IH-888S-21 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
I'm so excited for these and have been checking the site daily waiting for them to drop. I have to say however after seeing the measurements I'm a little concerned about the thighs being large enough. I wear a size 34 in my 634S and the 13.3" thigh is about as tight as I would want it. Is the 13" thigh in a 888S size 34 going to be a problem, or is there some other element to this fit (the higher rise?) that might make that a non-issue? I'm sitting with a 34 in my cart right now but am wavering because of this one thing.
Same issue here. The 38 has a smaller thigh (13.9") than just about every 634 (~14.3-5") variant, it's even smaller than my PIH5DCT that I just got…

SE 633 are all quite a bit off from each of the 5 they offer. The taper is about the same, but the numbers are quite a ways off. The 14 and 17 are pretty close in all areas, only maybe .3" difference. But their 18OD is .5-.7" off in thigh alone, which makes the 36 unattainable for me. And their 21oz is around 12.8" thigh compared to the 14/17 around 13.5-6". Sucks only 2 of their 633 are proper for me…don't have skinny thighs haha.
The 888 will def bet a better cut for most compared to the 633.

The major differences as I understand it is that the 888 has a higher rise (and an extra button in the fly as a result), and that the taper on the 888 starts above the knee, while the 633 starts below the knee.

It's been mentioned several times when the idea of this cut was first brought up. @neph93 is right though about the differences, the 888 has a higher rise and the taper starts earlier than the taper on the 633.

Same concern here. The thigh on the tag 34 634 is spot on so, as much as I like the other measurements, this alone makes me reticent.
Damn leg days…

Do you think it's possible to go down the size with this pair?
Depends how you want them to fit. The 21oz stretches a bit so if you can do the thigh then you've got that option. I'm a 35 and have gone 35 in these but I could get into a 34 and allow the waist to stretch. Thing is I reckon the fit then will be more like the 555 fit and that isn't what's intended here.

Just saw more fit pics from the Rivet and Hide page and damn do these look good. Another pair of jeans is absolutely at the bottom of my want list considering the upcoming fall/winter releases but damn I might cave on these. I actually don't have a pair in the flagship fabric right now so maybe that combined with the new cut is more than enough to justify it for me.

I caved. Size 34 headed my way.

Hopefully there will be some left by G's birthday weekend so I can try a pair on.
