IH-1955S - 21oz Selvedge Denim "1955" Vintage Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
@Graham the 14oz sounds cool! Is there a page or thread where I can get detailed descriptions of each IH denim fabric? I found the thread for it on here with the link to the Duck and Denim Fabrics webpage, but it just shows basic specs, as opposed to how the fabrics wear and feel and break in. I looked at the Hall of Fades too, which is super amazing and helpful, but I was more looking for descriptions of how the fabrics act and perform etc. Thanks!

@thevintagefuture not currently, we had a really bad page that didnt do a very good job of describing what you are after that we took offline a couple of weeks back. We are getting close to launching a new version of the site, and the new version of this will be visible once we migrate. In the meantime email us, or ask any questions you have on the forum and we can let you know

@Alex ok cool! Thanks for the help! Looking forward to that new webpage.

@catdad1 these look great dude! Can't wait for mine too arrive. Since I'm completely new to Iron Heart, I'm curious how the top block compares to 888. I was under the impression that 888 has more room in the top block cuz of its slightly higher rise. But is 888 slimmer even though the rise measurement is higher? Like, maybe 888 has less volume, small hip width or something?....Anyways, they look really nice! I was planning on trying 1955 and then 888 after that haha

@thevintagefuture my 888s spoiled me with room in the top block and a higher rise compared to previous jeans I've had over the years as a bigger thigh guy. I didn't expect these to have even more room than the 888s. It's not a significant amount more but it's something. Also after wearing 888s all day today and sliding on the 1955s I noticed a slightly higher rise in these. The rise and extra room below the knee are welcomed these days.
-
Also I'm comparing my 888 21od to the 1955 indigos so naturally the ODs will have smaller dimensions all around to their indigo counterparts.
-
@catdad1 thanks for the info! And that's interesting what you say about OD. I'll have to check out some OD next time I go to Selfedge.
-
Really excited for my pair to arrived hopefully today.
Looking great @catdad1 !! I think after wearing 555 almost exclusively the 1955 will be a new world
-
Just got my pair!! I am very excited about the 1955s. The wide cut is definetely something I need to get used to, but the comfort and mobility in these is amazing. Looks relaxed on me but not toooo baggy I think. Maybe I could have gone with a longer length than usual because I think a cuff suits them, while I am more a uncuffed guy in my usual 555s.

I think those looks great @FlavourFade id be very happy with a fit like that. Missed the 1955s this time round but will try to get some when I can
-
@jerkules thanks! I look forward to wearing them a lot outside work and when the 19L/xhs get too warm
-
Really gutted I couldn't catch a pair this year, especially now that the fit-pics are starting to come up.
Take the dive...
-
They fit great. Look comfy too. I’m probably around your height so it gives me a sense of what they’ll look like on me. Mine just shipped wooohoo.
-
Got mine yesterday. I couldn’t resist wearing them to work, though that wasn’t actually the plan. Comfy straight off the bat.
-
@FlavourFade They look great on you, dude! Nice fit! And they'll fit even better as they soften up and get some washes. I'm a fan of the single cuff cuz it cuffs without covering the eventual roping you'll get. Love showing off that roping. I love the simplicity of the single cuff.
Mine are supposed to arrive today too! Hopefully before the sun goes down so I can post well-lit pics like yours haha
-
@Mister_Brue nice hahaha....Yeah, I'm telling myself I'll keep these stored for a few months until I progress further with some current fades I'm working on, but I have a feeling that once they arrive they're going to take over my entire fading game by force LOL. I think I won't be able to resist wearing them, like you with yours.
