IH-888-UHR - Indigo UHR 21/23oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut

@manufc10:

It is!  The general consensus has been that this fabric will be too warm for me in Phx…I also absolutely do NOT need another pair of Indigo heavyweight denim...but damn it looks like an awesome fabric that will never be made again and it's in the 888 cut.

I wore my UHRS  in both a desert and tropical environment and I didn't think they were too bad. They get that same soft hand like 25 oz denim does after a couple months. Rough at first. Like a girl's bum after a few months. Soft as a kitten. I didn't think they were too bad in plus 90 degree heat. But I work in hot environments, like 130 plus. So my opinion could be askew.

Thanks for the input man.  I'm almost certain I am going to bend and will end up copping these anyways.

Best cut IH has ever done. Can't wait for more denim and fabric in the future.

Me being me, I placed my usual order. Plus UHR is my favorite denim.

I too can confirm the UHR is wearable during summer, I mean it's cotton after all and not plastic. It softens up after soaking/washing and it is definitely enjoybale in warmer months.

Alex wears 33

Boommmmm ordered

Do any of you that have experience with UHR know if the thighs will shrink at all?  The description says the waist and inseam will shrink, but nothing about the thighs.

[Alex]

All measurements will shrink in proportion the each other in the same direction:
All vertical measurements will shrink at the same ratio as the inseam shrinkage.
All horizontal measurements will shrink at the same ratio as the waist shrinkage

What tag size are you looking at?

[jbull477]

I'm looking at the 33.

[Alex]

OK, well an inch of 33.5 is around 3% so you are likely to get the thigh down to around 12.7'' assuming that you got the full inch at the waist.

This is not an exact science though I am afraid, so your results may be different…

[flavour79]

Super excited. I Just  hope I get a fit similar to my 888s based on my sizing

[jbull477]

Boom, ordered!

[celik]

@flavour79 What size did you order in these vs. what are your 888s?

[flavour79]

Am a tag36 in 888s. Hoping I can get the largest tag 36 in these. @celik what size did you order??

[celik]

@flavour79 Usual IH size for me is 31 but I ordered a size 32 in these to factor shrinkage. First UHR experience for me. Excited for these!

Hell ya!

I always go by the rule I'll get about .3" or so on the thighs with unsanforized/loomstate denim.  It's served me well so far.

Wow, well done on the dimensions for this! Awesome! I'd buy it immediately but I'm flying to China in a couple of days… hmm.... I'll have to google import duties to see if they can come meet me there 

Whoever it was that wrote it was the best Iron Heart cut ever ... you're right!!
