DWCxUHR - Denim World Championship Ultra Heavy Raws…

@Megatron1505. They shrunk over 2inches in the waist??
10:30 pm my reaction was: “Oh boy… They are measuring in at 33″ in the waist! Not dry yet!”
11:30 pm: I put them on damp and they stretched right out to just under 34″. Forgot to keep in mind that these are so thick that you have to account for the side fabric when you try to measure flat. -
Mine measured 35" inside the material, today they feel MUCH better. These are going to be perfect and I advise anyone who goes through the painful squeeze of a first fit that it will be fine.

@superfuzz and @khaki8 no need to apologise - makes me smile reading these comments, I realise that comfort in that area is of utmost importance and love the way you boys politely compare notes about your "boys"!

Day one. I think I'm going to try to hot soak them to get more of the length to shrink. They shrunk 1.5" after following the soak and wash instructions.
Pretty happy with the fit though. I may need to get them hemmed a bit more though. I want a cuff, but t not doubled.

Yeah, Day one and I am getting a lot of movement in these. No chaffing and I can lift my legs easily. The buttons are a breeze, so it looks like the coins worked out perfectly. They stretched out to over 34 now (tag size 34), so this denim likes to move! My inseam shrank 1.5″ and the alterations left me with a perfect cuff and stack. Thank’s Matt! I probably could have done a 33 if I was going for the super slim, squished in your jeans look, but I never got into that style (I’m a product of 90’s America). These are a perfect relaxed fit that I can work in now so I am curious if there is more stretch to come?

Good fit

Got my jeans on wednesday evening. I spend the rest of it giving it time to soak and then in the wash. I hung them up over night. I was very nervous in the morning because all the forum posts I had been reading about how hard they were to get on. It took me about 10 mins which was not as bad as I was expecting. Here's my first fit pics. I think I'm going to really like them.

Great fit enjoy
-
Yeah look spot on
-
Great fit, not to jinx anything but I have yet to see a fit in these that I haven't thought was just about spot on.
-
Yeah, some super fit pics here - thanks all. @Winchy did an amazing job - the UHR denim is apparently the most difficult to hem and he got through them all pretty much single-handed, with a little help from @Axel who also played a blinder with picking, packing, shipping and stacking whilst Matt was chained to Unity. It's really great a few short days later to see the fruits of our labours!

I think that it's safe to say that your labours are very much appreciated @Madame Buttonfly @Giles @Winchy @Axel . Many thanks

Received my DWCxUHR on friday, gave them a soak for 2 hours and then a 30°C wash without detergent as the paper recommended.
After washing my 36 was nearly 34, but after being damp it fits perfectly. Inseam shrunks nearly 2inches and this is also perfect for me.
Turning a wet 21/23oz outside in and later inside out is a tricky thing
Many thanks @Madame Buttonfly for sending me a small sized one and also @Giles and for signing it.
Also thanks @Winchy and @Axel for cutting, hemming, packing and shipping.
