      My view was that a pair of 1955S in a STF fabric would be more true to the original spirit…

                    No reason to think not.  March is long way away (which is good) but there is a lot to do (which is bad)….

                      Are these meant to achieve the anti fit? The peeps in this thread have that going real nicely, but they are of a certain build. I'm assuming The Wild One look is the inspiration?

                        Not particularly, just a pretty decent homage (imo) to one of the most popular 501 cuts…..

                          Is everyone clear that the rise on the 1955 cut is about 2 inches higher in the front, compared to the 634S. That means, if you have a gut at all, don't even dream of these. I've heard several people bitch about the MBB rise and these are even crazier, especially in the larger sizes. If the 634S is your "golden" cut, then this would be your "shit" cut. Not trying to be a dick, just trying to get the facts out there.

                              The cut is very flattering on slim and tall….

                                        @simonc he is not hating at all, he doesn't want to see someone pick up a cut that will not flatter them or be comfortable on them. You are missing his point. MikeC is extremely knowledgeable about fabrics, cuts etc… He was just trying to help out. He sometimes may come off like a dick but, he is one of the most genuine, giving members on this forum.
