      I'd put money down if the rise on the 55s will be lowered

        I LOVE low rise. They can sag just a tiny bit and not look saggy

          Lowered '55 rise is more normal than "low," it wouldn't be a '55 anymore but that's not such a bad thing….although I seriously doubt they're going to test a new cut in 21/23 oz.

            Well, even my LVC 201 don't have such a long rise as the IH 1955. If the FR was around 12" and the backrise around 15,5" (size 33/34) it would still be long and I think also historically more acurate. And much more wearable. It could also come in a different name to differ from the current 1955.

              The rise on our version of the 55 is the exact same size as a pair of LVC 55 that I had.  I do not know what year the LVC's were, as I no longer have them here.

              The rise will not change.  They are what they are and if you don't like it, buy something else.

                If the 21/23 oz denim comes off, then I'd be up for a pair of the 1955s. Even with the enormously tall rise. 🙂

                    634 for me,maybe a bit slimmer fitted with lower rise like vulcans would be nice

                              +1 for the 1955, but please don't don't pee around with a cut Levi's got so right all those years ago.

                                  Nobody has ever suggested not to make an authentic 1955 in this fabric, but when the idea was raised to create a possible "new" cut for this fabric, some of us, myself included, merely suggested the idea of a "modified" 55 cut, that's all… ...and yes I'll take an authentic 55 in this fabric 🙂 ...

                                          I was of the impression that the 1955S has been a fairly slow seller (pls correct if I'm wrong). In light of this, I'm surprised to see so much interest in it here.
