Probably has been asked a thousand times but can someone who wears both 888 and 1955 report on how the two compare in daily wearing, not just from a number / measurement standpoint?

@weftyarn to me the 888 fit is like a more fitted 55 id that makes sense. And alot would depend on the denim

@weftyarn The 1955S-21 thread has a lot of discussion and comparison between the 1955 and 888, starting with this post but scroll up/down as this one is kind of in the middle of the discussion: https://forum.ironheart.co.uk//post/878030. Also the cut comparison tool on the IH site is helpful if you are good at visualizing what diagrams look like in 3D (I'm not lol): https://ironheart.co.uk/pages/cut-comparison.

I can't speak to daily wear experience--I tried on the 14oz 1955 when it came out last year but didn't buy it, to my eternal regret, but I will say the 1955 felt like it had a lot more room in the lower thigh and knee. The 888 feels really slim on me, especially in that area just above/at the knee. Still not sure why I didn't buy them when I had the chance...

@twinning @steelworker thanks guys, the 21Oz 1955 thread was indeed very helpful.

New cut for me, and in the 18Oz , sounds exciting.

But the competition for my wallets attention is tough given the 409 release and the stuff announced for F/W

Patiently waiting for this restock (and also the 1955 - 14oz indigo). Are we still on track for September ‘26?

Thats the last we heard

[JP33]

@Alex thank you for the quick reply!

The 14oz's look good. But holding out for these.

[JP33]

@shelbington same same

[jmceachern]

I bought the 14oz version and now I’m thinking the 18oz will be a nice as well! Now that I have the 1955 cut my 888’s seem too slim.

[JP33]

@jmceachern same, need 1955 in 18oz. Maybe they’ll drop last week of October

[goosehd]

@JP33 these may have been pushed back as they no longer show October, but new product indicating that it’s taking longer than initially expected.

Tagging @ShopatIronHeart for confirmation.

[JP33]

@goosehd bummer but I appreciate the honesty

[JoshC]

@JP33 It does look like they’re going to be a little late, unfortunately. We’re just waiting for confirmation from Japan that they’re ready and en route to us, as soon as we have any updates, we’ll share them on here. At this stage, it’ll more than likely be sometime in November

[JP33]

@JoshC copy that, thanks for the update

[welfare_burrito]

I'm about to throw a tantrum man

@welfare_burrito Ironheart is doing everything they can do to get products out as quickly as possible. With the factories being at capacity, only so many products can be made in a timely manner. Everyone wishes that things were better, but for the time being, all we can do is wait.
