@SilentMikal I noticed the size I've been eyeing changed as well. Hoping for restock news soon.

Holy crap, snagged the last pair from the branch in Germany. My first 888 and XHS. I have some experience with stiff 25oz from another brand. Slightly intimidated with the different cut and bulk these guys will have but I know the hype is real for a reason. I've been planning on grabbing the new 555s but they've been pushed back a couple of times. I'm a sucker for tonal arcs so I pulled the trigger when I saw they still had a pair. Overall very excited to get to work on them.

I think the large is about how most folks like their type 3, but I'd pick the XL. I always lean towards more functionality though and would prefer the option to comfortably layer while fully buttoned.

This will be a must for me as well. Very curious what the size chart will be.

I asked for some measurements and was told they were in storage until the launch and remeasures won't take place until next week (via email). The response was lightning fast which I appreciated.

@xcesiv Haha, yes, was me! I normally wear 38 but prefer some extra room in the heavyweights.

@Denimminer I had come to terms with sitting this one out until seeing this

Sigh...I was hoping it'd work out, but the rise is just too high after sizing up. The size chart only had a .5" difference to my other pairs but they're touching my belly button.

Come on 555 release!

SBG is so choice.

@Oaktavia I have a similar situation. Occasionally results in an extra fade line or two on the rear thighs.

Tonal arcs, always and forever.

@AdamJ is it looking like early 2026 on these? If not and it might be 6 months, I might pull the trigger on the 21oz before the navy stitched pockets are gone.

Need.

@coldsteel50 if your size is still available, grab one!! It will break in.

This will be a must for me as well. Very curious what the size chart will be.
