Because there will be shrink and stretch of the waist band what should the target be? Actual IH waist measurement? Slightly bigger or smaller? Thanks

[goosehd]

@CosmoSix5 Actual IH waist measurement. Size to fit out of the bag and you should be good. They will shrink, it will be difficult to wear, then they will stretch back out to previous dimensions (possibly bigger).

Big shout out to Ben who looked out a tag36 which were 37.5. Soaked them and managed, somehow, to get them back on. I’m really happy with the fit. I have 888UHR which I had to admit to myself aren’t good on me.
I have been wearing them to work in, what is for Scotland, very hot weather. I own a coffee shop and stand in front of a hot, steamy espresso machine all day…..it hasn’t been a pleasant!

Okay...new to me 777 XHS. I went straight off the measurements and rolled the dice on this size. I was concerned about the tightness in the thighs but just wearing them for about 20 minutes now they seem to be much more relaxed.

@j6550 Looking good!
They will only get better Enjoy!

@Shaun Thanks buddy. There is definitely something about having a pair of jeans that you have to lean into for that perfect fit.

If I want a finished 38" waist what should be my target? The stretch/shrink is hurting my brain

@CosmoSix5

I'd ask for the biggest pair of 36s they have. The waist will shrink but stretch out to at least pre-soak/wash measurements.

If they have a pair of 36s with a 37.5" waist, they should be perfect, assuming the thigh measurements work as well.

The 38s start with a 38.8 waist which is already too big... not an option in my opinion.

@branpureza big 36 ordered. 37.4"

I bought the 777-25oz one year ago. The first 3 weeks were kinda rough but then the jeans became really comfortable and are now my absolute favorite pair of jeans.

Ready to half a$$ the invitational lol. My first XHS. Buttoned up in less than 5 minutes without tools Folded back up for raw proof email. I knew they'd be tight but the next tag size was to big. How's the look?

@CosmoSix5 fit looks bang on Chris. A 777 convert?!

[CosmoSix5]

@Gavin666 I got a steal on a white pair of 777 and they looked better than I remembered. Losing about 60lbs helped in that regard. I still prefer the rise of the 555 but the 777 fits my style really well. Thanks for the compliment too!

[CosmoSix5]

I need to re-evaluate how I see measurements. I like these way more than I thought I would (777)

[branpureza]

@CosmoSix5 fit looks mint bro!

[CosmoSix5]

@branpureza thanks!

[twin]

@CosmoSix5 Fit looks spot on.

@CosmoSix5 How long did it take to dry on you?

Thanks twin. It took a long time. That's my unscientific answer lol. Over 6 hours and weren't totally dry when I took them off. About 90%. But it was bedtime lol
