      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?

                          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 Iron Heart cut for me.  Also in the pictures - an iron heart thermal, and legendary Rainbow flip-flops.

                          @Big Jeans – Just seeing this… I myself am 6'6" and about 190lbs. I've been wearing the 634 cut exclusively. What drew you into this one over, say, the 888 or 634? Would love to hear your experience.

                            I have pair of the 634. The rise is not high enough. It fits me like tight, poorly fitting skinny jean.
                            The 1955 are amazing. The higher rise works for the 6'6 frame. And they are slightly baggy, but not to much.

                                My pair shipped today! I've been gradually getting into looser fitting jeans over the last few years after wearing skinnies for the longest time. This is my first time going with a 501 inspired pair and I'm excited to try out a vintage cut for the first time.

                                  Same boat. After enjoying what happened when I sized up on a pair of 463’s, my next pair will be a toss up between 1955’s and 634’s.

                                          Now the only thing that would make 1955 even better is to see them released in both 25oz AND the new slubby denim.  We can dream now, can't we?  That is a fantastic fit @weedyweidenthal and like @neph93 my own evolution has been to wider.  It took a long time for me to realize finally that 555 was far too tight in the thighs.  The slimmest I go nowadays is 666.  634 look normal to me and the rest kinda' skinny-ish.  Enjoy, you're gonna love this.

                                            +1 for 25oz at least, I suspect this would be my ideal pair habing tried the 634 and 888, but I don't need any more 21oz at the mo
