Can't help but think this would have been the best cut for me. Thread does require more pictures!

I am 100% in for a pair if you do another run Giles. I have spent the last few years buying jeans (and then selling most of them) trying to find the right fit and I have the measurements pretty dialed in, and I think these would be perfect for me. PM me if I can put a deposit down, I am not a regular on the forum and would hate to miss a restock. Thanks!

Islander. Best to complete this form. It's better than my memory…..

I was fortunate to get one of the last pairs of the 1955S. I say "fortunate" because they have to be the best jeans I have seen come out of Japan or anywhere's else. The finishing is great and so is the fit. The 21 ozs denim is unsurpassed in my view. So I hope there is a re-issue of this product! Thanks to Giles and the team at IH!

As Tinman once pointed out when you carry several pounds of 21 oz denim on your legs it needs to clamp around your hips to deal with the weight. The '55's achieve this security with the higher rise that locks over your hips, and you feel no weight at all. IH denim stretches. However on the '55's they cannot slip due to the lovely round drape off the hips and just become part of you.
