Is anyone able to confirm this store front is still open? (covid) Ill be in Tokyo in 2 weeks and might try and make a special trip out on a Sunday AM.

i gotta be that guy and ask:

I was trying on a old pair of 634's in a 35 and i felt the legs were much tighter/slimmer than my 888 25oz 36's. As in quite a bit noticeable, whereas i would almost describe my 888's as baggy below the knees, the 634's felt more trimmed. Anyone else have this experience?

My problem is I enjoy the roominess of the 888 upper block but really which the legs and below the knee were trimmer. I think wearing the bibs ruined me. And now I wanna grab a UHR pair before the go OOS. The 634's were a bit more restrictive in the thighs but the overall fit "fit" me better (at least in my head in the mirror.)

any advice other than buying all the UHR pairs

@Noahf:

One thing i noticed that i thought was super weird, some of the stitching is different color. So like the left pocket and left fly are one yellow/gold color, and the right side of the fly is a different yellow/gold color. Why is that?

can you make a picture?

Here you go. Don’t mind the dry wall dust:

Adding a pantry in the garage and it’s a good break in for the 888’s.

Look ma, no hands!

I never thought I would have a pair that stood up on their own, but here we are. The upper block is awesome, comfy. The rear goes a good few inches higher than many of my other pairs. I do wish there was a bit more taper below the knee, but i imagine that is a symmetrical issue.

And the craziest thing that will be said today: these 25oz feel so light compared to the double knee bibs its like im not wearing anything! They feel like “normal” jeans at this point. I think ive gone mad. They arnt even soft yet and feel like a good pair. I had them hemmed but still have way to much, so probably going to do a tight japanese cuff.

Entered with some 888’s. These are a lil roomier than expected and probably won’t get me the super sick fades. Nothing wrong with the fit, i can just tell it’s not “honeycombs for days” kinda fit.  I’ll get fit pictures later.

mine come in tomorrow as well. somehow uk -> cali is faster than most cali -> cali orders 

Eeek. Judging sounds like mess.

I think ill just keep track of the 888 fades on here. I'm not on FB and not trying to compete, but would like a place to record and see how everyone is doing.

@Matt:

I think someone started one.  Try doing a search for it.

ahh found it. i think i checked when i got the email saying IH was sponsoring and it hadnt been created. but ill likely just post in that thread.

Will there be a section of the forum dedicated to the indigo challenge? For us non meta people. These 888’s are gonna be here right on time.

Les go! Order incoming
