I'm totally with you on the greatness of the XHS denim,but the other mitigating factor is that all my 25OZ denim is about 3 weeks from being put away until,maybe,October.

If they were posted anywhere it would be here. Expect them tomorrow some time before release.

Finances and current jeans collection says no. But XHS denim in this cut with measurements that work may be too hard to resist.

It certainly wouldn’t be the first time [emoji1]

This would be my first XHS purchase –- my best fitting waist measurement is 37.2ish, do you think I could make it work with a size 36 (37.8" waist measurement)? I was hopeful that the measurements for one size of 555-XHS would be in the low 37" range - could I expect it to shrink down to 37" and stay close to 37"?

As a rule of thumb, and according to personal experience then you’ll lose around 0.5” with the hot soak/wash and gain an inch in stretch (although this will happen more slowly than with 21oz for example). So calculate with a desired waist, post stretch at about half an inch larger than measured.

The IH-888-XHSib thread and the thread for the sample pair of the same jeans contain a lot of useful, real life, customer documentation of this kind of thing. More details there.

Can you say that again, please?
I have been reading the XHS and XHSib forums, yesterday I read about 30 pages of the 666-XHS, and some other XHS forums in the last couple months, I'll read some more 888-XHSib this morning. What I have learned is that, is that I am between sizes, and I'll probably be disappointed and have a loose pair after a couple months - I'm just hopeful that I'm wrong.
