Hi guys! Hello from Indonesia

I am considering to cop 555-21 but still doubt about the size

Currently, I own 666-21 size 30 and 634-21 size 30

I have checked the 555-21 measurement table and I think size 29 or 30 may suit my size.. waist n thigh, I think should be cool, but knee n below am still not sure.. btw I am 5'10" and 140 lbs

If you have experience or suggestion in picking 555, do let me know! Thank you!

Massive thanks to @Freeman for his patience whilst I deliberated cuts and waist size. We got there!

Fit check. Too tight or just right? (I know it is not too loose lol)

[goosehd]

@tnjyoung For me it would be a hair tight, but fit is subjective. One great thing about the 21oz is that it stretches fairly easy with wear.

If you’re comfortable with them now, then they will only get better for you.

[tnjyoung]

Thank you! I am comfortable with them. I feel a bit stiff, but no pain or chafing

[Supersonic]

@tnjyoung what tag size were these and what're your measurements mate?

[Danimal506]

They look good! And I agree, they will only get better if they fit good enough now.

Fit check. Super fit out of the bag. I wish they were tapered but this is still my favorite IH cut.

@CosmoSix5 Perfect fit!!! Congrats!!

[FlavourFade]

@CosmoSix5 looking great! Love the 555, because it's trim but not skinny and what gives it a rugged but still smart silhouette. Gotta wear my 555s 21 more soon

How does the top block of the 555's compares to the 888's? Similar? Roomier? The front rise and back rise seem kind of similar. I can see that the 555 is a lot slimmer at the knee.

@yannis Here is the page that describes all of the IH cuts and gives visual representations for you to compare:

Thank you

@yannis my experience with the 555 was kinda like that. Plenty of room everywhere for me except the span between the crotch and knee. 555 Top block was perfect, probably better than the 888 since the extra little bit of rise can make for some butt sag unless you wear them high - not a problem for comfort tho! I just can’t do the sharp taper from crotch to knee on the 555. My thighs aren’t that big, but too big proportionally for the other measurements. It was almost like the 555 was too slim in the thigh to pull them all the way up. Cool thing about the 888 though, is that if you fit for a snug waist, that should be the tightest measurement on that cut. Just my experience…

[yannis]

Thank you very much. Not sure why i am even considering it lol. There is no way they will fit in the thigh. I will stick with 634's and 888's.

Day One…

@Mickey-GT dang man! Those 888s are just warming up- that 555 is a good fit on you tho. Aren’t you usually in 777? Also dig the tonal arcs on these

Yep. I‘m selling all my 777 at the moment. I don’t like the low rise anymore. With getting older I prefer a higher rise like 888 & 555.

The 555 will be my new „office denim“. So not intended to fade them like the 888…

[Denimminer]

@Mickey-GT Man I feel like we are the same. I sold off those black 777s I had and still have the shinakya 777s but there is just something I can't pinpoint on the fit, but I did the same with my 25oz 555s but now I'm back to looking at more 555s. I feel like I always get them fitting decent, and then I wash them too many times and they change SMH
