Hi,
Will the inseam stretch out or shorten (honeycombs) with wearing?
Thanks

Here is my first pair of IH denim.
Initially, after researching a bit, I thought I needed the 888S-21. However, after trying them on I found the 888 was too roomy in the top block, at least for my body shape. I returned those went went in the opposite direction and pulled the trigger on the 555S-21 and I'm quite happy with them. Maybe a touch more taper from the knee down would be spot on for my taste.

Agreed that’s a great fit

Some progress pics of my first pair of iron hearts after it’s first wash about two years of wear with 4 soaks and 1 wash.

Light blue sashiko thread looks great

Sorry for perhaps some old tired questions.
I'm about to buy an unused 2nd hand pair of 555-01 and I'm curious on this fit, since I already own a pair of 666s 21.
On paper, as someone mentioned earlier in this thread, the specs don't seem that different from the 666s 21, but apparently they do look slimmer around the legs and in the hem.
Aside from a higher rise/roomier top block. The Hem/leg opening seems to be roughly "only" 1 cm difference from my 666's (20 cm). Is this enough to really show any difference?
And second question: Is the fabric the exact same fabric as the 666s 21oz?

Thanks sabergirl and Kasi,
I'm afraid they’re a little too baggy for me though. I'm torn because I'm used to my 666s 21 in size 32. These 555's are 33.
The roomier top block make them comfortable, but perhaps a little too relaxed? I know I couldn't wear these without a belt.
What do you think? I might put them up for a trade looking for a pair in size 32 if I end up never wearing these.
And here's a couple of images of how my 666's fit.
