IH-301S

[Matt]

Post them in the sales thread for whatever you want… the worst that can happen is someone can offer you less.  They look to be in pretty good shape.  I can't imagine them going extinct, they're a Self Edge exclusive.

Oh, iunno, I assumed they were discontinued cuz it's pretty much sold out on their site. Haven't seen them update their sizes in a while.

You should call Vince. I believe their site only shows stock from one store, not all 3

[Chris]

This is correct- NYC and LA stores are not included in the online stock, only SESF.  Call the other two stores and if they have the pair you want, they'll be happy to take your order over the phone.  I know, I've done it.;)

And I doubt the 301 is going anywhere; it's one of Self Edge's best selling models.  I'm sure it won't be long before there's a restock.

@Giles:

so still only available from selfedge?

[Chris]

Yes.  It's Self Edge's exclusive model.

[Do7]

any difference between this and the 555 series..

everything looks the same.

[Giles]

Cut is different, plus the 555's have:

Selvage side seams
Lined rear pockets
Belt loops sewn into waist band
Arcs in blue thread

i was actually looking for the comparison on one of the member who posted it.. cant find it..

he had the 301 and the 555-1 i think..

Finn had 301's, and now has 555's. I believe he described the cuts as similar, but I think the 301's have a roomier top box, whilst the 555's are slimmer all the way.

that'd be me. i find the 301 a bit roomier up top (not a huge amount) but then more fitted below the knee due to the nature of the taper. on the whole i find the 301 a slimmer fit, but that's just based on my height & build, a taller person may have a different experience. my 301s are still my favourite cut but the difference in relation to the 555 is so minimal for me that i almost consider the 555 a selvedge out seamed version of the 301.

hope that helps
