Hey dudes,
Checking in one last time just to make sure that THIS IS the thread that will announce that the IH-555-XHSib's have arrived to shop and not some other link in a different thread.. If it is a different thread, will someone please point me in the right direction? thanks.

The best news of 2018

And, at last, they are ready to ship from Japan. But because of holidays etc, I don't expect to see them here for a couple of weeks…..
Great news! The wait begins…
-
If there are any more pics floating around of the 555-xhsib someone should post them to hold us over for a bit longer.. pretty please!?!?

You can also check out Matty123's 888-XHSib sample pair thread. Same denim, different cut.

Dude THANK YOU!! That was exactly the visual therapy I needed and those 888's look killer @Matty123
On another note, regarding quantity, does anyone know if the 555-XHS drop will be larger than the 555sii drop today? Just from what I saw on ironheart.uk's site it didn't seem like a very substantial quantity, especially for a major seasonal release?? Was this due to the fact that this was the last of the 18oz double indigo? or are these numbers standard for every release??
-
I think it depends all on the release. To me, it seemed small because of the lack of denim left. I could be wrong. On a release such as this one, I assume they'll send some to the stockist and sell the rest here. Just keep your eye on the thread. The Crew gives a heads up with the email notifications so you should be okay if you act somewhat quickly.
-
Numbers can vary due to a whole load of factors; the amount of denim that is available, Japanese release or western only, number of retailers are taking them etc, etc.
The XHS is hard to make and these utilise a complicated and expensive dyeing process. Also, given that both the 888 and 555 are being made from this denim and given that this is available in Japan I don’t expect there to be loads.
The crew may have numbers but you may also have to wait and see.

Cool thank, I love the endless stream of information available in the Forum! Is there also a thread that will show the quantity of the 555XHS once they get them counted?
