Great fades on yours as well @beef_bonanza. Just scrolled up and saw yours, missed them the first time.
I didn't realize the fade potential on the SBG fabric. Might have to add these to the list.

Thanks guys! Highly recommend this denim found them to fade way faster than indigo.
@manufc10 got them in January and wore them a handful of times. But started REALLY wearing them to work in June almost everyday especially on days where I’d be doing physical labor. I don’t keep track of washes they get washed as needed. Either weekly or monthly depending what kinda materials I’m working with or what I’m rolling around in.

@manufc10 @RoxRocks86 I fully agree. I love this denim to bits… It fades really better than most of the indigo I know. I was mainly using it as office pants until now and washed only once. Can't wait how they evolve when put to real usage and more frequent washes…

Almost pulled the trigger on some 555-03. Glad I paused. Black jeans are a wardrobe ESSENTIAL

I am so looking forward to some 888’s in this denim.

Need some advises between 555-03 & 777S-od 21oz..?
i don't have chance to try in person and nearest store could far couple of thousand kilometers. i had IH denims & other heavy weight denims like before but managed to reduce several kilo and weather didn't allow for Heavy Weight denim since i moved to Northern Territory, Aus. currently, i am wearing Nudie Lean Dean and feel like i need a pair of black/very dark indigo selvedge denim.I try to find local online stores but no one has those models. My current Nudie Lea dean is 32/32. I’ll try to update the measurement soon as well.
Thanks in advance.

21oz sbg denim in the 555-03 is going to start out more rigid and true black, then get softer and fade gray. 777 od will be blackish blue and softer from the get-go, then fade to a more blue color as the black over dye goes away.
As for the cuts, like @neph93 says, they’re completely different. You’re going to need to learn how Iron Heart measures their jeans, then measure your nudies, and compare to the size charts.
It takes time to do, but good measurements of your favorite pair can tell you a lot about how jeans are going to fit.

Washed every weekend this month. Pre-dominantly right-handed.

Thanks for your inputs, @sabergirl & @neph93.
Following are the measurements from my current Nudie and closest tag sizes of 555-03 & 777S-21od based on waist measurements. only things of 555-03 which makes me hesitate are rises.
And another thing i need to ask IH team is the measurements of Hem openings if i need to hem 555-03 or 777S-210d to 80cm inseams.

Good work with the measurements. There are quite a few things to consider though. Firstly are those Nudie dims talen when newly washed or after wear?
Secondly, the 555-03 will shrink some with a wash or hot soak. You might find you need to size up one. Finally the 21oz OD stretches quite a lot. I really think you’ll need to size down one.
