[wariosss]

grey fade to black

[Mumbles]

nice evo fellas.  diggin it.

[madmonday]

new to me 555-03 SBG (sized 34 unhemmed at the moment)

[davito]

very nice colorway madmonday and those SBG's come along great on you

[Finn666]

great fit Mickey. perfect cut for you i'd say!

how would you compare (in fit) this 03 w34 with your 02 w36 btw.?

[madmonday]

thanks for the kind words.  this pair feel a great deal slimmer than the 36s & are close to the 8301s I had in a waist 34 many moons ago.  the measurements provided by CLJ were spot on as i can comfortably get in & out of these & even tuck a shirt.

i know folks say the 301 series from Self Edge & the 555 from the Denim Vault aren't the same cut, but they feel really similar on my legs & i'm a sucker for those selvedge id details.

strongly considering the 18oz 555s, variety & all that

[Finn666]

ah so you have both 21oz versions now (blue 01 and black 03), right?
(just to make sure to understand what the comparison is biased on!)

this cut is a golden one imo, cuz it makes even us bigger dudes look a tad slim at some point also it has the perfect waist/thigh/hem ratio (for me at least!)…

thanks again mike!

[madmonday]

correct, i have the  flagship denim 555 01 & these (555-03 sbg).  i like the devils cut better on my frame & just at my present station in life (these are really slim) . . . but i do agree as a bigger man i do not feel ridiculous when i look at my self in the mirror or walk down the street in these

V6power (Vincent) & the Denim Vault thanks for commissioning these

**just noticed the 18oz are gone baby gone in 34&36, that saves me a few dollars

[Finn666]

^and me
need to go for the 555 01 at some point then, also a w36 i think! should be the perfect fit for me…and i love that flagship denim to death

[lololol]

im loving the fit of my new 555 but this sbg denim is stiff as hell. should i be expecting to soften up at least a little?

[Giles]

It'll soften up a load

Here I thought that my 555-03 was softer than the signature denim in my DC4001 when it were new. They will get a lot more comfortable. Wear em hard.

[Finn666]

@Anesthetist:

Wear em hard.

yap, that's the way to go!…

[Finn666]

something around 3months:

[Snowy]

I was hoping you'd post something in here. They're looking fantastic for 3 months. Again, those combs

[T-Bone]

Wow, 3 months? I hope mine turn up half as good by that time.

You haven't soak them, have you?

[Finn666]

nope, nothing done to them except wearing'em!
the best thing about those is though, that they are versatile as f…! I can wear these every. no matter if it's for going out with friends, for going to university (not that I have to anymore ^^) or just to chill at home...just everywhere!

[thompsoa]

have mine coming friday, Finn, you didn't even give an initial soak?

[Finn666]

@thompsoa:

nope since there really is no need to! this denim is sanforized, so no soak/wash needed. unpack them and start to wear them immediately mate…enjoy!

[thompsoa]

thanks, since they're stated as being sanforized but unwashed, I was wondering if people (and if I) should be soaking them first…also what did you have your inseem hemed to because thats a perfect length...much appreciated
