Helping Baby H celebrate turning 1 (a few days early, but the in-laws came for lunch so why not).

@EdH Happy birthday Baby H!! You have the whole world ahead of you

[Kfactor]

That’s a nice looking cake @EdH

@Kfactor Thanks, I bought it with my own money!

We can't bake for shit, but if you want something fried, I'm your guy.

@L-sirhc Curious what size you take in IH jeans (actual waist IH way would be most helpful) - this fit looks really good on you. Thanks

[L.sirhc]

@Inorganic I wear tag 32-33 (31.5-33inch waist before stretch) depending on low or mid rise, thought about getting the 805 in tag 30 for tighter fit instead opted for tag 32 for comfort and layering. I wear mine almost everyday. Hope that helps .

[Inorganic]

@L-sirhc thank you!

[Kfactor]

Anyone soak theirs first? Or just wear? I typically soak my denim jackets but not always pants

[goosehd]

@Kfactor I just pulled it out of the bag and put them on.

[popvulture]

@Kfactor not me personally, wouldn’t worry much about a soak with 21oz.

[Kfactor]

@goosehd @popvulture thank you both! Pics tomorrow of day 1!

[Kfactor]

Here we go. Tried them on last night after work. (The pup wanted in on the pic)

Hi guys. Any thoughts on why the cuffs don't have the selvedge id on the 805?

[Oaktavia]

@Motorhubro there is one inside but not on the pant leg...it took me over a year before I noticed it.

Because the side seams are felled seams....

I wear a size 34 in 634s and 822s… unfortunately size 34 is sold out in the 805s and can’t find a pair anywhere. Do you think going up to a size 36 would be ok or would they be too sloppy? I would like to be able to layer them with a thermal and flannel in the colder months. I’m a gardener/landscaper by trade and need to be able to move in them, so I think the 32 would be in the wrong direction. Or should I wait until I can get a size 34? Hmmm… any insight?

Just tried this for me and it didn't work.
And don't go too small. Guess you should wait.

@endo Not the answer I wanted to hear, but the answer I expected. Will keep my eyes open.

@Giles Thanks. That makes sense
