I'll be blunt - I'm not much of a slub person. But got notice that a local stockist was getting this in, and had to go check it out in person (local IH stockists are new to me too.)
I walked out with a pair. Absolutely stoked on them. They're quite airy and light compared to the 21oz, which is to be expected. Otherwise, they're fitting well enough I suspect they'll be getting the bulk of my attention in terms of wear time.
Those wash photos make me even more glad I picked up a pair.
@Alex I will continue checking back then, thank you.
Glad to hear there is a pending restock of the 21oz. The local stockist mentioned some 14oz being released, but the 21oz is what I really prefer.
So we're looking at a potential restock of 1955 in 21oz indigo this month?
I don't have any jeans that currently fit me well. Would supplying a measurement of my thigh suffice? I could provide a measurement of the thigh of my work pants, I suppose.
I'm leaning towards picking up a pair of these based on the straight leg vs the 888s. I don't like the feeling of my calves being constantly hugged. I also miss my IH 21oz denim dearly and would like to put some back in the rotation.
Seems like these are actually going to work for me. I pulled some dims on my main work pants this AM and naturally forgot to measure front and back rise. But the thigh measurements seem appropriate for me. Debating between size 33 and 34, but my decision will much more clear once I've pulled rise dimensions on my current pants. Very eager to have the firm, but respectful hug of IH 21oz denim back in my daily wear rotation.
For peace of mind - are any USA IH stockists getting this run?
Any updates? Approaching the two month mark from the latest update.

@Alex ahh I'd missed that comparison chart. Will the 1955s be added to that chart? Curious how the seat / thigh area compare between them and the 888s.
My local IH stockist doesn't carry 888s or 1955s, but I may have to swing by soon enough to discuss.
Coming back to IH after some time away. I miss my IH 777 21oz dearly, but they don't fit anymore after taking up weight lifting a couple years ago....
Is the 1955S cut the most roomy jeans through the thigh (relative to the waist measurement) that IH offers?
Picked this up locally. Favorite IH flannel in awhile. First IH workshirt for me too, and I definitely prefer the cut / fit to the Western.
Perfect colorway for the Bills v. Chiefs game tomorrow too. I'll try not to spill beer on it. Cheers to the IH team for this gem!
Ahh, I appreciate it. I'm always too eager on this stuff.
My sizing has also been shifting around, so just want to ensure I get something I can wear.
Is there a size chart available for this garment yet?
I'm going to have to part with some other flannels and start saving for this. Gorgeous pattern.
