probably dumb question:

isn't that the SC '45? The Leepro. Or did they also a '55 Leepro?

[Max Power]

Great fit george!

It's SC '45. My mistake, sorry! I edited & corrected. Thank you for the clarification.

Georgeel , great photograph of contrasts …...looking forward to your
fade shots on the 666 later . The SC '45 I thought were Studio D'artisans at first , due to
the Lee style covered back pockets ......

Ouch! These jeans are two tubes of sandpaper… I cannot wear them now, it's too hot.
Although they are "only" 19oz of, are the hardest to break-in in IH catalogue.
See you this winter!

Good to know, Georgeel. I really want a pair but I'm waiting for some more wear on my lefty trucker before I pick up another pair of IH jeans. (May be a while!)

i find them quite comfortable.
wearing them today (20°C) and they work fine.
can't confirm the sandpaper and "breaking in" statement at all.
this is my favourite denim along with the UHR.

what size is best for me, if my true waist measurement says 32? will they fit me well if i have bigger/muscular thights? thanks!

[Giles]

Short answer no.  Muscular thighs and 666 cut are not a good combination….

dont imagine bodybuilder guy with really huge legs, im just atletic type with litlle bit larger thights as usual, lvc 501 1954 fit me well for example i only cant wear skinny jeans but slim fit are not problem. im just wondering how these fit in waist if i must go size up or true to size

@muffer - if you've got manly thighs then take a look at the 1955 cut. I've got a pair of the UHRs, and they're almost a slim fit on me.

The best thing for you to do is to take a pair of jeans that fit you well and measure them like this.  Then compare those measurements to the ones in the shop listing and get the ones that match best.

The only way to get a good idea is to do this.

my pair. Glad that I went sz. 36. 34 was more painted on than slim…
Amazing denim and quality. Nice details. Veeeery dark.
Sudos pair made me want a pair of this lht...

Was pretty warm today. Shirtless action in the backyard.

Hairy denim

Fit

@muffer  My LVC 1954s W34 L38 STF (now shrunk) are slim fitting, but not as tight as my W32 666 25 ounce. In 1955s I am W31 which is quite tight in the waistband but with full leg and thigh mobility. On the other hand I have no experience of the 19 ounce denim and see that Giles takes a size bigger than normal.

@Graeme Damn! I forgot to inspect your thighs

[jock1624]

Daynym ….you look a very slim chap and yet you went waist size 36 . I'm
usually a 33 in all my denims - but you have me concerned .

Love the darkness of the jeans ......enjoy .
