IH-1955S

[Giles]

Well, the 634S is based loosely on a '66 cut, but there all sorts of subtle changes; size and placement of pockets etc.  Haraki may take a concept or design and modify it or Harakify it, but he does not get turned on by being given an existing pair of jeans and being asked to copy it.  That does not get his creative juices going - which is good.  having said that, I have had a lot of requests for a 55 cut in the 21oz selvedge and that compounded by a specific request from a retailer made me bite the bullet.

yap, modified , but not a 66 cut per say..anyways - u repro fans should consider yourself lucky and buy 2 pairs to make Haraki & Giles happy

really looking forward to this one and I'm sure, as with all IH products, the final outcome will be topnotch

Whatever we think about how or why this one came into being.  It is a really stunning jean…...........

"Oooo" was what came out of my mouth involentarily!

Very nice!.. Excellent cut for taller gents or smaller people who just want a baggy/ full cut!..

[daveo]

I'm excited for this one (except the arcs…)!

[Giles]

The arcs are those of my retailer.  I will do normal arcs on the ones I carry…............

[simonc]

sorry what's an arc (beside big biblical boat)

[Giles]

the rear pocket stitching - arc as in arcuate…..........

Good to hear! I'm very interested in these…..

[daveo]

Good to hear that, Giles.  I figured you'd sell the same arcs.

@Giles:

…modify it or "Harakify it"...

Favorite new expression…

I know I'm of the minority but I like the A.  Can't wait for more press on these to roll out.

@Beatle:

I am completely with Haraki on this one…

@Beatle:

nope, IH has never been a repro in terms of cut. Basically - the only thing that would qualify them for the title is manufacturing standards

It is a well known fact 55's are the greatest cut ever, but hey, the future shall decide 55's cut or beatle busters, but I'm pretty sure these will be the biggest selling jeans for IH

They're going to have a long way to go before they'll catch up to the 634.  A very long way.

[Max Power]

Great fit on these, Giles. One of your best so far. (I beg to differ on the"fact" that the "55 is the best cut ever", though :P)
The Arcs are nice, too. Is a (maybe non-red) tab impossible due to possible law suits? seems to be no big issue lately.
