IH-1955S - 21oz Selvedge Denim "1955" Vintage Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo

[Spring Son of Light]

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?

[Giles]

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.

[Giles]

The cut is very flattering on slim and tall….

I wasn't gifted this, mofucks work to maintain it every day. $350 jeans in the closet are a good motivator to make sure I can still fit into them…

Yo Mikec these are based on the longest run Levis ever did and were the highest selling jeans in the history of jeans, why you hatin' bro?  You don't even own a pair.

[derivative666]

@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.

[simonc]

Maybe its just as you say "he comes off like a dick" np as you were.

[Chris]

Certainly not the only member here for whom that could be said.

[Megatron1505]

Stop talking about me FT 

[derivative666]

^I said sometimes acts like a dick, not looks like one!

[Seul]

Shit - I don't get to laugh at that 

[Megatron1505]

Neither does FT.

[Seul]

He's a bit of a cock - he'll laugh nonetheless…

[Chris]

I am, and I did.

[TinMan]

going to be selling a couple items need to make room for a 23oz 55 cut in my closet.

Edit: went for the 634
