        When comparing the 555 with the 666N the differences in sizing aren't that big on paper.
        In my opinion the 666 is a little too wide, so i am thinking about buying the 555 in size 36.
        Does anybody can help with this decision?
        Regards

          I own two pairs of 666's and three pairs of 555's. The 555's are slimmer than the 666's because of the taper. That taper starts at the thigh on the 555's so although the thigh measurements are often similar to the 666's, the 555's fit snugger because the middle and bottom of the thigh is slimmer. They sit much tighter at the knee and continue to taper so if you have big calves be careful. The only other major difference is the rise, which is higher on the 555's. If that is not to your liking then the 777's might be an option.

            Hey @IH666N - the largest difference is going to ht the Top Block and from the knee down. The 666 are going to be more trim in the top block, but fit more straight to the hem from the thigh. It's slimmer than the 634, but not a heavily tapered jean. I feel that the 555 have a similar top block (if not even more relaxed than the 666) but about 4 inches from the crotch, the 555 start to drastically taper down. The knee measure is the most indicative of this. My size 36 666XHS have a knee measure of about 9.5 (fresh out of a wash) while the sz 36 555-02 measure about 8.625 in the knee AFTER a few months of stretch. from the knee down, the calf and hem opening of the 555 will continue to taper, so the hem "should" always measure under the knee measurement, no matter how short you hem them.  The 666 should taper the same %, but will always leave a larger hem and baggier calf area than the 555.

            Hope that helps!

              Thanks for all the hints!
              Compared to my best fitting Jeans the 777 seems to be my choice just from measurement.
              Will give you an update when i have bought one.

                        Very nice, @RifJedi

                        You should definitely wash them, though. It will help them last longer and they'll probably look killer after a wash.

                            I'm afraid a seawash, with all the salt and sand that entails will only shorten the lifespan of the jeans (and fail to clean them in the process). Your jeans, your rules though. And they do look lovely.

                                @Giles, I'm sure this has been asked before, but are the 555-01 going to be made in the 25oz.?

                                  No.  The slim cut we decided to do out of the 25oz is the 777

                                    Just over 2 years old but I haven't worn them since last December. Had a couple of washes in the machine.

                                        For larger sizes I find this the best cut for someone looking for a slim fit looking jean.  I think the added rise really helps.  Personally I wish these were made in more denim styles.

                                          This is hands down my favorite IH cut. The only ones I haven't bought yet are the 18oz raw denim.
