No, not of the UHR material.  21oz flagship denim OD and 21oz super black denim.

If my intuition suggests tag size 32, then size 31 is probably correct, right? 

I’d be shooting for 32”ish waist post-shrink, post-stretch; looking at the measurements, tag size 31 which starts at 31.5” should fit the bill. I’d prefer the front rise of a size 32 pair, though; on the other hand, the slimmer leg from thigh-down on a size 31 pair is also very welcome. It would seem the raw thigh measurement of 12.5” on a size 31 pair would translate to 12+” post-wash, which would be ok.

What’s the ETA on the black versions? Was it so that they were meant to follow the sizing convention of the UHR model, give or take?

IWHWIH and we'll tell you when we have measured them….

The jeans may fade but our love will never. Lol. Wife is in her 23oz Railcars and me in my 888-NT

4 month update on my 888-NT, size 34. Near daily wear, with a couple of days switching to other pairs. 6 washes and a dryer cycles so far. This is the fastest fading denim I've owned. The deeper front pockets and all the other fine points are greatly appreciated. Mostly I wear them uncuffed, occasionally double cuffed.

The GF continually reminds me that these are her least favorite of all of my jeans. I don't think they look that bad. I don't think I like this cut as much as the 634 (or especially 633; I don't own a pair in any flavor). The extra rise is welcome. The hips are wide, and there's a lot of extra material in the front and rear junk area. These ride down on my hips rather than stay up at my waist, unless I cinch a belt, otherwise leads to a rather strong showing of diaper butt. Maybe I could have sized down 1 in the NT for a trimmer fit, however then I'd be concerned about them being a little too tight and restrict basic movements. I still haven't achieved my previous thigh and arse mass which would help fill these out more.    These 34's are very comfy.

You old crossposting dog you!

I do it for the same reason I do most things around here, because I know it irritates the Belgian

I feel like this might upset some people here.

5 months, 3 washes, and shamelessly wearing Birkenstocks:
