        Now don't take them off or wash them for 6 months straight, ok, take them off while sleeping. Should have some good fades 🙂

          @Jeansman:

          Just loving my 634UHRs! They've become so soft recently, I don't want to take them off. I've worn them for (office) work most weekdays since May 2015. I didn't soak them first, but they've had quite a few washing machine washes (30C or cold, inside out and 1400 rpm spin), been worn in the bath and scrubbed once, and brushed a few times.

          Wicked color @Jeansman !

          Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
          Well, I have others.

            Waiting for the F1 Canadian Grand Prix in my UHR 634s: worn for about 10 months most days and about 4 months on and off since then, raw for the first couple of months, quite a few washes since then including 1 not inside out as can be seen on the left thigh.

            Battled with my 25 oz, won the war!

              This will be my first time sharing any of my progress pics on denim. I hope you guys can appreciate my work, these have suffered 3 long months of straight wear with 1 soak about 3 weeks ago.

              I absolutely love them.

                3months?!?!? Appreciation would be an understatement. What the hell have you been doing these three months? Clearly you haven't been sleeping. Or sitting down. 😃

                      They need to go in for a crotch repair pretty soon, I'm thinking of sending them into Indigo Proof but I'm very weary of doing a machine wash. My washing machine is a cheap top loader with the huge agitator that seems to destroy clothes and I really don't want to find a huge faded in crease in these when I pull them out of the machine.

                          Would a bathtub be a decent replacement? Hahaha.

                          The one soak I did was I guess more of a handwash, I laid them out in the tub, submerged them in cold water with a bit of tide and shook them back and forth for a good while, did a quick rinse, and let them sit submerged for a bit. Then just rinsed the shit out of them for a good half hour.

                          They seem to insist on a machine wash though.

                          I've attached photos of the tear, it is through the warp and the weft is exposed, it is about 1.5 - 2" long.

                            Just put them in the washing machine, inside out, on the gentle cycle, with woolite dark or bronners soap, let them soak for a bit and then let them agitate for a few minutes or so. Pull them out before the spin cycle, give them a good rinse, and let them hang dry. This is pretty much my wash routine.

                              Here are a few fit pics, I think my next pair of IHs will be a size up. May also give these a hem when they are in with Indigo Proof.

                                Haven't worn these all summer… way too hot! Going to send them away for a hem before the fall rolls in.

                                    I finally soaked my 2nd pair of these, sized up a bit from my previous pair. Here they are post-soak/post-hem to 35".

                                      The blue sheen of the UHR is amazing.

                                          Question on sizing of the UHRs - I'm a 38 in 634S, should I stick with a 38, or move up a size?

                                            Depends what size your 634S actually were when new/are now…

                                            And take into account that the UHR will shrink and stretch as per the product description.
