IH-555-xx - Super Slim Jean

[Anesthetist]

Thanks for the rushing to get them hemmed and in the mail for me Giles. This is my first pair of IH in this denim and my first slimmer fitting IH jean so I'm eager to try them out. It looks like Thursday will be my lucky day.

Please post some fit pict

Yea can't wait to see these on another body frame.

@dave:

Assuming this is the SBG, how about a dark blue denim (somewhere between OD and XHS) with that same edge in this cut?

Well, we're doing 18oz raw and 21oz sanforised…...Both have the same white/red/white selvage signature...

now i really am confused wether to get this or B01 

[zwer]

I'm feeling the same way. I know I need a 21oz pair to complete the triumvirate, and I was certain it was going to be the Beatles, but now that I've lost a bit of weight I think these could be amazing.

Now, I might be a total idiot, but these AREN'T in the shop, correct?

[Giles]

Correct - not completed yet…..

So Giles, what do you think? Should I go for the SE301's? or these bad boys?
I know you mentioned a bit about the difference, but I'm curious to hear your opinion.
I'm a sucker for those red line…. such a hard choice.

@DD: Looking really nice how the denim is settling down for you..  How is the fit now?

Wait until the measurements are published and then see what you think…

These will be in Hachioji on Saturday and Sunday being Quality Checked.  They will ship to me on Monday.  I will not put them on sale until I know that The Denim Vault has their shipment - which they may get before me anyway).

These are the 3 versions:

IH-555-01 21oz Sanforised Indigo Selvage Denim
IH-555-02 18oz Raw Indigo Selvedge Denim
IH-555-03 21oz Black SBG Denim

relly looking forward to the measurements…!

Ty,  they have settled really nicely.  When I first tried em on they were tight in the upper thigh.  Even though I was immediately able to pull them all the way up and button them I would have to constantly pull them up as they would want to bag off the ass.  This was caused by my thigh area being so tight which would pull on the fabric downward from walking or sitting…  That has now loosened up and they are staying put.  That's the major difference from the 301 cut which has plenty of room in the top block.

definitely going to be my next pair, currently working on my beatle

Looking forward to the thigh measurements.

As you say, of course…..

[mr.dead]

ah man, I'm having such a hard time deciding between the 18oz and the 21oz.
I love the IH666S denim, but I feel like I need a pair of the 21oz to be a true IH pro. An Iron Head lol.
The 21oz won't need an initial soak, correct?

[Giles]

Correct…

[mr.dead]

@Giles:

Correct…

I'm sure they'll both be awesome, but I'm going to get a pair for a daily rotation between my IH666S.
18oz. or 21oz.?
