      @Stuart.T:

      I'm 6'2" and 15st9lb. Pretty average height to weight ration. The belt line pretty much sits at my butt crack rather than the yoke! Sexy look for a hairy 44 yr old bloke…not a look the mums at the local kids soft play will dig I'm sure  😘

      I'm not suggesting that this is actually the case, but that almost sounds like a pair of 777's with the wrong patch. I have the 555N and 555-03 as well as the 555-01 and the variations in fit just aren't that big. Very strange indeed.

          @neph93  and @Alex I have 555N in as 38 and 555 03 in 36. Both have very good rear rise for me, with the 555N obviously being higher due to waist size. The sz 36 in 555 03 are perfect. They are my grail cut…more news after measurements tonight!

              @Alex  tag size 36. I just measured the rear rise on my 03 and Ns. Both come in at 17" (post wash). My 01s are 15 3/4 Pre wash, so as listed…I guess 1" makes a bit of difference and I need to grow accustomed. I will still give the 02s ago one day. I love the dimensions of the thigh, knee, and leg opening of all 3 555s I have.

                The rise does seem to vary quite a bit from fabric to fabric in this cut.  The 555-02 seems to have a much higher rise, especially in the rear.

                The rear rise shrinks more than most other measurements on raw/unwashed jeans, remember. (as it is bigger to begin with)

                Right, but even considering that they seem to have a higher rear rise.  My 555-02's still have quite a high back rise after their first soak but I didn't actually take measurements to be fair.  This is just based on feel.

                  Soooo…having lived with and worn these for a couple of weeks now, I have to say I was full of crap. Now that they have stretched out a little it seems to have made a world of difference to how the rise feels. I love em!  😉

                      That said, it's been 27-28 degrees Celsius here this past week…decided NOT to wear them quite every day

                        I'm ordering a pair of 33's in this cut. In your experience (fellow members who own a pair), has the thigh measurement shrunk after washing/soaking? I've read with other 555's that has been the case.

                        They're coming in next week and the thigh measurement is the only one that concerns me.

                          As per the product page:

                          Sanforized and one-washed - no shrinkage to be expected (with reasonably careful washing and drying). The waist will stretch out approximately one inch with wear. All other dimensions that are put under pressure will have a tendency to stretch proportionately to the stretch in the waist

                            The IH flagship 21oz denim does not shrink so you’re fine. The 18oz denim used on the 555-02 does.

                              Got it! I guess I got confused a bit. Thanks for the clarification gentlemen.

                                Damn, I've just seen there has already been a restock in March. Now the waiting game begins…

                                  So I picked these up in a sz 34 which fortunately came in a smaller waist size.

                                  At first they were a little difficult especially with the thigh (looks like 12.5 is my limit), but now they've gotten comfortable after several weeks of consistent wear, they're definitely my favorite pair.

                                  Evo pics after a few more months of wear to show a bit more contrast. Cannot wait for the new 555's later this year!

                                    Are they still due for a July restock? I was too ambitious last time and sized wrong ::).

                                      I’ve been wearing them fairly consistently since getting them in mid June. Nothing too fancy to photograph yet!

                                        Looks about right for 21oz. Stick with them though. 21oz fades give me the warm fuzzies.

                                            Sizing is consistent with the previous production run….
