@Yossarian:

Couldn't help myself. Managed to pre order just in time! First unsanforized denim, I'm expecting my legs to die a little in the first few weeks.

Boom! Great work.

Thanks Neph.

So, I pre ordered a size 32 which is TTS for me. My only reference point is a pair of 634s in size 32 that I tried on a few months back. Great fit but with a pretty tight waist and fairly snug thighs (too much for my liking actually). Am I correct in thinking that a 32 will probably work for me here because they should hit 31.5 POST shrink and additionally sit higher, above my hip bone?

I'm 5'10, 170 lbs with wide hips and thighs and a bit of dat booty.

Thanks.

Thanks Mega. Can't wait. Any more fit pics of these beasts on the way?

[Megatron1505]

I will get some up in the next couple of days dude. I haven't been wearing them as I was planning on doing a "ride along" for the contest in them, so I have been concentrating of PIHANN7-21, which are coming along beautifully at the moment.

I pre-ordered some 35s. I have to size for my thighs and my best fitting pair is my Momotaro 0605-18 that come in around 13.6 after wear. I'm hoping that I can get close to that with the 35s post-soak (this is my first run at some un-sanforized).

What is the UHR like with multiple washes? Does it keep shrinking?

[Graeme]

I've got a pair of the 1955-UHR, and their size seems to be stable. The waist shrinks a little when washed, but stretches out. Length seems constant, and that's what I always watch out for.

[Megatron1505]

^ Agreed

[spitfiredealer]

Thanks guys.

[spitfiredealer]

A thought that has been going round my head.

Because of the extra rise does that mean I will need less room in the thigh than I usually like? For example if I want 13" for a comfy fit in 634 can I get away with say 12.6 or so in this cut?

[Giles]

Buy a pair and tell us…...

[Matty123]

@Megatron1505  how these working out for ya?

[Megatron1505]

The fit is incredible, but alas they are still in storage awaiting colder weather.

[Matty123]

my bad. i must have missed that bit of info.

[Megatron1505]

Not a worry dude, I just have a couple of jeans that I'm really enjoying at the moment before I wear these in earnest

[spitfiredealer]

G are these going to be adjusted so they don't come out like the first run of the 21oz? With the small thigh.

[Giles]

Too late…..

[spitfiredealer]

Will need to size up then
