1 each 30, 31, 32 and 33 placed into stock….

[madmonday]

just random images as so much text drives me a bit bonkers:

i swear the next jeans i buy are going to be from a company that offers free repairs, hahahahahaha

[Giles]

Latest production run is complete.  Restock in about a week….

[mr.dead]

holy geez, thats a lot of crotch repairs. how old are these? is this typical for you?

[madmonday]

unfortunately yeap.  i got thunder thighs & my pants hang low.

i think it's the way i'm built.  now i just need to find denim with looser thighs that do not look sloppy & a smaller leg opening. . . .

[mr.dead]

Ah understood. I thought I had it bad when it came to the saggy jean/big thigh problem, but I dont usually need that much repair. My gf just got a sowing machine so I'm hoping to do some of my own darning at some point.

Well,

Thanks to some luck with sizing in this latest batch (Thanks for measuring Paula!), I have a pair of these heading my way.

Hoping they work out like I imagine they should!

Got these yesterday - 15 min warm soak and good to go (yes, they are crazy long - ill get them hemmed after some wear and another soak)

Before some oil - can't believe the patch picked up so much indigo:

After some Justin's boot conditioner:

After 10 minutes of wear - holy combs!

fit looks good mate! great decision…

[Appfaff]

@Finn666 - thanks dude! - after a few months of trying to figure out which fit would work best for me, i settled on these. The bonus was Paula found me the perfect pair - relaxed in the top block with a nice higher rise and slim leg below knee.

The SEXIH22-301 is the way to go. I have huge thighs and my 555-01,555-02,and 555-03's all hang real low cuz of the size of my thighs. These new 301's are perfect, I highly recommend them.

[Finn666]

^the mad man already owns them o/course…he's right there with me, with the issue of these things being too slim (compared to the same size i/we wear in the 555's).

[thompsoa]

That's so strange that you guys are having that issue because with me it's the opposite. I sized the same for my 555-01s and sized 33 on my 555-02's (post shrinkage of the 301's). The thigh is slightly fuller as are the legs, however not by much. The low rise makes it so the jeans fit better and higher in the crotch area, so they don't hang low, causing the distress to the crotch. Wonder why my experience is so much different than yours… Well sorry, I hoped that suggestion would be of some help but I guess that was already tried.

[Appfaff]

I love the 301 - your pair is a golden fit for sure.

For me, though, the 555-02 that I had IHUK measure for me seemed like the obvious choice. Glad I got them, and I'm glad you are enjoying your 301s - they do look great on you.

[Finn666]

^haha yeah…no hard feelings though. now i know what size to get the next time i'm going for'em, so it also has a good thing to it!

love my 555-03's as well…should have gotten these (or the 01's) instead. next time then

btw. how's the range of motion in the top block/thigh area for you (since you and me have similar big thighs to deal with!)?...
