                  Wow !! Idon't know if I can resist these.
                  I'd love to see some fade pics of some pairs.
                  Have a pair of 634 OD, and the fabric is like velvet and just now finally showing that bluish black coloring the thighs.
                  The other problem would be I probably would wear these more than the 634's (a more relaxed fit) once I get them, and my poor 634's that are just starting to look incredible wouldd sit neglected lol
                  anyways, cheers ya'll, it'll be a tough decision also as I have yet to have the classic 21 oz indigo in the 555, my fave fit, I have the 25oz though in the 25oz ib…
                  thanks

                    Will they stay black forever? No
                    Will they fade nicely over time? Yes 🙂

                        Hi y’all I just got my first pair of IH denim and I need a fit check. I think the thigh to knee area is a little too tight but the waist and from the knees down fit well. I’m not sure if the thighs will stretch enough to a less extreme look with wear. Should I size up to a 30 W or get the 777 in 29 W? I think if I sized up in the waist it might be too roomy in the top block once the waist stretches with wear. The 777 seems like it might the solution to my problem, but after comparing measurements between the two cuts the thigh is the same and the knee is only .4 inches bigger/wider on the 777.

                          [mention]Rockett [/mention] if the OD aren’t comfortable right from the start. Size up. They should be soft and comfortable for you. They’re the easiest to wear but toughest to fade. Well worth the endeavor to size correctly

                            Finally a picture with some lighting!  I am trying to decide if these jeans are "black" or "indigo".  I am looking for a denim that starts off dark and "blackish", but fades to a denim "indigo" with wear and over time are truly a "blue jean".  I don't particularly look good in the black to gray world and was wondering if these are for me, or not?

                              This post also answers my question, but I must ask…were the faded ones machine washed?  The fading seems a bit softened and not high-contrast like I am looking for.  Will I be able to get the fade to black to blue high-contrast fades with these if I just wear them and don't machine wash them?

                                @tnjyoung The 21od fades softly no matter how you wash them. You might want to wait for the IH-555S-21ib if you want contrast fades.

                                  @tnjyoung Yes they'd undoubtedly been machine washed several times, in my experience the overdyed won't give you the 'electric' blue contrast you see with our Indigo/Black denim and as @peregrine mentions, might be worth giving a IB denim a shot

                                    Not gonna lie, kinda missed the roominess of the 805’s while wearing these today.

                                    I guess this is what I am looking for.  I consider this a very good contrast and I was wondering if these jeans will ever be able to get to this level?

                                        Those are standard indigo 21oz. Not overdyed. So the short answer is no. The long answer is maybe, if you wear them like Rox does (hard), and do it for longer.

                                            Well, I finally received my IH-555S-21od denim today.  I have a question…will the red "W" show up with wear?  It is covered in the black dye at the moment to the point it is almost unnoticeable.  I really love the red letter and hope it becomes more apparent as these lose color.  As for the fit, the 555 are my new jam.  They seem to allow a lot more room for "my junk".  My 666s seems to mash my junk down and I am all the time trying to pull on my fly to relieve pressure in that area (when no one is looking of course).  My 777s are the most generous, but I can't decide if it is because I ordered them too large, or if they are cut with a little more room for the family jewels.  As for the 555, while they are clearly "tighter" over all, they seem to stretch and give in the right places and just feel great.  I will upload a fit pic later this evening.
