      Dam Have to say I am a little underwhelmed. Weren't the last DWC collabs UHR?
      After all the talk of trying to get the comp back to basics and trying to bring back some excitement of those first contests I thought we might see a the new cut in a new denim. So as to be able to watch some new denim evolve. Not use up the last of a old one.

        And the contest jeans release will be…...

        …...get yourselves onto Google translate  😎

        Pre-order opens soon.

        The denim is actually the last of the 21/23oz raw, my personal favourite IH Denim and I wanted to give it an appropriate send off.

        Awesome! Is this in the new cut that you were talking about a month or so back? Slightly higher rise in the back?

        Maybe so. Maybe not

            @spitfiredealer , I think the UHR produces an ncresible fade results, better than most other denims in my opinion. I am bias as it is my favourite denim, but I think the new cut will give it a different evo potential and I'm excited to see it.

                I assume that patch is from your personal pair, Mega?

                        Oh man. It's not 25oz. Bummer. But I haven't worn any UHR. So maybe blessing in disguise

                          21/23 is the more interesting denim for long term wear and fade in my opinion, and it's more brutal and unforgiving…. I've spent 2 years in each  😉

                              That should be UHR 🙈

                              The last of the 21/23oz if I am not mistaken.

                              Oh ffs. I'm already geared up to buy the 888S and then you do this? I need to choose now  😢

                                  Have to say I'm pleased. But I was late to the UHR party and have a poorly fitted  pair of BB's in UHR. The denim is "new" to me still and I love it, so a properly fitted pair makes me happy. With the exception of the fact that I now "need" both the 21oz and the UHR 888…. 😕

                                    Ha. You remember that camo vest, and the Kanreki shirt, and the melton wool M65, and all the other shirts, and all those kids I supposedly "have" to feed?  😃

                                        The famous UHR is 21oz pre soak and 23oz post soak. It's also some of the most beautiful denim ever to be made into jeans. It has a slightly lighter indigo hue than most other IH denim, it's hairy, thick, crunchy and fades quick af.
