IH-555-03 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Superblack (Fades To Grey)
-
How does this denim feel in comparison to 21oz OD? Similar stretch?
-
I think im going to grab a pair of these. Ive managed to lose over 25lbs so these would be a great reward for my hard work. These would definitely be the "skinniest" jeans Ive ever had but they dont look too skinny from the pictures everyones posted. I guess the only way to find out is to order a pair!

A pure wonder every day

Waist/thigh ratio is the thing. Knee measurements are also important. If you have comparitavely big thighs they can be tough.

thanks @neph93 the thighs shouldnt be a problem, I just dont want them too tight around calves and down towards feet. Im doing a bunch of measuring with some other pants ive got to try and figure everything out.

Research is important! Shout out for tips if you need them @deanclean

@momo73 they look great with the mint green sweater. Excellent combo.
Ditto that statement! @momo73 that's one inspiring combo right there.
Been watching these beauts for a while, largely because I have similar slim black jeans. Pleased to share I've swallowed that pill and ordered myself a pair in 30''. I usually take a 31'', so only 1'' down from what I have, but given the measurements, and the advice on this thread, I am hopeful they will be a match made in heaven and good to go out of that brown paper bag we all love to recieve. Thanks guys!

Hi Hi !!!!
you did well to take a size down, because I size 32 and on this beautiful jeans I am in 31 and I feel really good.
good reception -
Just got mine today. Love them. I was worried they may be too skinny but they are perfect.
-
@deanclean looking forward to seeing some fit pics! Stoked that @Graham found you the perfect fit.
-
Boy these are damn nice jeans. Having tried both 30 and 31, I personally found the 31'' a better fit overall, I only have my 31'' 555-XHS to compare against, and found them almost identical. The waist feels a touch higher, which I like. Looking forward to seeing these beauties fade in time.

Good demo pic @GC
Thanks @motojobobo hope you are well bud!
I've never found it easy taking pics at a desirable distance with the iPhone camera! For this one I settled on using the timer to give me a few secs to move back. Better still, and in the interests of quality, I didn't use the front facing camera, so totally pot luck.

These aren’t great pictures of the jeans but it’s all I got. I turned 44 yesterday and got into a bunch of social isolating Guinness. I think the blue flannel and the jeans are a nice combo. Had to shave my head yesterday too. With all barbers closed it was the only option.

Thanks neph.

Tempted on a Corona cut myself, saves hassle.

I know it’s been discussed but I’m still a bit confused. I know these are unwashed and there’s the potential for shrinkage but it seems no one has discussed when that occurs? If I were to wear these new for several months and get them nice and stretched out and then soak/wash them would they shrink down to close to their new measurements? Or would they shrink past the point of where they were when I got them? I normally buy a 34” waist hoping to stretch them to around 35” so if I did just that and then washed them would I wind up with a pair that fits similarly to when they were new? Or would I lose an additional inch and wind up with a pair that measures 33” in the waist?
