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.

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

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.

@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.

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.

Thanks! Glad to hear it, better chance of being able to grab one.

Will stockists be picking these up as well?

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

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

Toss my name on the long list of suitors for this one....and the 293 OD.

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.

@DeeDee85 thanks! Still on the fence sizing-wise haha. I realize hot soak and dry is a dangerous game, but is it possible to shrink this fabric in the chest by .5" if the XXL is too big?

Team, I emailed the team but wanted to ask here as well. I'm 6'1 with a 45" chest. I have a 15oz canvas CPO style shirt with 24" chest and bottom opening that fits well, I can layer a heavy hoodie.

I was certain I needed an XL with 25" chest, but I'm doubting myself due to the 21oz weight. I want to layer this, while not feeling too restrictive and not looking huge. Would the XXL be best? I weigh 10 lbs more than Courtney in the pics.
