Still wearing them almost every other day.

This was on the day when we found the big White Oak tree.

One thing has become clear to me doing the Indigo Invitational in some SBGs:
Life without XHS is a sad existence.

Will be alternating this pair with the SBGs (which I also love) for the time being.

Decided to go for a bit of a stealthy look with these. Tonal stitching for the hem, and removed arcuates. Sacrilege you say? Nah, just toning down the contrast a bit, (wishing these had the dark back pocket stitching of the 888-XHSib).

Did a hot soak last night. Water as hot as I could get it, a bit of agitation and left them to soak for an hour. Then changed the water, some more agitation and left them for another hour.

After drying overnight they were almost comically stiff and cardboardy this morning . They buttoned up just fine though with a bit of elbow grease.

Absolutely love breaking in IH 25oz. Never gets old.

These were hemmed at 33.5 inches and after drying ended up at a perfect 32.5.

Combs off to a decent start.
