        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".

                                @acboston Congratulations, this is pretty great denim. They are your jeans so your choice but I would advise getting the shrinkage out now. It is going to happen at some point, unless you plan on never washing them, so why not get it out of the way first? They may be uncomfortable for a while but they will stretch out to or past starting measurements with wear as @Paul9221  illustrates in his post.

                                  For those that have both the 888S-OD and the 888-XHSib in the same tagged size, which one ended up bigger once they were both broken in and all the stretch accomplished?

                                  Much appreciated!

                                    Oooh, good question!  I have both but don't wear the OD as often as the XHSib. I can only offer my guess, which is that the OD will stretch more. Based solely on the fact that my XHSib gave very little on the thigh while the 21oz gives a lot.

                                      So I'm looking at these for my next pair.. I currently have the 888s. These would be my first 25oz. My question is about cuffing. I normally don't get my denim hemmed and usually double or triple cuff. Would that work for these or are they too thick and heavy for that kind of thing?
