      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  😢

                        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.

                        I realise this post won't be popular and I am
                        No means trying to piss on your parade @mega

                        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?  😃

                            Will we get a size chart before the preorders begin?

                            Good question.
                            Also, what's the weight?

                              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.

                                      @Megatron1505 @Giles how accurate will the size chart be for pre-order? Since this is a brand new cut, and every model in different denims sews up slightly differently, will you do a sample pair of each size in the UHR to take measurements from?

                                        Probably very inaccurate.  Given the timings and the fact that we have not even done a full size run of the IH-888S (21oz version) yet, all we will be able to do is publish target sizing.  But like before, committing to buying a pair is not a commitment to buy a particular size, we will obviously want you to make your best sizing guess when ordering, but we will make a a parallel run of none DWC jeans and extra patches so we can juggle things around if sizing does turn out to be significantly different from predicted.
