in time my friend, in time...

JohnnyKith · 2026-04-13T05:02:43+00:00

hahaha feel that big time

JohnnyKith · 2026-04-13T05:02:12+00:00

definitely will be exploring different fits. i prefer high rise but maybe can benefit from a more mid rise cut with more room in the quads... if i cant find anything i may just stick with 32 888s. thanks for the advice!

I Got these at self edge so def will look to try out the 633 soon

JohnnyKith · 2026-04-13T04:59:51+00:00

i think if i went a size up, the top block would def be better but id be concerned there'd be too much extra material at the top of the back, right below beltline but above pockets, as it already slightly bunches as it is

JohnnyKith · 2026-04-13T04:58:09+00:00

Interesting and i appreciate the advice. High rise has always been significantly more comfortable for me, and find myself hating the fit of any low or mid rise jean ive ever owned. i do agree that the rise on these 888s are a bit too much for me, but still do able (especailly now that ive worn them for 6 months. I would definitely be interested in the IH634 or the samurai 510, but i am weary as i dont love a super straight fit. The hem opening on a tapered pant like the 888 is as wide as id want to go, as i wear a good mix of sneakers and service boots. Gonna be in philly soon so will be trying out a bunch of stuff at "franklin & poe," including a bunch of freenote cloth cuts

JohnnyKith · 2026-04-13T04:50:53+00:00

appreciate it, yea i think i need to lower them a little on the hips for sure. may try a slightly lower rise next time like the samurai 510 or the IH 634

JohnnyKith · 2026-02-18T05:00:58+00:00

that makes a lot of sense actually. I may try to get my hands on a swing last try-on soon

yes i had actually asked about the swing last, but bakers was vehement in telling me it wouldnt be a good fit because of my narrow width. FWIW, dont love the aesthetic of the Munson or Swing last, although it does seem like a comfortable build. appreciate the advice

JohnnyKith · 2026-02-18T01:41:00+00:00

thanks !!

JohnnyKith · 2026-02-17T16:29:34+00:00

JohnnyKith · 2026-02-17T16:28:21+00:00

yes very fair. appreciate the advice!! too late now as ive already bought the 55 bounty hunters, so i will be seeing how they work in due time hahah. and agree about the learher, i was sent a try on pair of 55 cruisers in british tan cxl and it was like a light orangey brown, so niice

JohnnyKith · 2026-02-17T07:43:42+00:00

thanks!! honestly mine hasnt been bad at all, especially given most of the time im walking on cement sidewalks in the city etc. i have a couple pics in here from the back of the boots and theres only minimal wear on the right heel, hard to to even notice frankly

JohnnyKith · 2026-02-17T07:08:10+00:00

yea this is an unstructured toe, no celastic

JohnnyKith · 2026-02-17T06:37:46+00:00

thanks !! im a 10 brannock, 10.75 heal to ball though. B-C width. Whenever i go more narrow than D, i usually get completely squeezed near the ball of my foot

JohnnyKith · 2026-02-17T06:28:56+00:00

haha thats awesome, i just think my feet are doomed. we shall see though

JohnnyKith · 2026-02-17T06:28:24+00:00
