      @Matty123 Boss fit, great cut. See what you mean about length. If you only lost an inch you should get some more with another hot soak/wash and honeycombs will take off .5". I had mine hemmed to 33.5 to allow for 2" shrink and while I haven't measured that's about where they are at.

      Still, they aren't too long if you cuff and it looks like they're stacking really nicely on you so you could leave them without any problems imho. It's all about how you want to wear them and it looks to me like you have options.

      Great denim ain't it?  😉

        warm soak, warm wash, no spin

        That’s a decent amount of shrinkage in the thigh. Wow.

        sorry screwed up thigh measure after wear it's 13.8

        Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
        Well, I have others.

          My pair had to have a wash tonight after a diesel accident at work. Put them on a 60 degree wash with 900 spin so bound to of got more shrink. Will have a measure when dry.

                                    I bought a pair of 35w 888-nt on eBay and I’m glad I did. These fit far better than the 36w and I probably should’ve gone with my gut when I first ordered them. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

                                      Sizing down in these worked for me. But I learnt that lesson from owning the 888S.

                                        I’m definitely getting a decent amount of stretch out of the UHR. I wanted to be sure that they wouldn’t shrink too much (these were my first run at unsanforized) but my conservative sizing was too conservative.

                                            I definitely could have sized down. Starting to realize that now. But I’m slowly gaining weight, so considering I’ll be wearing these for two years I’m glad I got the 32s haha!
