      ^ and if you size down you can pretend you were in Motley Crüe ca. 1986 which is fun too (allegedly [emoji849])

      What was 1986 like?

              If sized correctly the 555 is amazing with a great taper and enough room in the top block so the gentleman balloons can breathe.

              It's the large waist-to-thigh/knee ratio that is a bit odd to me.  For me they fit quite large in the waist but the thighs and knees I can barely squeeze in to.  I will say that the very small knee measurements on this cut make for fantastic honeycombs.  I don't entirely dislike the cut it's just probably the oddest cut for my body type.

                The 555 is actually pretty good for me with the exception of the knee. That’s what takes them from a snug fit to a tight fit if I’m not careful with sizing (I have three pairs and one of them is 80’s rocker, one is good and one is marginal but doable).

                  If the 666 cut were made to fit Giles,then the 555 were made to fit me. Everything about it is perfect on me. Especially in light of the fact that I either wear  boots or Converse on my feet.

                    When I can get the thighs and rise right I love the 777 as well.  555 is probably my least favorite IH cut…I just don't get it lol.

                    You just ain’t a Snake bro!! Lol

                    Actually I think I've figured out what it is with this cut….I would be a tag size 35 in them, that would be my perfect size...but for whatever reason that tag size is elusive..not just with IH but with a lot of brands.  There are actually one or two fabrics made in a tag size 35 for the 777 cut I believe....but other than that I need either a large 34 or small 36.

                    so I am a snake...just a tag size 35 snake  😉

                        Here's another random parenting question for you. Lastnite I was giving my son a bath and we were talking about his class at daycare. The subject of the boy who hit him a few weeks back came up. My boy was telling me how his classmate wouldn't play well with others and would frequently get time outs from the teacher. This child would do stuff like knock over magna tiles that others would build, or take toys that kids are playing with, etc. I gave me son 3 options to deal with this situation. One, he could make the choice to not play with him anymore, or two, he could use his powerful voice and tell him to stop whenever this child does something disruptive or three, he could tell his teacher.

                        Anyway, after I went over these options with him my son he casually says, "I wish I had a gun so I could hurt him." Needless to say, I was speechless because I was bothered by his comment. I told him that it is not ok to talk like that or to threaten violence against someone with a gun (or anything for that matter). On the one hand, he's only 5 and I think he was expressing himself the only way he knows how. On the other hand, did he learn this language from the types of cartoons/movies that I let him watch? Most of the stuff I let him watch is harmless enough but then i'll let him watch grown up movies like Marvel/DC stuff or Transformers films, both of which have adult content like language and violence.

                        How would you guys deal with this and what would you say? His comment was upsetting for me, especially given the current gun climate. I don't know whether or not to tell my ex-wife either.

                          I spilt a decent amount of coffee on my kanreki shirt and a pair of jeans. This is a multiple part question. Will coffee stain the shirt? Is there a time in which I need to get the coffee out? Because I won’t be able to wash it for at least an hour. And I spilled it on my 777’s. Any information would be helpful thanks

                          Maybe so. Maybe not

                            Before you do anything, blot out as much as you can with Kitchen paper, this gets it out instead of spreading it around with water and a sponge which is what a lot of people reach for.

                              Thanks. I did my best with a cotton knit hat that I had in my car at the time. Well

                                Shout is the best thing,I’ve found for coffee stains. It doesn’t fade or harm the material. You will still have to wash the stained items,but you’ll be good as new when done. From another clumsy bastard.

                                  I recommend using cold water for any rinses or washes. Warm water will set the stain. Good luck!

                                      Idk man but this tour jacket I’m wearing is amazing. So soft and heavy.

                                        It’s definitely a contender. I have about 6 months until Jacket season starts again, so planning my attack.

                                          Not on your list but i'd say the 526Lod you wore on the world tour.
