The Real McCoys

[Snowy]

Simon, I think you may have touched on why Finn got grief on his IH-555-03's, that's heavily tapered and there were many comments about the thighs. Sounds like sound advice to me.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

It's an advice I constantly give him
Not only his thighs but also he has wide hips which amplifies the look in the upper thighs.
But that man is an athlete and very good in shape. But some spots can't be helped (and you can't exercise away your bones).

[Finn666]

rule #1: if I like the way everything fits, it's all good..
thanks for the same (positive) critic as always but I think you guys really shouldn't waste your time over this any longer…
It is what it is and the way it is now, works perfect for me!

thx for taking notes

[tatmantall]

Do you Finn, what you like matters most.

^ o/course buddy thanks for the words up top btw.! McCoys is awesome…you really need to see that stuff in person!
the day before going to VMC, davito was wearing the 991XH and they grabbed my attention right as he stepped around the corner!
went in to VMC the day after and asked Freddy for a nice pair of jeans for the summer months, unsanforized, low/mid rise and with not too much excess denim from knee down (as almost every pair of IH or others has!)...he grabbed those and the 004's from the pile and just by looking at me, he even grabbed the right (for me and freddy at least!) sizes!
buttoned'em up and was happy as a motherf... I think you can imagine

[tatmantall]

Indeed sir! I'm very picky when it comes to fit (thus I have a number of pairs that have stayed fairly untouched over the years because they just don't feel quite right) but its a great feeling and, at least I, know immediately when putting a pair on if they are ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. Congrats on a great pickup! I'm gonna have to try to see some in person much to my wallets dismay!

Bro, I am sure Giles would be kind enough to send you a pair of 55's to try, if you don't like em you send em back.  But if you haven't tried them you won't know.  With regards to feedback; people only say this as they care, you are a free man and we shall not discuss this again, peace and love.

[Finn666]

it's all good my friend! just don't want this to be the top topic in a place where the garment itself should be king

and tbh. I really wanted something else as IH to be my next pair…after years of only IH, I'm really looking forward to something else this time! the 55's might be a dope cut, but not want to roll with the 21oz denim again...looking forward to the 14.75oz of the JMC's!...

[Max Power]

^you should make this your signature However, I like the fits, with a stronger feeling for the 004.

[Finn666]

yeah the 004 really was perfect from the get go, but the denim of the 991XH is straight up gangsta!

[simonc]

Get some raw Levis 501 XX 55 cut, lol.

[Finn666]

[davito]

Both the RMC lot 004 and JMC 991xh are outstanding pieces, i own both and couldnt be happier. Cool stuff Rafa

Looks great David.

[Finn666]

after just talking about'em, I went back to VMC yesterday and finally bought'em

here some measurements + pre soak & pre wash fitpics:

…gave'em a quick soak before putting them into the washer (cold wash)!
they're now drying but I already wonder how the outcome is going to be!

[mclaincausey]

Those look great on you Rafa. Love the color.
