I feel like maybe they have reached the point where they are high contrast enough and I might machine wash them. But I don't want to lose the bright blue shades. Maybe I will wait a couple more months.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

I guess it wouldn't hurt to keep wearing them for a while longer before I wash them

Those are glorious!

Honeycomb fades coming in hot! Love the stage your pair is at @Filthy where the contrast in fades are that nice bright blue

Thanks

Hey folks,
My apologies for resurrecting an old(ish) topic but I have got my eye on a pair of these bad boys, but I am slightly reticent because I haven't owned 25oz before and it's a bit of an investment.
My main question is around the sizing, I have followed the measurement guidelines but unfortunately my 'snuggest' jeans that fit well (a pair of Indigofera Nash gunpowder) kind of fall right in the middle of 35 and 36, so I am not sure which to go for.
When I measure my existing jeans even just the slightest tension will get them to be ideal for a 36, but I'm not sure if they should be laid just flat in which case they are closer to 35.
It might be worth mentioning that I am 50, so the the chances of me getting any thinner are pretty negligible.

Any advice would be hugely appreciated.

I would go with size 35. Or a large 34

@spentcase thanks for the question, I am sure you will get some valuable feedback from forum members, but I have also grabbed your email address from your forum profile and logged this as an email for one of the team here to get back to you via email with our advice.

@Alex and BD81 thanks very much for the prompt reply, guys, much appreciated.

Go 36, all the way. The thickness of the denim has to be taken into account when you’re measuring, and there will be some shrink if you ever intend to soak or wash. Also, in my opinion, tight 25oz isn’t comfortable until it’s been broken in for a long time.

Thanks Sabergirl, there's some good points there. I'm probably just suffering from analysis paralysis

The waist on XHS will end up about on or just over published measurements after shrinkage and stretch has happened. I’d say a W35 is you best bet.

Approximately four months of daily wear, one cold soak, and one wash at 30C…

Alex they are coming into their own pretty quickly !
IB will be my next pair–-not sure which cut yet. I only have the 666S-21s so far, but I love this cut so much im still not sure what to try next

[Mustafa911]

Coming along nicely .

The color of these is pretty unbelievable

Really is. I love the way the fade patterns are stretched out and are spread everywhere. Looks like they’ve seen some action.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

That comes from them trying to contain my ginormous child bearing hips and me sweating my ass off in these I think

[BD81]

These look super cool ! I think my next pair of 25oz is going to be the xhsib.
