@Oaktavia speaking of different cuts...I was analyzing measurements on the 633 compared to the 888 just to see what they were all about and I think thats where I'd have a problem with anything but the 888. I dont think I could lose any butt/thigh space or I'd have to size up. I've already been sizing up in the 888 compared to my first pair....

Yeah I think for some dudes 888 is the best option without a doubt. Personally I love the high rise and how it hugs my hips. I just don't have much of a behind to fill it.

@kojimastreets @yannis yeah i prefer the tapered look though, and I kinda need the extra top block room. I did look at some 633s, since they apparently have the same knee-up dimensions as the 634, but I'd still be sacrificing some top room for the sake of knee room. I do like the look of the other cuts on other people, I just really think 888 is my jam. The boys just found me a perfect pair of 888OD thats bigger up top and slimmer at the hem, cant wait to try em.

Going to send these in for repairs pretty soon. Little pencil eraser sized hole forming in the crotch and breakage on the cuffs. Loving how they are fading though.

[FlavourFade]

@Oaktavia man I fuck'n love how UHR fades. Must be my next project once my XHSib are a bit more faded. How many washes are you in now?

[Oaktavia]

@FlavourFade hell yeah dude UHR is so fun to fade. Quicker to give up indigo than XHSib. Yesterday was wash #4.

[Davids_denim]

@Oaktavia making me want to give my pair another 6 months.

[worn2fade]

@Davids_denim do it man. That’s exactly my plan during the bridge! I’m 7 months into them and want to hammer them during that time.
