If you can't tell by my name change; I have decided on the 888 UHRs for the DWC.

@twin, awesome. looking forward to seeing someone elses evolution of the ihvs777s21’s.
Gav, will there be a published list of participants and their denim selection?

Just sent in the registration payment for DWC 2017-2019. My jeans will be the 888NT.

@summ3rhays you're post soak fit pics from a few pages back look spot on.
@Vagrant I'm surprised you can move your legs in those. Should make for some intense fades with a little love.

@mikebarhoot , sorry dude but the only info I have compiled on contestants is real names and email addresses. People tend to get a bit "tin foil hat" if you publish that stuff online, and I only use it verify that people are indeed paid up participants.

@BloodnThunder - I sized them up to 29 as they didn't come in 28, so in comparison to my Pure Blue Japan XX-014 in 28, they already feel like sweatpants after three wears.
The XX-014s are an amazing cut and denim, but man my thighs ached climbing stairs.

Got some light blues poking through already!
These are likely from the same OG batch as my BB’s judging by the colour. The indigo absolutely flies out of them. I recommend working in them if you can, a days heavy lifting, building, or the like sets combs, whiskers and will start the thighs fading like in no other denim.
It’ll be interesting to see what the 888 batch does as first reports seem agreed that it turned out slightly darker.

Is there plans for a pic only thread?

Hey bud. So these jeans were made from different batches of denim?

I remember now what happened. The original mill that wove this for us said that they were going to have to stop as the UHR was buggering up their loom too much. Haraki found another mill that agreed to make it, so this current batch of UHR used a different mill (so obviously a different loom).
To all intents and purposes, the warp and the weft were same as we have always used. But there will always bee subtly difference in the cotton and the indigo. This ain't an exact science…
