IH-888-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo

My 888’s w a little over a year of rotational wear. My favorite fit
-
@worn2fade this was my first pair of XHS and when I requested hemming, I forgot to account for length shrinkage. I went with my normal 31" inseam and I think it's around 30" now after all the washes. It is my cleanest break out of my pairs and I really enjoy the look once I noticed what I had done. I am also 5'-11" and traditionally target and inseam range of 31-32".
My 1955s are the only pair unhemmed purposely for a Tokyo cuff.

@catdad1
Clean breaks for the win! Less break makes my short legs look longer. -
@Johnnyutah247 what are the black boots in the bottom pic?
-
@wjw rolling dub trio Casper boots in a teacore horsehide from rivet and hide. Most comfortable boots I've worn.
-
@Johnnyutah247 ahh I see what you mean! Yours look exceptionally clean.
Looks like @Denimhead-0 & @catdad1 have that perfect inseam that lies exactly where it needs to as well.
These breaks look awesome, I just may consider this for my 888-XHSib once they drop. My current 888-XHS are at a 33.5” inseam (hemmed to 34.5” and after soak got my desired 33.5”) - with this I can do a clean, short double cuff or have some stacks that are non-excessive. I’m reallyyyy digging that clean break though honestly.

@schraiber Do you mind if i ask you about your height and weight ? to get an idea on what size i should get based on how those jeans fit you.

@schraiber said in IH-888-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo:
@douwab6 I'm 5'11'', 170lbs. For the record, I ended up selling my 34s because they were simply too big---just an excessive amount of bunching under my belt.
And for reference, I’m 5’11 200lbs & I rock the 34’s!

@schraiber Thank you very much! i am about the same weight, but i think i'm gonna go with w34, i am more in to saggy and baggy fits, yours look way to clean and perfect.
