@grapefruit
Reckon I won’t be wearing em in summer though, how do they go in your climate?

Primary purpose of off-cuts is protecting carbon forks from being scratched by protruding bolts.

And the socks?

@Aussie-Ben my climate is summer all year round but it still works.

[grapefruit]

@nurunuru seems very smart. makes me want to get carbon forks and protect them like you do.

Likewise. I'm a big fan of buffering. Outside of streaming video platforms, that is.

the 25oz i/b has not been my favourite denim in years gone by but the hype around the 634/888 lately is tempting me. Might be my 2026 project!

[Mizmazzle]

@AdamJ interesting to hear, Adam. I know many consider it a favorite. I'm curious what made you shy away??
This will be me first XHSib too...excited to try a new flavor.

@AdamJ I sound like a broken record but it's da best man.

[AdamJ]

@Mizmazzle I've worn IH-555S-SBG as a constant for the last 8 years and mixed in the odd 14oz pair of indigos. I had the IH-555-02 and IH-555N for ages too.

I've never actually had a 25oz pair, this will be the first, decision made!

[Mizmazzle]

@AdamJ oh boy!! 25oz is is wacky, wild ride in the best possible way!! I look forward to hearing your thoughts as you step into these monsters!!

XHS is king!!

@AdamJ I’ve copped both 666S SBG and 555 XHS in the last month or so and I’m obsessed with the feel of XHS. If the XHSib come in 555 or 666 I am going to go broke haha. But seriously, I think I’d get a pair to hold until next years Invitational. I’ve been lurking in all the XHSib threads and the fades are so sick!

[crollee]

@AdamJ is it looking like early 2026 on these? If not and it might be 6 months, I might pull the trigger on the 21oz before the navy stitched pockets are gone.

[AdamJ]

@crollee early 2026 I suspect, the run won't be far off being completed. These will be back again though, last chance on the 21oz with navy arcs

[cbmyles]

@AdamJ do you guys know yet if these or the 888 xhsib will be released first?

[Jack]

@cbmyles We don't yet I'm afraid, but it looks like they will come at around the same time !

[CosmoSix5]

Wait for these or cave(try) on the 666. Good problems are still problems . I think I need to wait for the higher rise. Eh we'll see.

[Salted Racer]

666 brother lol

[mikemakuch71]

i simply cannot wait for this restock

[AdamJ]

@mikemakuch71 you and me both!

[Slash]

Did I miss some messages while going (rapidly) back in time in this thread, or did the last restock on this one happen 2 years ago ? Is this the pace for this specific item ? I read a bit along about the production pace "issue" IH has, so I was wondering....because this one is clearly on my "I will one day want one" list
