Finally got a pair of these! I was visiting Denver from Phoenix and was able to stop in to Berkeley Supply to try them on. Went up to a size 35 in these, usually I'm a 34 in the 555 cuts.

RE: IH-634S-142ib-c - 14oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo/Black
Can't believe I didn't find these sooner. These are perfect for someone who wants the 25oz indigo/black but lives in a very hot climate, haha. Never thought I'd be a 634 guy but I'm shocked at this fit. Stoked!

RE: IH-888S-18 - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans
Got my pair today, crazy fast! I was a little worried with the waist to thigh ratio on these, but they're just about perfect in my usual size of 35". just a bit tight in the waist but it should end up exactly where I want them to be!
This denim is crazy soft and pliable. I may even like it a bit more than the 14oz- Feels like nothing compared to the 19oz lefty's I've been wearing!

@JohnM Yep! Just got them in and only have been wearing 'em for about an hour. I'll keep you posted!

@JohnM Flat across mine ended up being about 16.85" or so, probably exactly 17" with the IH method. But the thighs were a little tighter than expected at 13.5" (Perfect for me!)

@JohnM After one day of wear I'm at 17.5" using the iron heart waist measuring method!

@JohnM Agreed! It took me a while to come around to the 888's- Coming from Levi's 511's, the 888's felt so baggy the first time I tried them on. Now that I'm used to it, they feel perfect!
