      Thanks guys! I give you my tips Based my experience : first, wear your jeans loose if you have this pair. second, wear it ‘dry’ maybe around 2 months Roughly but dont make it too dirty, its okay if you gettin’ sweat Because you have to settle creases first. Third, after 2 months, spray the honeycomb with fresh water untill it feels wet on your back knee! And take Them for cycling untill 1 hours (based on my experience) and do it 3 days a week! I know its painful but believe me, its worth it!  do your activity harder, get ‘em dirty, get it jogging, do some squats, lunges, hiking mountain, do something little stupid like you want to do! Around 4 or 5 months, soak ‘em 40 minutes with warm water while WEAR IT ON THE TUB! After that, wear ‘em harder again untill 12 month or more or less is up to you! Mine untill 10 months and handwash it.. there’s a lot of tips out there but not much details untill i give you all my “Too Much” details! Haha 🙂  sorry for long post. Have a good day for all of you!

            Got these on the initial run, had maybe a month wear then moved on to 777UHR, decided to get back into them last December and been wearing them very regularly throughout the winter. No idea real wear count, I do need to get better at that.

            They have the initial soak and one wash. Not overly avoiding wash, when they are dirty they get a bath.

                      Most things have been pushed back. There’s this thing going on around the world with people getting sick and other people having to stay at home. It’s causing some issues.

                              While I’m on it, this is the ultimate tool for those tricky first buttonings. My first pair took about 30mins and cost me some skin and serious tendon fatigue every time I had to button/unbutton the fuckers.  With this little fella it took me 60 seconds and was practically painless. To be honest it felt like I was cheating. IHUK should offer them as an up-sell with every pair of XHS… [emoji1]

                                The top button on these was the roughest initial buttoning that I've ever experienced. I had to take breaks between attempts.

                                The XHS didn't give me much trouble at all.

                                  Placed an order for these today & they will be my first 888's.  I sold my 555-XHSib's because they were just to too tight & restrictive.  Absolutely loved the denim.  Mind blowing color & somehow on another level from all the other 25oz XHS Ive had.
                                  The measurements are slightly greater than my 633-XHS from Selfedge which I love.  The 633 cut is my absolute favorite so I'm hoping these can fit & look nearly as good.  I think the extra room will give me the freedom to do more physical activities than my more form fitting pairs.

                                      @yannis  Can’t speak with experience to the 634, but when it comes to the 888-XHSib then yes, go with the same size. I have both in W33 and while the denim is very different, both fit like they should.

                                          First day in these today and they are awesome. My 2nd pair of Iron Hearts, also have the 888s. Can I expect some stretch in the waist? I have not soaked and don't plan on it until I break the in. I was able to button them all the way up on day one without blisters on my fingers so I have that going for me as well.

                                            Toughest button-up in my experience!

                                            Mine came measuring 32.0" in the waist.  After a soak, dropped down to 31.5".  After wear, they've stretched to 33.0".
