Simply beautiful!

These are my DWC at 1.5 years. I’ll take some proper pictures after the next wash! These will be heading to rain in a month or so. Any suggestions on what 888 denim to go with while they’re in for repair? These are 35s I was looking at the eco denim? Any experience or fade examples? a

@Jordanxbuffer I'd hold off on your repair and hold out for a restock of the 888-XHSib size 34… you seriously won't be disappointed.

Has there been any more headway in a restock of the XHSib?

there's still 36s left if you can size up… I'd ask Giles and Alex.

After a 12hr day it was nice to see these on my doorstep! So I am now official on this page.

@732fraziea BOOM! Congratulations.

Coincidentally I’m wearing mine today, after their second wash. These have had about 80 days of wear so this is what you have to look forward to…

[732fraziea]

Thanks and looking good!
After Thursday I will be off for a week. So I plan to wear them every single day!

I hear you! These AF1's definitely have some blue at the ankle from my other pairs of IH. But sometimes you just have to do it!

This is the conclusion I have come to.

Perfect fit I would say!

Thanks!
I had UHR's in 666 about 4yrs ago. I tried but could not make them work. These feel great, totally got the right cut.

Freshly washed. Crispy AF.

I am strongly considering picking up one of the remaining pairs of 888 UHR with yellow arcuates (I'd prefer indigo, but my size is sold out), but I am curious, has anyone eventually machine washed these on HOT, no spin? I have seen the directions give for the initial wash (cold soak several hours, wash on warm), but I am a stickler for getting all the shrinkage out that I can, though I do not want to wash on hot if it will cause issues with denim of this weight.

Also, after several washes, what total shrinkage in the inseam can be expected? 2"? 3"?? Trying to decide what hem length to specify upon purchase.

Thanks in advance for your wisdom of experience!

Every pair will behave differently, but regardless of what you do, you'd be better off getting them in and soaking/washing them to get the all the shrinkage out then send them back for hemming. If you hem before shrinking your pair, you're taking a gamble. Just my opinion!
