    I think I'm in the same boat as thunder here… I had purchased a pair of Levi's 1947 501XX jeans prior to deciding on the IH-UHRs... now that Cone Mills has shut down I think it'd be cool to enter the most iconic denim in existence into the contest... I'll post my first month of aggregate wear on Feb 1st. That'll be the date I officially switch to those as my contest entry pair.

    It'll be interesting to see how they stack up against the Japanese denim entries.

    Edit: I think I'll enter two pairs. I just can't get over how comfortable these UHRs are... they're not exponentially warmer than the Levi's either, and those are ~14oz.

      @goosehd:

      IH-888-NT’s 70 days.  Starting to consider first wash.  Trying to holdout a bit longer.

      I’m right there with you! I want to make it to 90 days but I also want to see how much indigo I’ve shed.

        IHxVS777 at 84 wear days. Still look super black from a distance, but lots of grey starting to come through.

        With IHTB-01.



        And IH 526J-DD at 12 wear days. Kinda hard to account for a total day as I wear it every day but usually only for short periods.

        @mikebarhoot @twin looking great gents!

                                I don’t think he will have any indigo left in 2 more months. Hah.

                                  @spitfiredealer - Hah!  If you were to retire those now and enter a fresh pair, you'd win first and second prizes.  😎

                                    Wow, no where near that but progressing slowly.

                                    A bit over a month since the last posting of images.  My, o, my time flies. A few more soaks.  More desk work.  Nothing big.

                                        Figured I would take some pictures before I wash my 888-NT. I’m about 70 days in on these and they’re coming along nicely. Super comfortable and the fit is A+
