@madmonday could u send post measurements
Giles style measuring ? -
Thanks Thompsoa, that is super helpful! If you don't mind, would you be able to provide current waist measurements of your size 33? Would be good to see how much stretch they have after 2 soaks.
I have been wearing them everyday since last friday (even slept in them a few times to help the break in process) and they have stretched out .75 inches, so they're at 16.75 inches at the waist, and I'm assuming they will give a little more with some more wear.

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. . . .
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.
Tried them but they somehow didn't agree with you. I might give them a go again but I'm an inpatient bastard. Jeans don't fit right I'm usually onto the next one pretty quickly. D666 told me give em some time so that's the only reason they still in my foot locker . . .
Sorry they didn't work out. Mine have since stretched .75 in the waist after less than a week of wear, so they're is some give in these jeans with wear, if your on the edge about them.

Thanks! I just purchased a W32 that hasn't seen that much shrinkage in the waist. Might try to give them another hotsoak before i wear them.

They are incredibly stiff to start and the denim seems to fade fast but is a tough bitch to get to soften up. The thigh on mine (sz33 thigh is 12") is pretty tight but unsure how it compares to the 555.
-
Having both, the rise is the biggest difference, I like the shorter rise on the 301s but it just depends. And yea what Anesthetist said, they are stiff as hell starting out and the fades did start to come in fast, but they take a little while to really break in

I highly recommend you do, the denim on these is amazing, assuming it hasn't changed from the first run. These are by far my favorites in rotation…and I remember after the initial soak they were pretty snug around the waist, but my measurements change from 32 to 33 depending on the jean

I did not but almost wished I had since I have fairly athletic legs. As for you, I'd measure your 555 and compare to the size charts for the 301.

Best of luck and give em hell!
