@madmonday Definitely the best pair of 555-02's I've seen!

Thanks to both of you.  I know the sizing might change a little bit since the last batch, but was just curious as to what the comparison was from the previous models.

@Giles:

The re-run is complete and ready to ship from Hachioji, should be here in a week/10 days…

Please remind me again about sizing compared to the 02 model?  I've seen a mix of posts in both threads on whether or not people went with the same size as the raw model or sized down.

@Giles:

The heavy flannels being released this year are this one, and then this one and then these

Not to derail the thread, but is there any difference in the Red Buffalo Check in the second link you posted compared to the IHSH-109?

Thanks for the quick response, Giles.

Soaked my pair yesterday in hot water for an hour, agitating every 10 minutes or so and by my rough measurements, lost approximately:

• Waist: 1.5 inches

• Front Rise: 0.25

• Rear Rise: 0.50

• Thigh: 0.50

• Knee: 0.20

• Hem: 0.25

• Inseam: 1.0

Does that look about right or should I give them one more initial soak?  (I was kinda hoping to lose more than an inch on the inseam.)

Just ordered! Excited for my first pair!

@Giles:

Massive restock in about 2 weeks….

Perfect, thank you!

Saw the restock, any chance for a 34 coming in?

Don't think I can make the 33 work with those thighs, being unsanforized and all.

@Giles:

Late August I am afraid.

Giles, is this still the plan for a re-stock?

Thanks!
