IH-555S-UHR - 21/23oz Ultra Heavy Raw Selvedge Denim Super Slim Cut Jeans
-
thanks for the input guys. I'm giving them another go now before I pull the trigger on an exchange. I'm noticing if I wear them a bit lower, like just below my hips, the thighs have a bit more room, but when I sit the back rise drops a lot and puts a lot of underwear on display haha. if I wear them higher up (as it seems they are supposed to be worn given the higher rise?) then the thighs are definitely too tight. mind isn't made up completely yet, but it seems like my waist to thigh proportions just need more in the thigh.

@indigo_nico I’d say if you can’t wear them comfortably now, in any given position. They will be too tight.
I agree, a little discomfort to get a great fit can work wonders. But for me, the thigh is such an important factor. I’ve had jeans that every time I sit the thigh just hugged up so much it made me feel awkward and I ultimately stopped wearing those jeans. -
@Mizmazzle I think your suggestion of 888 might be the right move for me. I'm also headlong into a training block for cyclocross season, so my thighs aren't getting any slimmer anytime soon haha.

@indigo_nico 888 is an incredible cut. They are super comfy. You will never have to worry about plumbers ass, and they keep a slim leg profile due to the taper. The key it to size the waist as small as possible so that you keep a slim leg profile...then that added thigh width gives the leg some room to breath...
Funnily enough, I have 3-4 pairs of 888s....I have one pair of 555's....I want my UHRs to be 555 because I have pretty skinny legs...I kind of think the 888 and 555 will give a similar silhouette depending on the body type of the person wearing them...since you have thicker thighs you can get the similar look in the 888 (if sized properly) that I would in the 555. Just a little theory of mine...

Just scored a pair of these today. I have no experience with raw denim but Ross and Josh were super helpful walking me through sizing and stuff. I’ve also never worn the 555 cut, coming over from 666. Got em hemmed cause as Ross said, gotta soak and wash em anyway and at that point returns are no go. Stoked to see how they are
