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

[David_pll]

These have caught my eye, currently wearing tellason ladbroke grove which seem a similar fit. Any experience with those compared to these?

[Bluegrass]

measure them up and compare - I've heard good things about tellason, but they are most likely much lighter fabric than the IH21oz which means they will behave differently.  this is a great cut, great fabric - you can't go wrong really.

@Goyón what's your waist size? I've got these in black, in a 38 and the hips, thighs, and waist are very roomy. Past the knee is where they get tight. Compared to the 25 oz. 666s in a 38, these seem WAY roomier in the top box.

My tellason are 14oz so a slight difference, will measure up and compare! Thank you for the advice.

Giles, thank you!

Sizing table updated:

[grabby22]

The sizing table looks exactly the same as the old one to me.

[Giles]

I updated the old one

[grabby22]

Ahh I see. Do you still have the old one?

Thanks G.

@Goyón:

Does anyone have an opinion on the 555blk?  They sound like unique faders with the sulphur dyed warp only the waist to thigh/knee/hem ratio seems like a sketchy proposition even for a bird legged dude like me.

Goyon, this is how they fit and I wouldn't say I have bird legs.  They definitely are roomy and comfortable at the top and taper way down… I think some who don't know the cut unfairly characterize it as a "skinny" jean.

My current jeans measure up at 32, would you advise a 31 or 30? They are a tagged 29, thanks again.

(i'll try to stop asking so many questions, ha)

[grabby22]

I'd go for a 30. The new batch runs smaller in the waist than before and the 21oz can really stretch a lot.
If you're considering a pair from the older batch, 29 would be perfect.

[David_pll]

Thanks again, I'm trying to fight off temptation but they look great!

[grabby22]

No prob and just get them mate! You'll be amazed at how comfortable and breathable the 21oz is…

Also eyeing up the IHSH-86, so attempting to prioritise on which should be purchased first (or both)

[Giles]

Both, then you get a starter kit discount.  Does that help….? 

[grabby22]

I prioritize my jeans over everything else.
Jeans are the most important part of an outfit to me. So getting a great pair of jeans would be my first priority.
