IH-555S-21 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo

[Frenchdenim]

Need your advice please
Love the feeling and cut of my 555-01 but as you can see….diaper butt. Probably too roomy on top or rise too high.
I think there is nothing i can do to remedy ....? Go worse with Time?
So sadly i planned to change for 777. What do you think?
I go for waist 31 and 5"70...

777 should be a slimmer fit around the but…...

777's are a good fit around the top block… Don't think you will experience as you put it "diaper butt"

Not sure if this helps but he had the same issue and a few posts below this one, he posts photos too. Definitely don't like butt.

I started a pair of these today. Love how soft they are. I sized very slightly bigger than my last IH555-02 and I'm hoping they will not stretch too much. They are perfect as they are! Great jeans

You will get some stretch out of the 21 oz, but it really is the best for comfort! Enjoy them.

And when they get too baggy toss them in the water give them a soak they will tighten up

Good plan! I'm hoping to give these a good beating first!

Anyone know when the next re-stock is due?

[Giles]

End of May…

End of May…

And will the 777 be restocked at this time as well? Cheers

No.  Early July….

Ok brilliant thanks.

I'm waiting for this pair to bed in a bit (only worn them for 5 days!) They fitted comfortably right out the bag but this makes me think they may end up looser than I normally wear. Matt from IH warned me about this but I was too impatient to wait as I really needed some new jeans! In other people's experience how long does this denim take to sort of calm down and find its shape?

Curious - how does the 555 fit differ from the 301s in larger sizes?

I have both in 36. The 555's have a higher rise and a more fitted top block. The taper is also more pronounced than on the 301. Overall, I'd say the 555 is a better fit for bigger guys, IF you can make the thigh work.

Neph - thanks for the quick reply!

Into heavy squats and deads. Need a 13.5 in the thigh with a nice taper to the ankle, and both of these seem to do the trick. Stats on the websites don't really tell you how the top block fits, though. I need booty room haha.

[neph93]

No probs. I too like the heavy duty compound lifts. Be careful if you're comparing 301 measurements from SE with 555 measurements from IHUK. They measure differently. 301's are defo more roomy in the top block. A bit too roomy imho and I have a fat ass.

Mine took precisely one drunken midnight walk from one country pub in one village to the pub in the next village.
