Trying to get this 21 oz workshirt to loosen up some (layered over a 316 tee and a Real McCoy sweatshirt), but it’s taking awhile given I can’t invest proper time. The age old problem - too many great options to put proper wear into each piece. I guess I really need to thin the herd. As much as I hate that idea.

I will say the 12 oz sashiko CPO has softened up quite nicely. Obviously a completely different animal. Still incredible.

Just sold my olive serge - victim of early IH journey purchases for me (along with early 50s gut). So many of my 2X shirts are being sold. I’m so lame.

Odie the Sheepadoodle on the couch

Last night - with the 21 oz serge windbreaker and an Eagles lid. Go Birds.

@Johnnyutah247 - nice pickup! I have that colorway of the v6 as well - bought it after the Carhartt version (another workwear variety), which I like just a bit better with a second grayish/sage color mixed in.

It's almost time for me to find another pair of 990v6 as several of mine are starting to wear out. It's great that places like StockX and eBay exist these days.

@Mizmazzle - nice! I need to start wearing mine more often. I’ve been reaching for the 21oz sashiko work shirt as those fades are starting to pop nicely. But it’s starting to heat up a bit so might need to transition.

@dwils - Nice! I got my eye on the 38.5 - which should get me close to 39.5 - which is what I need (in that range anyway).

Do we expect this denim to stretch an inch and shrink an inch similar to the 25 XHS?

Thanks @yannis - I was hoping someone would know without having to measure. Although to be sure I would obviously need to get off my arse.

I'm pretty good at math, but this SE vs IH measurement process chatter has me all twisted. Here's what I'm hoping someone can tell me - if SE says the waist is 38.5" in the 633, what does that translate to if IH was to measure the same pair? A larger measurement? By how much?

Next question - for the thigh and knee - same sort of deal? IH would be a larger measurement?

Appreciate the assist!

@SKT - Wow - huge Wilco fan here - very cool

@Matt - agree 992 a bit longer than 990v6. But I too enjoy the extra room with my 50+yo feets.

@AdamJ - yes miUSA are supposed to be higher quality...although the issues I've seen are on those versions too. Granted I wear the shit out of them. Bottom line - it's not gonna stop me from wearing NB. I dig the 990v6 and 992 miUSA waaay too much.

Hope you find a silhouette that you enjoy.

@AdamJ - on that note, I have also noticed a bit of sole separation on some of my 990v6 NB. Hope they aren't skimping on the glue these days, as I feel like NB is really starting to push up on Nike - although that's just an observation - no actual data to support that statement.

@Matt - atta boy! Hope you dig the bright orange as much as I do. True workwear colors here IMO.

I wear this pair quite often - as well as the recent purple/brown baklavas - starting to enjoy the 992 quite a bit.
