IH-555-XHSBB - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Cut Jeans - Black/Black

@FlavourFade they suit you very very well my friend congratulations

[FlavourFade]

Thanks a lot buddy @Luijim78

I love that they a little more relaxed than my indigo ones or the 555duckys

[Luijim78]

@FlavourFade yes it's true even in my pair of 777 I noticed that they are more comfortable than XHS and XHS i/b, but that's fine also because they are extremely heavy and stiff at least at first.

@FlavourFade I think once you hem those they will look spot on!! That length you have them flipped up to looks like the perfect hem length.

Also, just my opinion, but I wouldn’t taper them. They are really clean looking as is!!

@FlavourFade That's my all time favorite black denim,and I had thoughts of doing some slight alterations,but as time went on,they just got so unbelievably comfortable,that I felt like I didn't want to mess with perfection.

Yeah I agree Jett by far! I know it’s a lost cause but I’d love a restock. I love my 777s I need to start thinking about wearing my new pair in 555. I’ve actually never had a pair of 555s

The dark tub thing is crazy cool

@kkibbey23 these in the 555 are not as narrow as a typical 555…more like a slightly slimmer 888….which for me is pure magic!!

[Jett129]

@kkibbey23 These in the 555 cut ,very much,remind me of my old Levis 501s.

@FlavourFade looking good

UPDATE: arrived in the UK hopefully in time for my birthday nice little present for myself.

[FlavourFade]

@Jcaz6996 finally!!!

[Crispy Heron]

@Jcaz6996 - my pair have arrived in the Uk too. Super excited.

[Jcaz6996]

@Crispy-Heron yesss…. Just hope there’s No customs charges

[FlavourFade]

I did not have any charges

[Crispy Heron]

@Jcaz6996 - let’s hope not. Package is in Edinburgh (delivery centre) so I think (although I may be wrong) that means it has been released by customs and does not incur a charge?

[Crispy Heron]

Package from Indonesia has just arrived!

[Luijim78]

@Crispy-Heron finally!!! I'm happy my friend, I hope you like them

[FlavourFade]

Congrats buddy!! Hows the fit?

[Crispy Heron]

@FlavourFade - I think you made the comment about the robustness of the buttons on these. I have both XHS and Sib but my thumbs are definitely getting a work out on these. Fit is okay. Think the measurements will work - perhaps a little less room in the waist than I had hoped but doable. But trying to get the buttons in is a tiring, sweaty and painful task. Then we will go for the soak…

[Mizmazzle]

@Crispy-Heron you can stick a screw driver or some similar device in button holes and work it around to loosen up the button holes.

[Crispy Heron]

@Mizmazzle - thanks. Good tip. I have a handy bottle stopper which I tend to use. Currently trying to loosen up the top button - hopeful that it is working.
