thanks for the kind word folks
beware of the rise to thigh ratio.
the jeans are dope, but the only reason i still have them is the blacked out W and the pockets . . . yes, I am special.
all the talk of the selvedge superblack & the cut they are going to end up in has me very curious

Do you find them a lot more snug in the top block than the 555?

I'm also interested in your take on that @madmonday

Thanks @Jett129 - Im curious because I find myself really enjoying the lower rise on my 8301, although I will admit to wishing I would have sized down now that i've put about 30-45 wears on them and they are about 2-3' too large in the waist and rather baggy in the thighs. I have come to think that the lower rise might actually fit my body type better, and while I love the 634 cut, they full leg isn't doing anything for my silhouette wise. I am convinced to try the 777 cut, but can't decide on the material. Right now it's either 14oz or 25oz, and while I know the 14oz might be more manageable, the 777XHS may be my only option for getting a suitable tailored look in the 25oz fabric.

I absolutely love my 777XHS. Took a while to break in,but totally worth it. When I got my tag 36 IHxVS 777s I asked for the jeans with the highest rise,which resulted in jeans with a 37.2 waist,which might have something to do with why they’re so comfortable. I never measured to see what the actual rise is.
-
@Appfaff FWIW in my experience having owned the 777 and 634 cuts, I would advise sizing up one to two sizes from your 634 size.

^thats my story and sticking to it.

@Appfaff, you can also have a look at the PIHXHS https://www.ironheart.co.uk/bottoms/pihxhs.html. I too was looking at the 777-XHS first but went for the Pronto collabo instead as their rise is slightly more comfy. They fit brilliantly by the way and are amongst my favourites.

Thanks @Jett129 - @Adam measured the remaining size 38 777XHS for me and the measures were VERY close to me 8301 when raw, since I kinda wish I would have sized down on the 8301, Im thinking after a soak and some stretch the 777XHS might actually be perfect.
@manufc10 - thanks for the input dude - I think as long as the rear rise is somewhat close to 16 and the thigh is above the 13.5 mark, I'd be good to go (hopefully haha)
Thanks @Dion - I definately did check those out based on a rec from @Filthy 21/23oz junkie , but I fear the leg opening is larger than I want. Plus, the waist is a big too large for me when I get the thigh measure right. I could size down i guess lol
-
Love mine but will never be able to wear a shirt tucked in due to the rear rise.
-
Still don’t understand why a motorcycle specialty line would have such a low back rise. Are visible coin slots in fashion!?! Lol
And granted i KNOW my body type is not meant for these but FTW!!!

^see what i did there…

This is a dangerously low rise on this cut.

No problem man. Keep in mind that with me saying that I have no problem at all sizing up and having a waist that's a bit loose on a low rise jean, I actually prefer it. If I didn't I wouldn't be able to sit down and my jewels would get crushed. The thigh fit is the most important to me, waist comes second…possibly even third. I always size for the thigh.

As I recall, this was a Giles directed model, so the rise may have been a decision based in customer based, fashion driven requests, (Western customers, particularly) rather than in Japanese biker practicality.
