IH-1955S-18 - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim "1955" Vintage Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo

@Tago-Mago suppose I meant 634.
That page has great info, thank you

[Tago Mago]

@corralitos I find „compare“ to be one of the most useful tools on the website. Every product page has the compare button, which allows you to select up to 4 items and display the measurements of those items at a glance. Super helpful when you are deciding on cut and size

Oh heck yeah, 1955 in the 18oz is a perfect combo. Stoked to see that these are in the pipeline.

[freepickin]

Hell yessss bring on the 1955 rollout! I'm gonna grab these and wash the crap out of them for the proper vintage fades

[Go For Chill]

@corralitos IMO, the two fit very different on body. The 643 is lower rise, slimmer in the thigh, and yet wider in the hem.

[steelworker]

@scooter that’s what Im thinking. 55s are a good fit for me.

The Iron Heart 634 icut s based on the 1966 501 cut, the Iron Heart 1955 cut is based on the (wait for it...........) the Levi's 1955 cut....

The closest Iron Heart cut to the 1955 is the 888

[jfive67]

Hell yes! Been waiting for the 1955 return

[Myopic1]

I love the 18oz denim, but I’d love to see these in 16oz slubby denim too at some point!

[FlavourFade]

@Myopic1 they exist in 16oz slubby, the shop Vancouver exclusive

[corralitos]

@Giles
All helpful. Since all I have are the SE exclusive 633s (and love the fit), that's probably what I should stick with (and maybe the 634s too).

I'll actually be near a Self Edge this weekend so maybe I'll try on a couple pairs to test.

[Luke_is_back]

Would it be available at IH Germany?

[Giles]

Ask them. Always best to ask the people who really know the answer.....Also, if they are not going to stock them, you asking them if they will, gives them valuable data as to what their customers want....

[Luke_is_back]

@Shane-B Would it be available at IH Germany?

[deathbydenim]

Excited to see how these compare to the 888. I let go of my SE 633s since the rise didn’t work for me, I can prolly make an 888 work but this looks interesting

[Shane B]

@Luke_is_back No, we haven't pre-ordered these jeans yet.

[henrip]

Super excited that this combo is going to be real! I’ll definetely need a pair ️

[John1968-75]

The 1955 cut in 18oz is the Grail.
Definitely getting a pair.

How does this 18oz fabric compare to the 21oz or 14oz in terms of pliability, stretch, fades, etc?

[AdamJ]

@welfare_burrito these are my 2 cents so other opinions may vary

pliability - crunchier at the start than 21/14oz but soften up pretty quickly

stretch - similar to the other two, depends on how much pressure you subject the denim over time but 1" approx in the waist to be expected

fades - depends on how often you wear, how much you wash. Some of the coolest fades we've seen are 18oz. You can view them here
