      I initially thought we would stay with the same sizing as that is effectively what they have always been.  Upon reflection, we may teak a bit, but The IH-555-01 1nd IH-555-03 need to stay similar to each other

        It would be great if they could become more true to tag size in the future. I also think that right now the back rise is disproportionally high for such a slim cut. The latest runs of the 555-01 and 555S-16 have very good 555-measurements. A smaller hem for a consistent taper would be the icing on the cake, though.

          I understand.  The issue we have to deal with (and there is no way of doing it elegantly, that have thought of), is having stock of 2 completely different sizes in the same lot number.  We can do V2 (like we did with the IH-526L), but that is not an ideal solution….

            It's actually a good idea if I may say so: after the current 555-03 has been sold out you could rename it for the new run as e.g. 555-SBG. Buyers could more easily identify its denim then and the tweaked cut. Same with the 555S-21 to become more streamlined with the rest of the line-up.

                Great suggestion. And start getting the SBG’s once washed too, maybe?

                  Makes sense, most of the other models are and unwashed SBG isn't pulling in the 'raw' market so there is no tangible benefit.

                    Tangible? Is that like a cross between a tangerine and an apple? I like apples.

                    Maybe so. Maybe not

                      Tag 32 shrink results are in:

                      That is quite encouraging. I’ve held off wearing mine as I bought without taking shrinkage in to account and they are a little too slim already. But I should be able to get away with that much shrink for the time it takes to stretch out again.

                        It’s what happens to you gibles if you forget the sunscreen.

                              @neph93 You can minimize shrinkage when you wash them at 30° C or even cold. Soaking them prior to washing is mandatory. So far I lost ~1,5'' inseam at 40° C and ~1,77'' at 60° C on my pairs. I'm sure one can even reach the full 2'' if anyone dares to nuke them at 90° C. So one more vote for onewashed SBG here.

                                  is that you modeling?

                                  Division Road seems to be a pretty dope store the collaborations with Viberg are always dope, fingers crossed they get a nice collaboration shirt/jean/vest/something with Iron Heart UK.

                                    Yeah, they used me for the IH release shoot!  And def agree that an IH x DR collab would be guaranteed epic.

                                      That 555 cut suits you very well @Dishelveled.  Congrats on the modelling gig too!

                                        Thanks, man!  Been super stoked on how they fit/look and had a blast seeing how the pros shoot.  Time will tell, but the 555 might be my favorite cut (sorry 777)
