@732fraziea hell yes to that fit. Great work.

I dig that cookie-cutter outline in the back pocket

Can I just say how much I appreciate the lined pockets on these?  It's such a minor thing but it really makes the pockets feel stronger?  Higher quality?

edit:  Substantial!  That's the word I was looking for.

[732fraziea]

I totally agree!

A double entendre with my 888's and our local brewery!

I've actually never owned a pair of 888s — 666 has always seemed more of my jam, but I'm interested in these due to the 21oz fade-to-grey with tonal stitching.

How do these fit over engineer boots? Looks like 8.3 in a size 35, which I think would actually be the same as the 666s I usually wear, roughly. Are the 888s tapered though? Maybe not so much? Just lookin' for a bit of clarification…

The 888’s are tapered in a similar way to the 777. That is to say both cuts have a gradual taper all the way from thigh to hem. The 888 has a wider starting point however, therefore a bigger hem. They fit perfectly over engineers imho. Not too flappy, not to small.

Thanks, man!

Yeah even though those 666s are coming out, I'm torn… I've been curious about the 888 for a while. I've got some time either way, as the 888s in my size are out of stock. Will have a think!

Just got mine in yesterday. I'm going to try and wear these consistently for the next year!

[Weft 4 Dead]

Any timetable on a restock?

[Giles]

Going into production any minute, expect them in 2-3 months.

Sweet, thanks Giles.

Now, can I wait like a good boy, or do I go with the 21oz mad black or XHS…

[Drumedge]

What size is Graham wearing in this photo? They look fantastic!

Ahem… XHS is always the right answer. Should I get takeway tonight? XHS. Square root  of 144? XHS. What would Jesus do? XHS.

These are a tag 33. I will grab actual measurements when I am with them tomorrow.

I find that I can wear a 33 or a 34 in the 666 cut and they both work well for me, one slim, one a bit looser.
