i'm an advocate of big men in little pants -PAUSE-

hahahahaha
sized 36 & pretty roomy, but an overall slimmer outline than any denim i own.  could of done 34 & stretched them a bit, but my nuts would of be pissed. no hem (at the moment) as these are my sloppy any time fit.  will see how long these hold my interest.  forgot how nice the flagship denim feels on the legs.

It's the shirt in that photo that really gets me…Gawd I love that damn sparkle western!

[madmonday]

it is a great shirt.

can wear it all 4 seasons (if you get seasons in your neck of the woods).

MM are you able to throw up some actual measurements of your pair?
after owning and wearing the 555-03's for some weeks/months now, I'm really hooked I have to say!
thinking about these and/or the -02's…

[oliverward]

@motiono - check the 301s thread for comparison.

having had the 301s, 666 & 555, i'd say if you liked the 301s go with the 555 as the cut is closer than the 666 - which has a bigger leg opening.

^^^On everyone´s opinion on my fit. The pics do not do the fit justice at all.

I´ve come to realize though that they´re a bit snug in the ass/d**k area, not to tight on the thighs or the rest of the fit, but I apparently got a "big" ass… :-\

If anyone is interested in them I am listening to offers. IH-555-01 Size 36.

Could you tell me, what type of material are jeans (Ih-555-01) made of? Is it Zimbabwe-cotton?

[Giles]

It is not Zimbabwe cotton.  We moved away from Zimbabwe cotton a few years ago when we could not get it without the indigo used to dye it had a green hue to it.  We now use cotton sourced to our specifications from USA, no one can tell the difference (well me, Haraki and the IH crew can't)…..

[Snowy]

I like this as part of the IH story. Even though Zimbabwe has the rep as the best cotton, Haraki-san wasn't content to rest, and when the product started changing he found an equal quality source in the USA, which resulted in a product impossible to tell the difference. Epic.

[Giles]

What I like about it, and it exhibits itself in a variety of ways with Haraki, is that he specs something and as long as the spec meets his exact requirements, he is happy to go with it.  Here are a couple of examples:

G.  Are these Tee's loopwheeled?  H.  Dunno, I need to check
G.  Where in USA does the cotton come from?  H.  Dunno.  It matches my spec, that's all I care about.
G.  Is this shirt made from selvage chambray?  H.  No, it did not need to be from a functional point of view and I like the texture of this chambray more than any other

Whoa, those look way skinnier than the PROXIH09. I thought the Pronto collab would be slimmer. Good to know.

Him and okisan can pull this cut off well

i think it will look more beautiful if the arcuate colour is gold or bronze
