@AdamJ BOOM!

888 is the best cut. Can't wait to get these!

@svenz I copped a pair. Looking forward to trying the 888 cut.

Mine arrived - a quick first impression.
Things that are great:

• The fabric (I love the back, I got a this version rather than OD because of the extreme slubbing at the back)
• The fit (mine need to stretch out, but other than that, very good)
• They have a leather patch (Ok its sown all the way way around but its a much nicer patch than the lightweight jean patches)

Things I don't like:

• They don't come with a back pocket paper thing (like the 14, 21, 21/23, 25oz)!!!

@will6er it's called "back pocket flasher". Surprised that they didnt come with it, assumed all IH jeans had it.

Not all jeans have a flasher, I am afraid. It's a oddity of time, that is harder than you would think to fix

[will6er]

@moskiitto Its a back pocket flasher (and based on this mornings break in so far 0.5 inches) away from a perfect slubby jean.

Only day 2 in these but man oh man, what a fabric! I love it! It bleeds so my hands look indigo all the time but who cares

After a monster day-1 yesterday I went from 43 cm flat (snug on me) to 45 cm flat. They recovered some this morning but it is a record in stretch for me. Couldn’t be happier about the size.

Thank you @JamesB for picking these for me!

@Sunnergren I’m on day 1 and couldn’t be more pleased with the fit. Such a great jean.

@Sunnergren We went to a gig on day 1 of wearing - my wife thought I was ill cos my hands were blue! Took me a minute to figure it out.

Agree with your views - great jean for the summer
