• IH-666 21oz s32
• IH-634S 21oz s32
• IH-888NT 23oz s32
• IH-817 16oz engineer pants s33

T-shirts

• a few in size medium 

got my pair last night.

soaked for about 4hrs, machine washed for 15min, rinsed for another 15min. 5min spin dry.

• size 32 - raw / wash
• waist - 32.8 / 30.5
• front - 11.5 / 11
• rear - 16.5 / 15.5
• hem - 8 / 7.6
• inseam - 36.5 / 34.2

i think i was able to get the most shrinkage possible. waiting for it to dry up completely and start wearing it

• the after soaking/washing measurements are very similar to the 888s of size 32.

yeah it wasnt completely dry when i tried it. i was able to button all up except the top button when it was dried.

after a whole day of wearing it. i was able to button everything up.

fits on the tight side but hopefully with more wear time, things should be ok.

hows yours after one month?

soaked my pair last night for about 45min. the shrinkage is roughly as described on the product page.

this morning had a darn hard time buttoning up. although it had roughly the same waist as my previous 666 14oz, this one seems to be with a lower rise.

due to the stiff fabric and virgin button holes, i still cant do the top-most button yet. so will just belt this beast and try it much later.

hopefully everything will stretch out nicely and fit should be perfect. such a beast to tame. whew.

Just started mine too. Should have gotten 32 instead of 33. But since its work pants, its ok.

Fabric seems very dense but very comfy to use.

about 11mo of wear and a few washes. love the leather patch

Thanks giles! Cant wait for the new stash to arrive
