ULTRA HEAVY RAW - IH-1955-UHR, IH-666-UHR and IH-634-UHR

[Giles]

The rise on our version of the 55 is the exact same size as a pair of LVC 55 that I had.  I do not know what year the LVC's were, as I no longer have them here.

The rise will not change.  They are what they are and if you don't like it, buy something else.

If the 21/23 oz denim comes off, then I'd be up for a pair of the 1955s. Even with the enormously tall rise.

[Snowy]

I'm in! Will take a 55 as is thanks

IF it gets made, of course.

[Oleg]

634 for me,maybe a bit slimmer fitted with lower rise like vulcans would be nice

[Alex81]

555-01 for me… ::)

[tatmantall]

Scuba suit for me.

[Giles]

Here is Alex modelling a prototype for you Tat..

[tatmantall]

Excellent… Inseam looks like it will fit perfect!

[Simon]

+1 for the 1955, but please don't don't pee around with a cut Levi's got so right all those years ago.

Yep, I will take a 55, as well.  Looking forward to updates…

[FurattoHeddo]

Nobody has ever suggested not to make an authentic 1955 in this fabric, but when the idea was raised to create a possible "new" cut for this fabric, some of us, myself included, merely suggested the idea of a "modified" 55 cut, that's all… ...and yes I'll take an authentic 55 in this fabric ...

I was of the impression that the 1955S has been a fairly slow seller (pls correct if I'm wrong). In light of this, I'm surprised to see so much interest in it here.

[Giles]

I'm doing another run of 100 at the moment, so it is shifting - that'll be the 3rd run

[RocknRoll]

I stand corrected!  It just felt like that first run (collab with A***) hung around for ever.

Probably getting wayyy ahead of things here, but I'd like to place my vote for aged brass coloured hardwear with whatever jeans may eventuate.

[Giles]

You are right, the first batch flew out the door initially and then the balance hung around for ages.  Then I got more and more people completing the "tell me when back in stock" form, so I did another run and they moved pretty quickly, so another run is being done….

absolutely!

Yeah I love cinch back jeans, the XX501 1933 have buttons and cinch, but I think the '37 xx's are a much better shape, although they don't have the suspender buttons they are also the most coveted and most expensive originals to find, a truly legendary jean, great cut, love them.  However the '37's are a boutique number only worn by the hardcore, and Giles is/has to be all about supply and demand, so I doubt very much sorry to say that cinch back jeans would ever see the light of day unless 100 orders flood in.  In the mean time if you want to try them, try Freddies of Pinewood they do a very reasonably priced 40's style jean in 13.5 cone denim for you to try out, but for all you low rise emo's out there, beware they are high rise
