Hopefully this positive response grants the 1955 a seat at the table more often/consistently going forward!
I was musing what denims we could more 1955's with last night

Man I’m tempted by these but … I’m sort of tall and thin (6’2”-175) and I think the rise on these might be a little too high. I started with 666 in IH and love that fit (this coming from cheaper Diesel type jeans with a low rise).
I finally decided at my age (56) I’d try a more relaxed fit, so I bought a pair of 21oz 634’s. A year later, I’ve got 4 more pairs in a variety of demin lol.
Just not sure I’m ready to try these yet. Anyone with a relatively thin tall frame have any advice on how they wear?
-
I hope the OD version makes a comeback now that this is selling so fast.
-
The return of the OD or the debut(?) of the SBG would be so epic.
Either way, stoked these came back in any capacity. Skateboarders of the world thank you for catering to their insane legs.
-
Considering how quick these bad boys are selling out I’m really hoping for some fit pics here soon or some comparisons to other cuts

Hi @Brandrea - I’m 6’ 1” and 180 lbs. My inside leg is relatively short for my height at 33”, so I find the high rise kind of makes my legs look more in proportion! I also have the 888’s, and the 1955’s are definitely a baggier, more relaxed, retro fit with plenty of room around the knees. The rise is high - I’m wearing 1955 now and the waistband comes right up to my belly button. The high rise also avoids a gap on the back when I sit down which works for me. Just my opinion, but I’d say the rise is the defining feature which may or may not be to your preference.
Hope that’s helpful - Bill

Return of the 1955 UHR would be great

@Giles 16oz slubby would be a good shout.

@Bill-C Thanks a lot Bill, really appreciate this.
I have yet another pair of 634 incoming as we speak
… I think I’ll sit this one out.
