      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.

        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.

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

                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:

                Tagged Size 30/36
                Waist 32"
                Back rise 15"
                Front rise 10.25"
                Thigh 11.2"
                Knee 7.5"
                Hem 7.25"
                Inseam 38"

                  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.

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

                      why so serious?

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

                          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 🙂

                            So I gave these another soak over the weekend and it has made a huge difference. Much more snug around the waist. My advice is to soak these in HOT water for a good long while.

                            Incredibly - and I am somewhat flabbergasted - zero issues with the buttons and no left leg twist. Is this just "one of those things?"

                            Anyway, all good. Gorgeous jeans, great fit for the long skinny legged and the denim is of course classic 18oz sartorial sweetness.

                              Giles, is this still the plan for a re-stock?

                              Thanks!

                                  Saw the restock, any chance for a 34 coming in?

                                  Don't think I can make the 33 work with those thighs, being unsanforized and all.

                                      555 is such a great cut, wish I could justify getting the 555-02 and completely the trifecta.

                                            Hi there,

                                            i own an IH-555-03 in size 32 and I am thinking of buying also an IH-555-02.
                                            I think that a 02 in size 33 soaked should show nearly the same measurements as my 03.
                                            Can I assume my thoughts are correct?

                                            Thanks and best regards.
                                            David
