IH-555-02 - 18oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Jeans - Indigo

[Fergz]

So I gave these another soak over the weekend and it has made a huge difference. Much more snug around the waist. My advice is to soak these in HOT water for a good long while.

Incredibly - and I am somewhat flabbergasted - zero issues with the buttons and no left leg twist. Is this just "one of those things?"

Anyway, all good. Gorgeous jeans, great fit for the long skinny legged and the denim is of course classic 18oz sartorial sweetness.

@Giles:

Late August I am afraid.

Giles, is this still the plan for a re-stock?

Thanks!

[Giles]

Yes, I'll check on status…...

[jbwood]

Saw the restock, any chance for a 34 coming in?

Don't think I can make the 33 work with those thighs, being unsanforized and all.

Massive restock in about 2 weeks….

555 is such a great cut, wish I could justify getting the 555-02 and completely the trifecta.

[Giles]

It is not a trifecta now.  It's a fourfecta….

Perfect, thank you!

Hi there,

i own an IH-555-03 in size 32 and I am thinking of buying also an IH-555-02.
I think that a 02 in size 33 soaked should show nearly the same measurements as my 03.
Can I assume my thoughts are correct?

Thanks and best regards.

Just a gentle reminder - I'm sure you all have more important things to do than measure front rises

@SeruRitchi:

The Front Rise measurements on the sizing chart look like they might have been mixed up:

Size 30 - 10.5
Size 31 - 10.6
Size 32 - 10.0
Size 33 - 10.3
Size 34 - 10.5

@Giles:

Ouch, they sure do.  Thanks, we will check…....

Fixed!

been a bit.

few images before wash & then send them off for repairs (again)

they been a fun pair of jeans, but i'm trying to figure out what i'm jumping into next.

[babyknight]

[twin]

Madmonday your 555-02 jeans are wild lots of great fades on them

[zatenm]

Beautiful details!

[Giles]

Restocked…

[jbwood]

Just ordered! Excited for my first pair!

[Giles]

Just missed UPS, will ship tomorrow….......

@babyknight , @twin & @zatenm thanks all for the kind word.  i think i'll squeeze into these from time to time as the denim really looks nuts.  in hindsight i should of grabbed a pair of vulcans when i had the chance as I'm a fan of the fade of this denim, just didn't want another pair sitting around getting no love.

here's some shots just cause pictures seem to be lacking a bit over here:

Soaked my pair yesterday in hot water for an hour, agitating every 10 minutes or so and by my rough measurements, lost approximately:

• Waist: 1.5 inches

• Front Rise: 0.25

• Rear Rise: 0.50

• Thigh: 0.50

• Knee: 0.20

• Hem: 0.25

• Inseam: 1.0

Does that look about right or should I give them one more initial soak?  (I was kinda hoping to lose more than an inch on the inseam.)
