I was thinking the 634XHSib would hit first then these would come after the summer… guess I'm gonna have to brace for impact :o

PS I've got stuff for sale! Hahaha

888 or 777 it will be… Can't wait to see size charts

Much sooner than I expected too! The anticipated 888 ib release and UHR!

Hey James
how does your pair look like?

Question for all :
maybe it’s a stupid question, but how do I find out what size I need ?
will there be pre/post washing measurement charts ?

[popvulture]

I'm very curious about the same thing. Basically interested in how much shrink I can expect, and how much they stretch back to or past tag size.

From what I gather in the thread, seems like a hot soak only gets about 1/2", which is what I'd be doing since my washing machine is such a piece of shit. IIRC someone did a hot machine wash and was closer to 1".

Also am I right in understanding that these are a bit less breathable than XHS, but also softer from the get-go? Seems like because of the latter, they might have a little more stretch? All speculation on my part of course…
