1955S - 21oz Selvedge Denim "1955" Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

[scooter]

My 2¢... Top block comparison

1955 = flat front
888 = pleated

[TinMan]

@scooter yes, good comparison. 1955s and 888s cuts are equally very nice cuts for people who like medium to high rise, and different enough silhouette you can definitely justify having one of each in the arsenal. Can’t wait for the 1955s 14oz, and then the OD. Fantastic!

[FlavourFade]

Are these exclusive to IH uk? Love that cut from pictures but can't really say if I like it on me without trying on.

[AdamJ]

@FlavourFade No, TJ at the Shop Vancouver also carries the cut. Not an exclusive

[FlavourFade]

@AdamJ thanks! Any german shops which ordered?

[AdamJ]

@FlavourFade not on this run I'm afraid

[FlavourFade]

@AdamJ bummer

[Mister_Brue]

@TinMan Good info. Is the rise noticeably higher on the 1955’s though? That’s what’ll do it for me, even if I size up and belt up for a looser fit.

[TinMan]

@FlavourFade what size are you?

[FlavourFade]

@TinMan probably a 35 or maybe 36

@AdamJ

Hey Adam, at the risk of being irritating, any sense of when we might see this run of the 21 indigo 1955? Thanks! I’m signed up to be alerted, just wondering.

[AdamJ]

@drewfonse Ask away mate, I appreciate people are looking forward to them!

Our ETA from Japan is the end of this month, but as you may have seen on the forum, these ETA's can shift so, I would say any time from next week to Mid December

[drewfonse]

@AdamJ

Fabulous, thanks!

I’m considering them because I want the highest rise possible. I love the 888, but I sometimes feel like I want an even higher rise. And maybe slightly more room in the top block. I’ll wait and see on the measurements

My pair I've been wearing for around 2-2.5 years pretty consistently. The 1955S is by far my favorite fit.

[briaan]

To anyone who has both 888s and 1955s, did you go with the same tag size? Looking at the existing size charts it seems like the closest match to my 888s in 33 would be the 1955 in 32.

@briaan

We would advise to wait for the new run of 1955 to arrive and be measured. Chart may need updating as sizing can vary between runs and then we can really give you solid advice.

[briaan]

Aye aye, cap'n. I'll be patient.

[TinMan]

These are the best high rise out there!

[scarfmace]

@briaan I own both the 1955 21oz and a couple of different versions of the 888, all in size 34, but as Adam mentioned, always best to wait for the size chart.
