Fascinating... I'm endlessly entertained by the Japan/UK dynamic. Thank you Giles and Alex for pushing to get this cut a much wider rollout, it's a pretty badass cut!

Yeah that’s pretty interesting. The 1955 is by far one of my favorite cuts from IH

@jfive67 if only they came in Black fade to gray

Someone may correct me if i’m wrong, but i feel like the 1955was a fairly slow seller in the early days. Perhaps it will fare better now there’s been a shift in popularity away from very slim styles and towards straight or more roomy cuts.

[Giles]

Correct. @Alex and I tried to kill it a few times when we were attempting to reduce the number of cuts we sell. We reasoned that the 888 cut was so similar, no one would miss the 1955.

So it stayed, and very thankful for that....

I never did get that bloody thing to work

@Giles if you do, let me know. I’ve got a million questions to ask.

@Giles I know that feeling. In a previous job, on the windowsill behind me i kept a "comedy" pair of glasses and small snowglobe. Anyone that moaned about our forecasting skills we referred them to try on our "hindsight glasses" and use the "crystal ball".

I find the hindsight glasses were used much more. Everyone's quick to have an opinion of what you SHOULD have done.

@RocknRoll My thoughts exactly. Skinny jeans are out. Trends come and go, but fashion always centers back to the classic silhouettes and comfortable fits. So glad we’re back!
