Been wearing both with regular rotation so far, but can definitely say the 31s have stretched out and loosened considerably!

Solution: keeping them both!

Sounds like its a gamble, but probably safer to side with the 32s! Worst case, I could throw them in for a hot wash/dry… I live in the US, but thankfully have a front loader.

Thanks @Chap  and @neph93 - really appreciate the help on this one!

I'd say the 32 is definitely more comfortable in the waist - could wear them almost immediately and be totally fine. The 31 are much more of a struggle to fully button, and feel more restrictive - I got them to button but with a fair amount of struggle and really hug my hips quite tightly - pocket use would definitely need them to loosen up!

Trying to decide on which pair to go with here… Size 31 on the left, and size 32 on the right.

Pretty minimal difference shown in the pictures, but the 31 are definitely slimmer in the thigh, and tight in the top block/riding up the crack!

Torn if I should account for stretch in the 31, or if the 32 will eventually become too baggy in their stretching... Any feedback appreciated!

For those who have tapered, how’d they come out? How much did you taper?

Anyone familiar with which Samurai cut would come closest to the 634?

And any chance sizing… my IH-634 sz 33 fit perfectly, but measurement methods make the comparison super challenging!

@neph93:

They look very good @Ceeds . Cool cuffs & kicks.

Thanks man! Just taking some getting used to in comparison to my 888s… at moments, I feel like I’m rocking bell bottoms!

I keep coming back to these - was considering taking them in for a taper, but starting to get more comfortable with the straight cut as time goes on. Pretty sure I’m going to keep them as is

@neph93:

@Ceeds  the thigh and knee may drop just under those measurements after the soak and wash but will stretch back too, with wear. I’d certainly recommend the 33 as they will be closest to your 888S in the long run. I suspect you’d find yourself with far too much room in the tag 34.

You could always ask IHUK to see if they have a pair of tag 33 with a slightly wider leg.

Thanks guys - I’ll most likely be doing the 33’s based on your recommendations. Appreciate it!

@Matty123:

There is a shrink test somewhere here on this thread. I would Go with the same size as 888s if I were you. They don’t shrink as much as you would Expect.

@neph93 will be here shortly to Answer all of your questions. Amply.

@Ceeds

Thanks for the feedback! I’m just concerned about the thigh dropping under 13” and the knee under 9”

Currently have a 33 in the 888S and looking into purchasing these… any idea if a 34 would be the best bet, or should I consider a 36? I definitely can’t afford a pair fitting tighter than my 21oz throughout the legs, so the shrink amount on these has me concerned and confused!

Appreciate it everyone!

Thanks All - I really appreciate the feedback!

I’m going to continue rocking them for sure

Hey All,

Hoping for some honest feedback:
I recently discovered the 888 to be the most comfortable fit, due to my thick thighs, but wondering if straight cuts are really my only option…

As you can see in the pics, the taper below the knee (from the side) causes a ‘carrot’ looking silhouette.

I also have some 634s which I love, but the leg opening on them feels closer to a boot cut.

Any suggestions or feedback? Size up? Different cut?

Thank you!
