      Guys , do you think that I should hem these at least 2" more than my desired length due to the length shrinkage after hot soak?

        I'll try and get that done today for you, I'm wearing them cuffed right now but lacking a photographer.

        Right on!

          They shrink a little more each time for the first few soaks/ washes. Hemming them a bit longer than normal is a solid plan, even if they end up a little longer than normal you can carry a little extra stacking.

              October is approaching fast and I am already thinking about hems and length.

              What is acceptable #of folds for denim? One fold ? 2?3? Fold to shorten the length. Just trying to sort maximum # of folds so I don't look awkward .

              Typically I like small one fold just to show selvedge on side .

              This is all personal preference imo.  I've rocked big fat single cuffs of 8 inches when I'm feeling lazy and want the bottom edge above my ankles when I'm wearing sandals.  My favorite is probably a couple inch double.  I've also done skinny triples just to change things up.  They give jean a different feel too.  The triple give a fatter cuff and keeps the jean legs more "stove pipe" imo, where the single and double cuffs the fabric moves how it wants to.

                ANY DAY NOW… right?  😃

                Excited
                @Megatron1505 you
                Mentioned leaving these hemmed a little longer. I’m your opinion how much ? .5 inch? Full inch? On top of the 2” shrinkage account I mean?

                Maybe so. Maybe not

                  I'd recommend hemming them 1.5 to 2" longer than usual length and putting a small cuff on them, or living with stacks. Each to their own though.

                    Ok just so I understand. Let’s say I want to end up with a 30” inseam. Because of shrinkage I Would have them hemmed at IHUK to 32” to account for the shrink. Your advising IYO to add an 1.5-2” to
                    That? Thanks man

                      I didn't think the UHR shrank all that much? I was planning on getting them hemmed 2" longer than my desired length.

                        My recommendation was just for how I wear them, a little extra length for a ciff or stacks.

                                That’s awesome. To avoid bothering you guys I’m wondering how you prefer questions about sizes and measuring be sent to you. Thanks

                                  Until we have them here, measure them and publish sizing we will ignore any sizing questions  🙂 🙂

                                  Once we have published the sizing chart, we will notify all those of you who have pre-ordered, that the sizing chart is published, the balance payment page is live and ask you to make your balance payment.

                                  When you make the balance payment, you can say stuff like "largest tag 36 please", "extra room in the crotch for my very large gonads" etc etc.

                                  We will process all orders in the order in which we receive them, so the earlier you place your order, the more scope we have to meet your specific requests….

                                  OK @Madame Buttonfly ?

                                          @Giles since these were pre-order, do you accept returns, if unaltered, unwashed, etc., if I'm unhappy with fit/cut? Just asking…

                                          Very exciting news!!! thnx mpp
