      Is for me. Wouldn't dream of dropping big bucks on some without it. But then I am

      You simply can't have your cake and eat it.  It is impossible to give stacks of taper and retain the selvedge ID as per my explanation above….

        Knee and thigh measurements look way better now. What hem measurement would have a tag 38 then?

          I don't know.  I have a target, but not sure if it is technically possible…..

            I measured the hem of my 633SII and it is ~ 8,5 (tag 38) which looks very good and clean, I must admit. So I am hoping for a similiar width.

              Yes, but the knee and thigh will be larger on the new cut, so my concern is whether we can create that much taper and retain the selvedge ID (which is the immovable feast)

                  So would taking the knee in a little help this?

                  Not as extreme as say the 555 but some kinda happy medium between the 634 and 555

                      I have had 3 pairs of 634's i have tapered all of them. The first pair i didn't change the knee measurements and it didn't work out and they are now gardening/painting jeans. The other 2 i bought the knee in to just under 9 and then down to a 8 inch hem.

                      size 33

                          No.  I'm trying to think of some great imagery for the patch, that will drive the lot number, not the other way around.

                            I tend to think of roomy thighed, tapered cuts as being perfect for squatters (that is people who do squats in the gym, not people with a dubious relationship to property ownership).

                            The current squat record is 575kg. So call them 575's, tie in heavy weights with heavy denim for the graphics and you're onto a winner.

                            EDIT: imagery could be a barbell with three plates on each end, bending in the middle under the strain, and a 5,7 and 5 on the rim of the plates.

                            Shit drawing but you get the idea:

                                I thought you might… also, I apologise for dirtying up your noble vocation with my poor attempts at graphic design 😉

                                      I like the sound of this cut too. I'm a fan of the 1955, and this sounds like at least a second cousin. Looking forward to seeing what transpires.
