      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.

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

            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.

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

              Or will the pop work itself out…

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

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

                    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.

                          It gets slightly better after several washes :D.

                                Got my pair of UHR Busters a couple weeks ago. My first pair of heavy weight raw denim! Here is a quick report for posterity.

                                These are on the large side for me, so I did a 3 hour cold soak, then later did a 30 minute hot soak and a hot machine wash to try to get them to shrink as much as possible. Sorry, no measurements were taken, but I'd guess I got about 1-1.5 inches in the waste, 2 inches on the inseam and some pretty gnarly leg twist.

                                Beware of top loading washers! I was careful to pull them out before the spin started and turn the pants inside out, but it still caused some annoying streaking on the right leg. Nothing too bad, but it definitely motivates me to fade em that much harder so the streaks blend away.

                                Here are a couple pics:

                                Overall, I am really hyped on these jeans! The denim is awesome (obviously) and the lined back pockets is an awesome touch. There is an extra inch or so in the waist, and I'd probably prefer a slightly smaller leg opening, but they fit great with a belt and the cut seems like exactly what I want with denim this heavy. I probably would've been best served by the elusive 35 tag size, but this 36 will do nicely.

                                Getting the fly buttoned the first couple times is no joke! Break in is ongoing, but they've been pretty comfortable to wear after the first couple days. I'm looking forward to wearing these as hard as possible and seeing some great evo!

                                  Fit looks good. These get better and better with wear and soften up a lot.

                                      Thanks!

                                      Just got back from a couple miles long walk in the woods while wearing the busters. Late August is not the ideal time to be wearing these, but it seems like the break-in process is coming along. A lot more comfortable than the first time I hiked in them.

                                            They look good Mike! IH sorcery makes them soft and comfortable with some wear on them.
