IH-555-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo

How difficult is it to stretch these back out when wet?

[AdamJ]

@BD81 I have worn my denim a bit damp before and it did not stop the waist stretching, after all, all you need to do is apply pressure. Not very comfy though 

[BD81]

My size 33 634 measure a little over 36" I was going to go with size 34 in theses. Good idea?

Go of your jeans that fit you best.. if your in between sizes go size up.

The size 33 have stretched to almost 37. If I go with a 34 that measures 35.2 will I get pretty much the same stretch out of the 25iz that I did OD 21oz?  I am prob overthinking this like i do everytime I'm about to cop something

It does not stretch as readily as OD 21oz, nor as much. It will also loose half an inch or more with a soak/wash.

In general, XHS will end up slightly larger (by about half an inch), than published measurements after shrinkage and stretch has happened.

(Edited for clarity).

I think you might be better off going with a 35,that measures 36,so that you have some wiggle room with stretching and shrinkage. They,also,won’t be so uncomfortable while you’re trying to get them stretched out.

Thanks Guys! I asked for the measurements on largest 34 and smallest 35. I will go from there.

[BD81]

I'm a bit nervous going from 634 to 555 but I'm getting tired of the bigger leg opening.

@BD81 - have you seen the 633-XHS from SelfEdge?  It's the top block from the 634 with a taper leg.  I'm wearing my pair right now.  They are definitely roomier than the 555.

I also have a pair of 633's in 21oz.  Both have an 8" leg opening.

[BD81]

I did look at them briefly but my size was sold out. 13" thigh opening on these will be plenty for me it's almost what my 634 thigh was marked at. What size are your 555 xhs ?

[Kasi]

You need size 35 stop panicking… 36 you said 35 size is your answer... or get Iron Heart to measure you a pair...

@BD81 - my 555-XHS is a tag 34.

Here is my last measurement after a cold, hand wash:

W: 36.2”
FR: 11.5”
BR: 16”
Th: 12.85”
Kn: 8.65
Ins:  34.45”

[BD81]

Thanks bro…. looks like a large 34 should be good.  I'm almost considering sticking with the 634 and to save myself the headache that goes with trying to find a new fit online.

Get the measurements done because each run is different in measurements
Iron Crew will help find the right pair.

I wish bro. I will get the measurements on monday.

[Kasi]

Now that make sense.. get the measurements Monday, you know I have two pairs of these beauty… fews years back 777 25oz came after the 666 25oz then came along the 555.

I rock the 777 and hammer them in six months, but found them annoying in low waist and tight..

Here pictures of 777 sold them off soon as the 555 came along.

[BD81]

Now that is a good looking pair of Jeans!  Comparing the measurements here,  I think the 555 size 34 should fit similar to a size 33 Levi's 501 that I own.
