Will there be a section of the forum dedicated to the indigo challenge? For us non meta people. These 888’s are gonna be here right on time.

I think someone started one.  Try doing a search for it.

[vaquero357]

Been a lurker for a while but this is my first post, so hello to everyone.

I have been wearing IH OD 21oz. for about 6 months and have fallen in love with heavy weight. So the next logical step was to try some 25oz. I have been watching the site for the restock and just ordered these the other day. I got a notification that the hemming was done and they were shipped, should arrive tomorrow. No real point to my post just excited for my new 25oz. jeans.

welcome @PanZom. You will love the xhs, it's a wonderful fabric. Pluys, wearing Iron Heart and staying away from fast fashion is better for "Mankind"

They came in yesterday and I did 2 hot soaks and hung dry. First pair of jeans I ever owned that could stand on their own. I have them on today and even though I just about broke my fingers buttoning them this morning I can already tell I'm going to love them.

@PanZom for the button holes, take a needle nose pliers or a honing steel from a knife set and work the holes open. It will help a lot with getting them buttoned without destroying your fingers. Enjoy your new denim.

Excellent work. XHS ownership is a whole way of life [emoji1]

Thanks, that's a great idea. I try that out when I get home later.

…after almost a full week in transit the 888's finally showed up. ??? I now have 8 pair of XHS 25 oz in a variety of cuts all purchased within a year and half and that will be the end of my 'Bottom' purchases of denim. @ROman I know that must sound insane to you!

…soaked them in the laundry tub in hot water for 2 hours, washed them inside out warm with extra rinse heavy duty, bombed them into the dryer for an hour and hung up to dry the rest of the way. And that's that. Finis. Procurement is done. Now time to wear them all out.

...rather liberating if I may say.
