£278.00 Out of stock

IH-1955S-142
Waist: Please select waist

Our take on the iconic Levi's 1955 501 jean, the 1955 has a high rise and tapers from the knee to the cuff. This version is made from our 14oz indigo selvedge denim. Whilst this is a relaxed, traditional cut, it is extremely flattering on many body types.

Fabric Focus

Sanforized & One-Washed

- Sanforization is a post-weave mechanical process which removes most potential shrinkage from a fabric before garment construction
- To further reduce the risk of shrinkage, we wash the completed garment in an aggressive industrial washing machine. This process removes virtually all potential shrinkage.
- No further shrinkage is expected when washed according to our care guidelines

Stretch Details

- The waist will stretch out approximately 1" with wear. All other dimensions that are put under pressure will stretch proportionally to the waist


Care Guidelines

- We recommend washing this garment at 30°C with a low (or no) spin cycle. Hang dry, do not tumble dry
