IH-888S-21 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo

gonna give them another try 1 size up. i remember the fabric not being as stiff/rigid as the xhsib. is this correct? felt like i didn't even have to break them in, and felt almost like wearing carpet.
It's a much lighter fabric. It's only 4oz but it makes a big difference. One of the more knowledgeable members might be able to expound on why it feels so much thicker.
I'm hoping that they make a XHS version soon. Insta-cop!
Selft edge has the xhs in a 633 cut. Is that one of iron hearts cut? Cant find it anywhere on here.

That's Self Edge's tapered version of the 634. So no high rise.
Ah ok. Are they coming out with the 25oz in the 888 any time soon? I might hold off then

Amy time estimate of the indigo/white?
Thank you!

I didn’t want to wait for the 888-XHS, so I nabbed the 633-XHS from SE and I’m loving them, the low rise makes the cut feel even more relaxed. Zero regrets. That being said the flagship 21 oz is still my favorite.
I grabbed the 633, but the thighs were too small on me. Also the rise is night and day compared to the 888. So now im stuck about $400 on self edge with no interest in anything. Hopefully they stock the 888xhs when it comes out [emoji1696]

Agreed the rise is much different. I don’t always want my pants hiked up that high personally. But I love my 888’s also.
As far as the thighs not fitting, the 633 has a half inch more in the thigh measurement so that doesn’t make sense.
Not all cuts measure the same. Also IH and SE have different measuring methods.
-
i think they updated the measurements on the 888s. there is no way im buying the tag 32 with an 11.9'' thigh.
either way, both did not fit me. i could be confusing the fabric of the 633XHS with tightness. would reeeeally like an 888 cut in indigo/white

cant wait!

@paul9221 I'm encouraged to hear that you've seen significant stretch with your 888s in the past. I'm on a day 1 with a pair now…roughly how many wears was it before you experienced significant stretch in the waist and thigh?
Man, they stretched TOO fast. I'll see if I can dig up my numbers but I think the thigh stretched out 0.5" in two days. Same with the waist.
