IHXB01xUHR - Ultra Heavy Raw Beatle Busters

[Dion]

Hope it'll work out for you and you can love 'em! I too was unsure about the Busters' fit first (roomy top-block, fitted thigh, flare from the knee down and the rather wide hem) but I got used to them and after some wear they are one my favs as they resemble a classic pair of jeans perfectly.

Oh I agree. I have the BB-sbg and love the fit. That's why I'm pushing it a little with these, to get AS close AS possible. They're drying now, so update later.

thanks Neph!  these, while on the roomy side, are comfortable. theyve stretched since og soak but im not gonna intentionally shrink em.  i do love the UHR tho!  keepers for sure!

now i need to focus on upper body to get down to a size that is condusive for a ih shirt.

Got a result with the hot tub soak + 60C wash. Haven't taken measurements yet but I've lost a bit in the leg (so much so that when creases form and I lose a bit more I won't need to cuff) and the waist, top block and thigh have tightened noticeably. Measurements and pics for the sake of documentation to follow shortly.

It remains to be seen how three washes and two soaks will affect the way they wear in, but I honestly don't care now they fit that much better

Glad it worked out!

[neph93]

I'm pleased too. Thanks for the tip @den213

Considering picking a pair of these up as I love the UHR and I'd like something to contrast my 634s. These are my 634UHRs in 31, I think they are bit tight on me but some days I like a slim fit.

How much should I size up to achieve a fit like nephs? I know I will definitely have to hem the shorter as the BBs look a little odd when they aren't the perfect length.

[neph93]

They do look a bit snug for 634's. Look good though! Busters have a slimmer thigh than 634's so sizing up one should see you right.

Thanks neph, it's either these or another pair of 634 in UHR, haven't decided yet. I do like the idea of the Beattle Busters and a IHSH129 though.

Been wearing mine the last few days and they've developed a loud "pop"ing sound when i walk…  Quite unnerving as much as i walk.

[mikebarhoot]

Gonna hot soak em again see if it helps as they've  stretched quite a bit.

Or will the pop work itself out…

[Giles]

The pop'll work itself out as the denim softens….

[Dion]

Wear and some hot soaks will definitely help (esp. around the crotch area).

[mikebarhoot]

2nd hot soak. Still CRISPY!

The UHR denim gets incredibly stiff when wet. I was caught in the Rain an Tuesday and it was a pain to walk in the wet UHR for the rest of the way.
