IH-555S-21 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo

[akubolo]

its not that its "too big" but its too pliable all over and a tad loose in the waist. im really new to these 21oz signature denim and im shocked that it is so much more comfortable than my previous raws (even though it is listed as 21oz). maybe that is why im a little bit insecure about it.

ill take ur advice finn! we'll see the fit in a couple of days

Looks great, don't move those. Downsized would look ridiculous.

[akubolo]

yeah i thought so, this 21oz just feels too good that it makes me insecure lol

They look good to me too, if they're a bit loose in the waist but fit in the thigh and legs, then I'd put on a belt and not worry about it. I know what you mean tho, being fairly new the the 21oz denim myself I was pretty surprised to see how soft, pliable it is. Definitely not a bad thing tho.

[akubolo]

im in love with this fabric  my most comfortable raws by far

[derivative666]

They are not raw. The 555-02 is raw

The fit looks great - wear a belt if the waist is a bit loose - if they are a bit loose in the waist, they won't stretch - this denim stretches when you apply pressure.

akubolo, the fit looks good to me. The waist might shrink a little when you wash them - mine shrank by 0.5" (1.3 cm).

I think downsizing would look too skinny and tight.

I just ran my 555-01s through a hot wash and dry to see if it effected the jeans at all. They definitely tightened up a bit in the waist and thigh. The stacks look a bit more natural. I'd say there was a very small amount of indigo loss over all. I'll do up some photos tonight hopefully.

How hot was that wash mate?

[akubolo]

seruritchi and bluegrass, it is getting more comfortable each day. we'll see the fit after a month wear

In a moment of rare sunlight, I was able to capture some nice contrast:

And, the repair:

Beautiful pair of jeans, Satria! Nice contrast. The photo with the bike is slick.

JerUrsidae & satria great images of your jeans.  from the pictures i take it you are both in the under 34 waist club?

here are images of me in the over 33 waist club (34 to be exact & hemmed short as heck, i would take an extra inch, but that's what every guy says)

forgive the sort of sh!tty flicks

[Mild7]

Good fit Mad.

Love the pic with your GSX Satria.

[JerUrsidae]

@ madmonday: yep, you guessed it, size 28. I have mine hemmed pretty short as well, and no regrets for me.
Everyones's 555-01s looking damn fine.

[satria]

Bingo! My 55501 running on 28" waist but actually my waist is 27" (hahaha yup, it's too skinny for a guy. Just 175cm and 52kg) when i purchasd it i cant find any 27" size at ih website or the denum vault indonesia. Unfortunately. So, it's make the silhouette like a just-slim cut at me. Too roomy at the waist and thigh :p
Indeed, 21oz fabrics give more stretch…..then you can guess how it's too-big for me after months

[madmonday]

i swear i'll get an image up in good light before 2014 is out

555-01 & i'm still dressed like an "adult"
