IH-1955S - 21oz Selvedge Denim "1955" Vintage Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo

[neph93]

I’m tempted to try the 1955 myself, but I do like a trim thigh and I’d have to size down a lot to get that on this cut. The 888 works fine sized down one in that respect and I really don’t need to leave that cut ever.

That being said, every fit pic I’ve seen with this jean looks brilliant.

Here are some pics of 1955. They are about 4 years old. Sent them off to get repaired before they got totally trashed. These are my favorite pair, fit is amazing…just scoped the OD pair as well.  Hope some more folks decided to pull the trigger on this cut.  Amazingly, underrated in my opinion.
Bonus fit pic from my trip to Japan this Nov(the last time these were active)

ps, sorry for the blurry photo of the back side its the best I had and the jeans are back at IH being fixed as we speak.

My 1955s. This was the only Jeans I owned for 2 years, probably 10 hot washes with detergent by hand. Just threw them in the washig machine for the first time.

What's up friends, I've got a great pair 1955 that are beat to perfection.
I love this cut. I'm 6 foot 6 inches, 215lbs.  This is the best IronHeart cut for me.  Also in the pictures - an iron heart thermal, and legendary Rainbow flip-flops.

Those are stellar. 21oz. denim is the best.

I'm planning on ordering these jeans next week. I am a short guy, so I am going to need a hem. Is it safe to hem as is or should I wash them first?

I'm really excited to get these. I have two pairs of 634s but the rise is too short for my 44 waist size. These line up perfectly with my regular STF 501s.

Perfectly safe to hem. The 21oz does not shrink.

I've always wondered about these jeans for myself… I was in-between 634, 463 or these for my last pair and went for the 463. Very happy with them but still curious about how these will work for me.

Let us know how you get on!

Thank you! I am really excited and look forward to finally having a high quality version of my beloved 501s!

I'm not seeing my post, so I'll ask again. Forgive me, it's a double post.

Are the back pockets on the 1955s in the same place as the 634s? If not, are they higher up or lower? The 634s back pocket placement is perfect and any lower would look bad on me. Thank you!

While I doubt they are identical, having worn both, I’d say they dare similar.

The 1955 “may” Be there in more traditional spacing as the 634 are actually slightly further closer to the inseam stitch than “normals jeans” so you can wear a wallet on a bike. These are a higher rise, so expect them slightly higher?
