IH-555S-21 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Jeans - Indigo PREVIOUSLY IH-555-01

Mine are on the way to me right now and I am trying to decide if I should do a pre-soak or not. I know they're sanforized but did any of you folks pre-soak?
Not necessary, when I washed mine after about a year, they wound up being very close to their original measurements

That's how mine fit and I sized up. I personally love that fit. Looks great to me.

So I wore the jeans today and they were great except for this.
The bulgy part of the pocket bag kept pressing onto the side of my hip and it was quite uncomfortable as it hurt (only on the right side). I'm not sure if there's any way to make it less "bulgy".
Anyone else with the same problem?

This question may not belong here, but I just saw this on the Self Edge newsletter and it made me curious…
"We've just received a large restock of the popular 301s jean from Iron Heart which now has a visible selvedge outseam. We worked with Iron Heart to tweak the way the outer leg is cut to preserve the selvedge edge of the fabric while maintaining the slim tapered fit the 301s is known for."
So, does that mean the 301 is now more like the 555-01??
-
555 is still a bit slimmer I believe

If you check the measurements there's very little difference between the two. The leg opening is more or less the same on the 555-01 and the 301s. The 301 has a lower rise though (I prefer the 555 for this reason).
