      @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

      Did yours arrive already ?

      Yeah my experience is that after about 90-100 wears the 21oz gets to the "worn in" level as they start to show fades and get very soft. I think I will try to wear them to work once it gets too hot for my heavier denim. I just bought a pair of 555s-18 for the summer but I like to try the 1955s as a fade project . The 21oz denim, especially in this roomy cut makes a great all year round pair of jeans with being breathable but still having the heft

          These '55 beauties arrived last night! I cold soaked them to get the starch out a bit, after I took these pics. They feel perfect on-body, but hopefully the appearance of a wedgie will dissipate once I wear them a bit and the waist and seat relax. Here are my pre-soak measurements for size 32 below. If I was as careful as the Iron Heart crew in my measurements, they would honestly probably match the IH sizing chart perfectly, which I'm finding can't be said of every brand. Pretty pleasantly surprised with IH meticulous QC...Shout to @profdbrk for being my sage guide toward this brand for the last few years until this day haha:

          Pre-soak measurements:
          Waist 16”
          Inseam 29.9” (got them hemmed from 35" to 30" at Shop Vancouver)
          Front rise 12.25”
          Back rise 15.25”
          Hip 19”
          Thigh 12.25”
          Knee 9.5”
          Hem 8.5”

            Just got my 1955s in the mail and I love them - they are everything I was looking for in a jean. I have a long torso and fairly muscular legs so I was really looking for something with a higher rise. I was wearing 888s prior to this and liked them a lot but the 1955s seem to fit me so much better. The rise on the 888 was pretty low on me. My ass doesn't hang out of these and I feel like I'll be able to tuck a shirt into them without looking so sloppy.

            I was worried they'd be too baggy in the lower leg but they have a really nice silhouette. Super stoked about these.

            Pictured are the new 1955s and the 888s that are being retired.

                        @EdH I second this! bit of facial hair jealousy going on hahaha

                        also @mdavidson I love the western sorta vibe you have going with the jeans - it's absolutely killer. I hope to do the same.

                            @jischwar I'm pretty sure they do

                            @thevintagefuture thanks man! I really like this cut. I'm excited to see how they wear in. I think with the rise they won't pull so hard on the crotch so I'm hoping I can get more life out of these. My other ones were on their last leg lol

                              Safe to say, after all these fit pics, that I’ll be keeping my eye out for the 14oz drop …

                                    @jischwar No, it was $22 for me. I'd prefer included for purchases but ah well.

                                        Looks like @rydor confirmed that there is in fact a charge

                                            Despite the hem charge, the jeans themselves are currently about $20USD cheaper on The Shop website vs the IH website for some reason. $361 vs the standard $385. So that's strange, but cool for us haha
