IH-888-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Ind/blk

[goosehd]

@worn2fade solid plan and best of luck. I have one pair where I got my measurements wrong and when washed became too tight. Put them on a shelf and forgot about them until one day when I gave them another chance. Still too tight, but fought them until they stretched back out. I am happy to say that my perseverance paid off and are one of my best fitting jeans.

They are the only pair of jeans that bruised my hips though…

@goosehd dang bro, I need to know which model it was that pushed you to your limits lol.

Let me guess tho.. you have yet to wash them again?

[goosehd]

@worn2fade 666xhs and washed/worn numerous times over the years.

[worn2fade]

@goosehd and you didn’t experience the fabric shrinking the same way as the first wash?

[goosehd]

@worn2fade only the first.

I always found that after a second or third and further washes, it tightens up after it dries but within a day or sometimes within hours its mostly stretched back out, its that first wash that is the riskiest one I find

[mikemakuch71]

these have a tonal accurate pocket?

[Tago Mago]

@mikemakuch71 yes

[mikemakuch71]

really ? have the 888’s always been like that?

[Tago Mago]

@mikemakuch71 these have, see here. There have been tonal arcs on other models, but the majority of models have contrast arcs

[mikemakuch71]

@Tago-Mago the only tonal pockets i knew of were the 555 21oz but now they are gold stitch.. how long have the 888’s been tonal? i guess i never noticed

[Tago Mago]

@mikemakuch71 I'm basing this on the pics in this thread and my guess is from the beginning. @ShopatIronHeart tonal arcs on the 888-XHSib since inception?

You could always... you know... read through the thread, I've spent a good 30-40 minutes going through all the pictures on here a few times...
