk.

                                  Sometimes I look at photos from the rear of my 888s and am shocked that the front can look so slim and clean but then the back seems a bit frumpy.

                                  In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...
