@Jord wearing them today! 21oz od

Almost missed them after waiting for so long!
I was driving for a second day of sidemount diving class, stressed by how I’m not as fluent in the new setup, thinking about it all, and suddenly an alarm went off on my phone 5min to 17:00CET. It took me good few seconds to understand why have I set it and then panic that I’m in the middle of the highway and not in front of my PC where I have the ordering pegged.
All worked out at the end but shaking hands
-
wasnt going to buy these as i just got the 888ib's but the 35's stayed in stock overnight and i decided to be a degenerate and get another pair. too many good releases this year.
-
@Lowlander Did they remember to reserve one for you
-
@moskiitto I'm sure they would have done so, but actually I went for a different type of jeans this time.
-
@Lowlander which ones did you go for?
-
Can't wait
-
Ok guys, the heavyweight package is out for delivery !!
I plan to do the hot soak, followed by an immediate machine wash to get all the shrink out.Regarding this machine wash, it would be 30°, but what "cycle" do you guys use ? normal agitation or some sort of delicate program ? With the jeans alone (since the machine detects weight) it would be a 1 hour wash.
And would you do spinning at 400 RPM or none ? I don't mind if it takes longer to dry, but if 400 RPM doesn't hurt, why not...Cheers !
-
@Slash Gentle cycle, no spin. Safest option unless you don't mind marbling.
Getting mine today too it seems. -
@Slash
don’t forget to turn them inside out , and I would recommend no spin not even 400 rpm -
Haha received mine today. I can't belive how much stiffer they are compared to the regular XHS. Looking awesome though. Before and after soaking/washing measurements coming tomorrow.
-
Lol received mine too ! All the things that were said before were no understatements. I'm shocked
Honestly, even more kudos to the guys who choose to buy this fitting from the start, I don't think I could. My pair might prove a bit big in the long run but we'll see; anyway I could not size down this thing
I will do the washing thing tomorrow and reports some measurements for future buyers
When dry, so Monday probably 
Why are (my) thumbs so fragile man ?
-
Got mine today and my thumbs are just destroyed. lol
-
my poor thumbs...it hurts so good! pics to come soon!
-
@Slash They will fit perfect I think, let us know
-
I successfully held off on these... Whew. And those 35's were available for a while! Congratulations to everyone who grabbed them! My second favorite cut. My favorite is on the way though...
I'm going to ride my 21oz OD 555 as my dark 555. -
@Slash They will fit perfectly after you soak for at least an hour in super hot water, and/or a machine wash, hottest setting, inside out, no spin, hang dry.
