IH-301S

[Giles]

Thank you MM.  So we redesigned it at Kiyas behest recently…...

[hollywoodisgood]

So Kiya clearly wanted it to be redesigned, are they a better jean because of it? I just got them yesterday at self edge LA, and my pair is made without the finished edge.

[Giles]

You will have to ask Kiya.  They're his jeans, his decisions…...My view.  Not particularly unless selvedge side seam is important to you, it isn't to Haraki.  G

Fit pics 301s

I have always liked my 301s  my first IH jeans :).

[tatmantall]

Finally picked up a pair and have some IH back in the rotation. Really great fit. If I have the chance and the lighting is decent I'll get some pics up later today. Admittedly it is quite strange going from the unssnforized denim of the sexi23 to the soft 21oz IH denim. Forgot how much these feel like wearing sweat pants.

[tatmantall]

Well…

If anyone interested message me, I have a practically new size 31 ih-301s I'm putting up for sale. Cold soaked 10 minutes dried and worn for 4 hours. The crotch is bunching up weird and I can't deal with it.

[superfuzz]

Haha! I have the same crotch-bunching problem, Tatman. It's only bad when I am sitting, so I just deal with it. Next pair of skinny IH jeans will be the 555, hopefully they won't have the same problem.

[tatmantall]

Yeah man it got under my skin quick. Couldn't deal with it, it's a very strange cut in they area everything else was perfect; in fact, I didn't really notice it until I had been wearing them a few hours and the creasing set a bit and then it made me bonkers.

I am contemplating this pair:

OR

The 555-02

Similar fits from what I can tell, right?

[Giles]

Similar yes.  Check the measurements out and note that Self Edge measure differently from us…

[hollywoodisgood]

Thanks Giles. I may be leaning towards the 555's… don't like the idea of crotch "bunching" that has been pointed out by a few members for the 301's.

I have both the 301's (old version) and the 555-01's in a size 36 and have never had any crotch bunching issues.  I like the 555-01's a little better because they are tighter on the sides of the upper block (hips) and have a slightly longer rise.  In general both are comfortable for me.

[shego]

Thinking of these as my next pair, I have 555-03 in a waist 33.. does anyone have both pairs and kept with the same size?

[666fanSF]

I just got a pair of the 301s and they are so comfortable compared to the "Devils fit". I can now access my pockets without pain and the heavier fabric really is softer. I can't wait to break them in and get some sick fades. I know the 666 is Giles fave but I have to say I'm really into these 301's

If my 301s had a higher back rise, by just an inch or two, I would be in jean heaven! They are great in any case. Enjoy.

You should try the the 555-01, I believe the rise is a little longer than the 301's.

They are for me.  And f it was a universal truism, then I would not have to bother making any other cuts and boy would life be easy (and seriously boring)…

[Finn666]

guess you should rename yourself into "301fanSF" then!? @666fanSF
