IH-1955S

[gbougard]

A limited edition in 25oz. I know Giles said no wont happen but that doesnt mean I cant fantasize publicly from time to time…

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.

Exactly. Pants worn at or above the natural waist are not only more comfortable but alot less of a hassle to wear. They stay in place.

I am, and maybe you can give me some insight, not sure how much the high rise vs low rise distinction makes sense as regards Japanese pants. The denim products we admire from Japan are produced for the local Japanese market. The patterns, therefore, are cut to fit men who are smaller on average than western men. A pattern made for a men who are on average five foot two will necessarily look funny on a man six foot two. If you look at the specs of a Japanese jean in say 36 or 38, the front rise for a man five two would be high rise, but they would be ladies hip huggers for a Gaijin six two. On the other hand, a 1955 golden era jean pattern, cut for men who average five ten would be completely out of proportin on men of smaller stature.

It would be great if the Japanese makers started to draw patterns specifically for a Western clientele. The resulting patterns would be alot like the sublime 1955S.

I think a lot of the IH patterns are already tailored for a western clientele… I can not express how much I love Iron Heart's love for high rises...

I don't post much in the forum much but wear IH all day long all the time. I've been looking for these in a 34 and need them bad! I signed up for the early notice on the forum but if anyone has a pair they need to part with I would be interested.

[Giles]

Been working on it today.  I should give H the numbers in the next couple of days…In the mean time, is the new patch designed by VO.

[Seul]

Simple - classic - love it.

[Finn666]

so there will be a full restock shortly, yeah?

[Giles]

Well, I am not giving Haraki numbers so that he can choose his next lottery ticket…..

[Finn666]

good lad!
no 35´s though if that is correct?!…

[derivative666]

Looking forward to this

[Giles]

No 35's I am afraid with these…..

[Finn666]

okay np!…

[trapp]

I said I needed a 34 above, but a 33 might work too

[Ironminded]

I haven't missed the restock on these have I?

The larger thigh measurement on these is exactly what I need!

[Giles]

No, we have not got the restock yet, everything got delayed whilst we wrestled the 25oz Beatle Busters out of the factory…..

[Ironminded]

Hey G - Is there ever a chance of doing this cut in the 25oz?  I'm hoping to have the funds for a pair of these when you restock, but would love the chance to pick up a pair in the 25oz as well …

As someone who hits the gym regularly my legs have a hard time fitting into the standard IH straight cut jeans [read; it looks like to much sausage stuffed into to little casing … ]

[Giles]

No plans for 25oz in these I am afraid…...I may reappraise the situation pending how the restock of the 21oz sell......

[Finn666]

^ you already know when it will be ready? (yeah I know about the difficulties u had with the MBB's and all! just asking.)
