      @Dion:

      I like the new completely sewn-in patch and its design. Much better than the almost Triple Works one on the 555N for example. But isn't that a bit of an overkill having 16 and 18 oz vintage denims which are almost identical? With the (dying) 17N in between?

      Yes, we think so. The N does not sell too well, so is on it's way out. The 16oz, to me, feels more breathable than the 18oz. Not all about the fades  😉

        I find that the variance in a single ounce of fabric weight is quite noticeable in this weight range. Usually the case with anything, while the difference between 23oz and 21oz isn’t so obvious

        Case in Point:
        16oz weighs 114.25% of the 14oz
        18oz weights 112.5% of the 16oz
        19oz weighs 105% of the 18oz
        21oz weighs 110.5% of the 19oz
        23oz weights 109.5% of the 21oz

        Just stating that at the lower weights, a 2oz difference has a much more substantial difference in actual heft.

            Some fades of the sample after a couple of months of wear in rotation with others. (Winter was too cold for these at times!)

                        Am usually at 37 in the waist so I should be able to slot into a tag 36 and stretch.

                          Can always look for the largest. We have a few pairs of all the main sizes

                                    Wow, this is the first time 555 looks doable in my actual size. Good waist/thigh ratio. Hopefully an innovation in the cut? I’d love to see similar measurements on the upcoming 25 oz.

                                      36 looks perfect for me. Damn these are nice.

                                      Maybe so. Maybe not
