      I’d ask again after two weeks of wear. Things will change.

      That being said the the top block and upper thigh look great to me. Snug at the start is good.

      Full disclosure so as to avoid offence, tapering and other meaningful adjustments to cuts just isn’t my thing, regardless of how good Rain is (and she is very good). I don’t get it and I’m negatively predisposed to it so take the following with a pinch of salt.

      I’d suggest the room in the knee is a consequence of the adjustment that has been made. No reflection on Indigo Proof, but changing finely calibrated designs can have unwanted consequences. They still look like a well fitted pair of jeans to me though. Enjoy!

      EDIT: I’ll reiterate that the way the jeans break and fall will change as the fabric softens so post again after a few weeks. Things will change including the knees.

        @neph93 Thank you as always for your feedback and insight! I totally understand if making such fit adjustments isn't your thing. I'll keep wearing 'em and follow up!

          I also think they look great. The thigh will expand a little past what you need.  I've seen 0.75" stretch in the thigh.  Snug at the start is the beginning of a perfect fit.  Stay the course, sir!

            I'm happy with how these are fitting fresh out of the bag. I could go a size down but frankly I am too old for that shit 🙂

                It really seems to be an outstanding cut! Plenty of room where I want it and not so much extra where I don't!! Nicely done (again) IH Crew!!!  🙂 🙂 🙂

                And the extra deep pockets are just f'n icing on the cake!!!

                    My Man!! Believe it or not these are actually replacing the 634 red tabs I bought from you many many moons ago! They are finally not fit for kid pick up/drop off anymore!! Speaking of, yes, there are two now. My son is 6 and my daughter is 3, and they are both about to turn.

                    I guess I could size down since I don't want any more chillins?? 😃 😃 😃

                    Hope all is well with you MadMan!! Much love to you and yours!!

                        Hey guys.
                        Anybody got these and the 634s 21oz.
                        If so, did you take the same size in both.
                        Cheers.

                          I do, and I did, but remember to look at the measurements.  I always check the waist and thigh to ensure that it'll work out.

                            Made me a little more confident.
                            First time buying jeans on pure measurements. 36 looks good.

                              888’s are flexible cuts. If you’re comparing waist sizes you can get away with a smaller measurement on the 888 than on the 634 because of the higher rise and roomier top block.

                                Perfekt. Thank you. I was wondering about that. When looking at the measurements it makes good sense.

                                  @Mni I am generally a 36 waist. I've owned 634s in 36, but the hem was just a bit too wide in that large a waist size.

                                  I've just ordered a 36 in 888s 21oz today, so fit pics to follow.

                                            Pre soak. As I get older, the higher rise, looser general fit, and wider hem are a better option. The fit like the 55 Big E Levis I wore when I was in my early 20s (a couple of decades ago)…
