Nice work @ Jercules. Mine have about a year of wear and 1 wash

Here is my pair similar fades in the back pocket. Mine is the older v2 version but same fabric.

All feel different and have very different Characteristics. The 16oz slb is the most breathable. The 19 is a left hand twill and unsanforized. Its stiffer and more rigit with great fade pottential. The 14 oz is a nice all year weight. Then you have the 25oz heavy but softens up beautifully with wear and fades very nicely. You have the 18 with vintage fades, the 17oz with natural indigo. They all feel different, fade different so at the end of the day it is a matter of preference and variety.

My daily tool watch.

Some people have an elitist mentality. That true homage bs and cannot see 1 inch past their index fingure. Customers like that you can loose for a lot of trivial reasons. It's difficult to make everybody happy nor should you try. Stay true to your values and the right customer will always be there.

An easy test of mobility is the overhead squat. Load is not important. If you can overhead squat an empty bar with full depth, ample thoracic extension and heels on the ground you are generally in good shape. It will expose limitations at the upper back, hips and ankle.

My experience was different. I was expecting the 25oz 634 to be difficult to wear in the beginning and alot of forum members were having a hard time button them up. Never for me. They felt pretty comfy by day 2. My 634 leftie v2 still gives me hard time to button the top button after 2 years of wear. Its interesting how we all have our own personal experiences.

That looks great @MassiveThighs. Never go by tag size. Learn the measurements that fit you well and go by those. You will get consistent and better fit all the time and avoid all the back and forth hassle associated with returns.

@Davids_denim I think the top block of the 555 is roomier than the 666.

@jerkules A+ mate. 19 leftie fades are delicious

Tag 36 in the 888 will give you the knee measurement that you are looking for. Now if you are use to really narrow hem widths, you will struggle. Tag 36 in any cut will have a hem width over 8 inches. Make sure you are ok with that. The 555 has the smaller knee measurement from all other cuts. Look at the 888 and maybe 777. 634 and 666 will have wider hem widths.

@JohnM. Look at the measurements of the UHR. They start bigger than the 18oz. They will shrink but after wear you will end up with the pre soak/ wash measurements. The only measurements that will stay is the inseam shrinkage and any shrinkage in the hem width. Waist, hip and thigh will stretch back to pre soak measurements.

@JohnM . If you are happy with the way the 18oz fit you I will go same tag size on the UHR

Looser I meant. Sorry for the typo

They look good to me but it's about how you feel. I don't think they will get alot lower since you are not applying pressure to them but I can also tell.you that the 21od stretches quite a bit if needed. Pictures look good.

Thanks @goosehd

Great fit @Matt. Do those fit similar to a 634 or a 666?

Selfedge had a 22oz od same as the IH 22oz but modified with hand warmers. The 23oz is a different denim. I am pretty sure the 23 is unsanforized.
