      Yeah that's what initially attracted me to this denim was the blue hue, looks lovely.  But sounds like the general consensus is that it's too warm for AZ winters.  Oh well…I love m y 18oz vintage and it has a great hue to the blue as well so I can live with.those

        The UHR won't be made again and this is the last chance to jump on the bandwagon. I wouldn't wanna miss this incredible denim.

          No, it isn't.  You're just in the wrong part of Arizona.  Two hours up 17 and you're in perfect weather.

            Ah, this is true….I should specify.  Too warm for Phoenix winters.  I'm too used to talking to people from other parts of the country who assume that the whole state is a massive, arid desert.

              I'm still tempted to get these either way.  Like @Dion said, this stuff won't be made again.

                I understand.  I spent a lot of time explaining to people that it snows in Flagstaff.  And that it's in the middle of an honest to god actual forest.  In Arizona.

                    I wore UHR denim in Phoenix last year during the holidays for a couple of weeks and didn't have an issue!

                        After yesterday's mishap I had to wash the NT samples again, and man did it get all the shrink out. Learning the lesson from my last UHR jeans I put them on wet, well damp, to stretch them out a bit in waist, but it was still a wrestling match to get them on.

                        I found last time with UHR Denim, if you have a really tough struggle to get them on after washing then your fit should be both comfortable and solid when you've worn them a few times.

                              So does the UHR ever soften up? Does it ever get 634s soft? I know
                              It's not breathable.

                              Maybe so. Maybe not

                                Yes it definitely softens, my old UHR Busters are like sweat pants.

                                  It does a little but it never comes even near the softness of the 21 oz. It stays crispy.

                                      Cheers @summ3rhays , they came out exactly as we wanted.

                                      @Dion , my last UHR's are super soft after a couple of years….took a while though.

                                        I don't know why I keep asking questions. I'm ordering them regardless. They could feel
                                        Like 60 grit for the duration and I'd still sign on. I'm a big fan of octopus

                                        Maybe so. Maybe not

                                            @Megatron1505 Are you seeing similarities between this pair of UHR jeans and your last pair.  Breaking in the same, wear the same, etc.  Does anything stand out on this pair?
