Grabbed one mate, they are absolutely amazing

@jdwaid In terms of sizing the Mr Lous, choose your regular width and go half a size down from your Brannock measurement.

@wjw thank you for your response. I think size 32 would be ideal for me as I am afraid 33 will end up too big after stretch!

Has anyone upgraded to the pearl snaps with this?

@northsouthdenimguy sounds good

Looking for some advice on my first 25oz pair. I’ve got the 21oz in a 32, which stretched to ~33.4” and now fits perfectly. From the charts it looks like the 25oz shrinks about 1” in the waist and inseam, so I’m thinking a 33 is safer, as size 32 would be too small across the waist. Only worry is the front pockets looking oversized. Do these shrink on the first wash too and would a 40°C wash get all the shrinkage out in one go?
I’ll upload pics of both the 21oz 888s and the 25oz 888s

@FlavourFade ordered one too - excited

Just checking, the general consensus seems to be that most people go down one size on these, is that right?

@Hohba01 They will obviously shrink more when you’re washing them at 60 degrees which you don’t really need to, unless you’re after that excessive shrinkage but then you’re also risking warping/torquing at the seams
