Yep @Bobcat-Sig I definitely agree with everything @pechelman said above ^^^ . It wasn't something I paid a lot of attention to for a good long while, because I really didn't understand why it mattered, but in retrospect I do think it has a lot to do with how the top block fits. A lot of times I'd buy a pair of IH that'd fit well in the waist, but the general top block was just too snug and I'd be thinking "I don't get it — why is this happening?" I don't think the rear rise is everything in that equation, but it's definitely part. I'd say like most dimensions, measure a pair of jeans that fit you really well and try to aim for that. The good thing is like Phil said, you can get a bit of stretch out of it.
My girlfriend would definitely agree about butts! lol. I think that probably has a lot to do with why I don't wear skinnier jeans — if I had chicken legs and a smaller ass, I could definitely pull that off a lot easier, but these are the cards I was dealt
That helps. Thanks. I sometimes wonder if I over-complicate this as we're talking about garment measurement... and not launching a space shuttle. Still, I work to understand it so I can line my closet with properly fitting denim.
I blame the Viking blood that dominates my half-Scandanavian heritage for needing that big top block and unskinny legs.
-
No two people are alike for sure. I've got no rear end and long skinny legs. Without a snug top and a strong taper, a very visually unappealing silhouette ensues. I tried on Wabash(freenote) pants ONCE. Couldn't put them back fast enough.
I wanted them so bad until putting them on. The sales guy at the store in Columbus was hilarious. "Where do those pants stop? They just keep going"
-
I can't find the 301 information anywhere. What's the type for that? There's a 8301 OD at SE it seems like a 555 with a teeny bit of taper? Same thing?
-
@CosmoSix5 The 301’s are a self edge exclusive cut. Here is a thread for the sexih22-301s
-
When will measurements be posted? Do they go on sale on the 31st online also?
-
@gmk83 they’ll be posted this week prior to the release and yes, as far as I know they’ll be available online simultaneously.
-
@popvulture great thank you
-
@sabergirl yikes. Not for me. Thanks!
-
FWIW, I think Kiya mentioned that this run of 301 will have a higher rise than the usual 301

@kiya
will you post measurements here ?Yes, definitely. We'll post size charts in a few weeks. I've been wearing the 633 for a couple of weeks and love it. We changed both the 633 and 301 slightly from their original forms and gave them both a slightly higher rise.
-
Hope the 301 rise increase is only very slight 🫰
-
All the measurements are up so everyone can stop asking! Those 42s in indigo look perfect for me!
-
Size 36 in the 633. Hopefully they have plenty of stock at SELA for the party!
-
Was really looking forward to these but can’t take a risk unfortunately as the sizing seems off again. I have been a consistent 32” in every IH yet these are coming in at 33”. Are they correct?
-
fabric looks really nice, pity the tapered look with small hem isn't for me.
-
@Alex thanks - will check out how they measure and keep 🫰
Stange though as they seem to measure the waist the same. Have been 32” in 777,555 and 666. Are these likely to differ?

This is pretty useless info, to be honest. The only way to know is to compare apples with apples. In this case, what I would suggest doing as you are trying to compare SE measurments is to find a pair of jeans you own, that they still sell, look at their chart for those jeans and see if you can measure their way to get similar results, then compare to the new collab measurements
