IH-555-xx - Super Slim Jean

[Giles]

Correct - not completed yet…..

So Giles, what do you think? Should I go for the SE301's? or these bad boys?
I know you mentioned a bit about the difference, but I'm curious to hear your opinion.
I'm a sucker for those red line…. such a hard choice.

@DD: Looking really nice how the denim is settling down for you..  How is the fit now?

Wait until the measurements are published and then see what you think…

These will be in Hachioji on Saturday and Sunday being Quality Checked.  They will ship to me on Monday.  I will not put them on sale until I know that The Denim Vault has their shipment - which they may get before me anyway).

These are the 3 versions:

IH-555-01 21oz Sanforised Indigo Selvage Denim
IH-555-02 18oz Raw Indigo Selvedge Denim
IH-555-03 21oz Black SBG Denim

Ty,  they have settled really nicely.  When I first tried em on they were tight in the upper thigh.  Even though I was immediately able to pull them all the way up and button them I would have to constantly pull them up as they would want to bag off the ass.  This was caused by my thigh area being so tight which would pull on the fabric downward from walking or sitting…  That has now loosened up and they are staying put.  That's the major difference from the 301 cut which has plenty of room in the top block.

definitely going to be my next pair, currently working on my beatle

Looking forward to the thigh measurements.

@zwer:

I'm feeling the same way. I know I need a 21oz pair to complete the triumvirate, and I was certain it was going to be the Beatles, but now that I've lost a bit of weight I think these could be amazing.

Now, I might be a total idiot, but these AREN'T in the shop, correct?

yes, i know i need a 21oz and kinda fell in love with the beatle, been savin up and now here comes this one. And it'll be easier for me to get this pair, of course this will be available at the denim vault right?

As you say, of course…..

[mr.dead]

ah man, I'm having such a hard time deciding between the 18oz and the 21oz.
I love the IH666S denim, but I feel like I need a pair of the 21oz to be a true IH pro. An Iron Head lol.
The 21oz won't need an initial soak, correct?

[Giles]

Correct…

[mr.dead]

@Giles:

Correct…

I'm sure they'll both be awesome, but I'm going to get a pair for a daily rotation between my IH666S.
18oz. or 21oz.?

[Anesthetist]

Just got these in hand and shot some fast pics before heading off to the gym. For reference, I'm about 6'2 and 160lb. Sorry for the poor lighting in advance. I quickly tried doing a small cuff or letting them stack and I think I'm leaning toward the latter. However, the black selvedge lines really are stunning and really deserve to be seen.

[Dirty Denim]

Yes u are so right..that selvedge needs to be seen. They are so badass on you.  You definitely scored considering they are a one and only pair with the yellow stitching.

[Deebo]

So these are now the 555-xx instead of 555-TDV?

[Dirty Denim]

I believe G did that so they all can get grouped under this thread for now?

[Giles]

No, they are the IH-555-03.  The thread is titles xx so that it can cover all 3 versions.  Perhaps I ought to lock this thread and start 3 new ones….

IH-555-01 21oz Sanforised Indigo Selvage Denim
IH-555-02 18oz Raw Indigo Selvage Denim
IH-555-03 21oz Black SBG Denim

[J-IV]

Good idea
