IH-555-02 - 18oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo

[yoda]

Any idea if/when there might be restocks of the sold out sizes? I'm really interested in a pair of 31's and the 18oz and would be stoked to get them a little worked in before the blazzin australian summer kicks in.

Late August I am afraid.

So I took the plunge and bought a pair of these in a 33w.

This is them post soak, which really helped tighten things up a little. The 33w were slightly too big in the top block and waist but a soak took all that in a bit. The thighs are a little tight at the moment but with some wear these will loosen off. The waist could be 1" too big but it doesn't bother me too much.

I really had to base the size of the thigh measurements. But I'm very happy with them and I love the fit.

Yes, you can always wear a belt.  Deferring to thigh measurements is a smart move.

Managed to find a store carrying a size 31 and they arrived today!

I tried them on at work and thought they felt a bit looser than I expected given the measurements posted by everyone and the size chart. I think I'll have to size down, no biggy, the fabric is pretty shweet. Was just a bit bummed I may have landed a pair running pretty large…was looking fwd to busting out an IH suit over the weekend.

Measured them a few times for accuracy, would you say this is normal variation?

Pre or post soak?

[yoda]

Pre soak

[sellhimechoes]

I thought my pair was quite big pre as well but post soak they began fitting better.

I think the rear rise should really be an inch or so shorter though, just for a tighter, cleaner fit.

[yoda]

Well it just presents me with a much higher rise than expected. I was thinking I'd be under 15" after a soak but thats not gonna happen at 15.75

Again, its not a big drama just glad the store has a 30 I can go down to. Was just curious about what the consensus was on the measurements. Feel lucky I could find some of these before its too hot in Sydney.

@yoda who is stocking ironheart in Sydney?!

[yoda]

Sorry I should have clarified, not in Sydney, I got these from Cabinet Noir in Perth. Capsule in Sydney used to, but no longer.

[Schlunta]

@yoda ahhh k, that's where I got my 555-02s from! Wicked store

[yoda]

Resized to a 30 and received them today. They feel a lot roomier than than it looks in these pics, but I'll still be cold soaking versus hot. Prob wear them a bit before soaking too just to soften them up a bit.

Pre soak:

Waist 32"
Back rise 15"

I think those will be perfect with a soak and hem.

Thanks man, wearing them around the house yesterday I was feeling like the thigh was f&%$^ tight, after a soak they could ridiculous. Have you guys found the thigh to come back any post soak? The weave seems pretty tight.

[daynym]

Fit looks great. Maybe you ll get half an inch of stretch. But I would´t expect that much.

[yoda]

Unfortunately these are just too tight in the thigh so if anyone's looking for a size 30 hit me up. Darn it.

[Fergz]

The 555 02s arrived in the post. Wearing them post soak now and fit looking good.

Incredibly I buttoned all four buttons first time. Is this what happens when you get IH experience and intuitively know what to do or did I just get lucky?

Anyway, first day of wear today. The sun is shining and the denim is good
