Very nice indeed @Kasi . I like the daps and the tee too.

Sounds like a solid theory @Filthy . The thickness of the seams will certainly add to the measurements. They are visibly chunkier on XHS iterations than on 21oz jeans.

I am a die hard fan for loopwheel t shirts have quite big collection.
Thanks as always for the input.

How is the weight & hand of this iteration of XHS compared to the XHSib? @Kasi

About the same I have worn 25oz in pronto and still feel the same as they go softer in wear.

^ that makes sense. In all three cases the denim is essentially the same. It is just the different dying processes that alter the hand and the effect of that will lessen with wear. The different dying processes certainly make for different fading patterns though.

Can't wait till Monday… and I hope I got the length right.

What length did you go for

Slightly below 35 in inseam as I want them to end up at around 34 after soaking/washing. I did squeeze below one inch of shrinkage out of my previous XHS pairs so I think it should be fine. It's just a tiny concern a new batch of denim could behave differently. Will report back with measurements.

You will be ok, hot two soaks will sorted that.
I have 777 25oz loss only one inches in length.

But this time on 555 i left them long had a change of heart.

I hemmed to 35.5 to shoot for a final of 34.5, will also report back.

Standing on the balcony 24 hrs after getting wet. I gave them a hot soak followed by a hot wash cycle for the agitation (no detergent, no spin) and hung to dry. I did this because I am between two sizes and chose the larger.

Before / After (size 36)

Waist 38 / 37.1
F rise 11.7 / 11.5
B rise 16.2 / 15.8
Thigh 13.3 / 13
Knee 9.2 / 8.8
Opening 8.5 / 8.3
Inseam 35.75 / 35

@dert, good man. Documentation is always super useful.

[Kasi]

Think there more shrinkage left to soak depending what u wanna do

@neph93 Happy to share! I keep a spreadsheet for all my denim, and the pragmatic approach across the Iron Heart community to document and share is incredibly helpful for finding a good fit.

[Dion]

Nice! Enjoy your new pair, dert!

Helloooo…

I struggled to button them up but that was totally expected and is part of the finger hurting XHS experience :P. They do feel somewhat more substantial than my PIHXHS did and as heavy as my first XHS-pair from 2015 (666-XHS). So far I am very pleased. Will soak and wash them when I have the time and return with measurements…

They're now in ''Continuous Production'' so they are an ''Extant Core Product in Continuous Production'' :).
