What would be the difference between the 555's compared to the 777's? I do not want extreme slim fit!

555's have a higher rise and more fitted top-block than 777's. They still taper but not as aggressively. Imho, IH don't do "extreme" slim fits.

@neph93:

neph93, I thank you very much for the post.

From the shop where I would buy them, they say that the 555N would shrink after wash. Is this true?

I have the 555 in the 21oz, so I don't have much experience with this denim. IH's own page says the -N denim shrinks a little (not as much as raw) and stretches past shrunken measurements: http://www.ironheart.co.uk/bottoms/ih-555n.html

Perfect! I have gone through the sizing charts of the 555, 666 and 777! I would go for the 555N-14oz! Thanks for the post once again! May I ask you a request! Could you post a picture of your 555N?

Waist size 32 fits me perfectly fine. Should I size it down a bit? Should I get my 555N with waist 31 to allow for the 1 inch expansion? What do you guys think?

You'll likely find answers here. If not it's the right place to take the question now. Good luck.

I took the plunge and exchanged the 666N for the 555N in size W32 L36! I like the way this fits! It is a bit tight for now. Hope that it loosens up a bit after a while.

Hi!

Is there any chance to get two of the original anchor buttons for the pea coat mentioned above? In Germany? Thank you for your help in advance. I've bought that coat in New York … so it's difficult to replace them.

Kind regards

seroius question: which should i choose as the 3rd installment of IH Bottoms and why?
1- 634-uhr
2- 634s-blk
3- bo1-uhr

I like the B's in UHR. A higher rise & more room up top with the slimmer cut below. Of course if you're as lanky as some of the feckers here that might not matter. I'm lusting after the BB in 18oz myself. Along with the 101 in 18 and enough others to convince me I've got a problem…and it's a bad one. With apologies to the late Gil Scott-Heron.

Dion

Go for either 634-UHR or the BB-UHR since you already know the 21oz (634-BLK only being its black counterpart). The UHR is a hell of a fabric: full of character, tough at first but then comfy to the max.

mikebarhoot

thx @steelworker n @den213. im thinkin one of the the UHRs as it should be much different than what i already have.
now to compare masurements…

and by no means....lanky. in GoT terms.... Hodor

mikebarhoot

yep. goin w option 3. deciding points… UHR and navy stitching on back pocket. got one mor large bill to pay off (ok, not that large but still) then coppin em. ETA- June

G, put me aside a 40. and thnk 34 length.?. plz

Giles

We don't put stuff aside I am afraid. Got bitten too many times in the past…...

mikebarhoot

understood & agree.

Dion

You will love the denim and the cut. I went with the same size as my 666-XHS and they're much more comfy (even after a shipload of shrinkage!).

Giles
