IH-555N - 17oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Jeans - Natural Indigo
-
@superfuzz Pretty much been living in mine since I got them back in May. Much more comfortable for the hot summer months. Probably another month or so until I switch back to 21oz denim. I'll try and post some evo pictures at that time.

Giles this might be a silly question but for a newbie like myself was curious to know why the rivets on the 555N not have the iron works engraving as compared to the 555-02.
Has already.

I'd stick with them for another couple of weeks, they might settle down into a better shape on you with a bit more wear.
That's sound advice. Wear them hard a few weeks. Let them become friends with you. They'll soften and sit on you totally differently.
I did soak them once and I find them now a lot more fitting on me than they were before. I like the way the denim has become - truly mine! Awesome stuff!
-
And by the way, one more question. Why is the 555N Endangered? Would this mean that this model did not sell as expected? What is the rationale behind some products labelled Endangered while others are still in Extant?

Sorry bad quality….
Spend some holiday in thailand, the 555N is wearable for me ( not too hot)

About 1 year but probably 8 months of real wear and 4 handwashes
They look amazing! When did you give them their first soak/handwash? I am breaking in my first pair of IH (the 555n). I have had them for about 18 months but only worn them evenings and weekends so in reality probably equates to 6 - 7 months of continual wear. Starting to get some bleed in the expected places and would like to give them a soak but am worried once I do this that the fades will stop developing. Also, could do with getting them hemmed but want to wait until after 1st soak in case of any shrinkage in the leg length. Any advice to a newbie would be much appreciated.

Cheers. Gave them a soak in the bath tonight with some Woolite. Surprised how little indigo loss there was in the water, so hopefully all good for more fade evo [emoji3]. Looks like they have shrunk a fair bit in the waist and thigh so gonna have a painful few weeks stretching them back out
