IH-888-NT - 21/23oz indigo Selvedge DWC Jeans
-
it's too warm for AZ winters.
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.
-
So true ^^^^

I wore UHR denim in Phoenix last year during the holidays for a couple of weeks and didn't have an issue!
-
Ok I like this…now I'm being talked backed in to it. The enabling is getting stronger.

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.

Proper fit pics of the 888-NT.
-
So does the UHR ever soften up? Does it ever get 634s soft? I know
It's not breathable. -
Yes it definitely softens, my old UHR Busters are like sweat pants.
-
Great fit pic Mega. These are going to be killer.

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 -
@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?
-
@jvicente86 . I'll measure them tomorrow dude, it's late and I'm drinking beer
@goosehd , I've only had a couple of wears out of them, but I can tell you a couple of things. The UHR is my favourite denim ever, and this UHR is the same as my last pair which is awesome, I would imagine they will break in and wear the same. What stands out on this pair is the cut, which is just perfect.
-
I just purchased the IH-888-NT deposit in size 34. Looking forward to this UHR denim in this new cut.
Now I'm wondering if I shoud get the 888S when they're released in August +/-… ???

@jvicente86 , apologies for the late reply. After two full on machine washes the thigh measures 13.8", measured the Iron Heart way.
