IH-634SR - 21/23oz 5 Year Anniversary Straight Cut

[mikesantor]

G, need your opinion. my SRs only had 1 initial hot soak when they came out years ago. Since then i wore them for years but lost a whole lot of weight. they just hang in my closet wishing to get worn. Do you think if i did another hot soak and then a real hot tumble dry i could force some more shrinkage out of them? they are size 38 and right now i fluctuate between a 34 and 36 depending on craft beer season. is it worth a shot trying to make them smaller or not bother and just dont wear em?

Thanks buddy!

It's worth a go with the soak, but I think that a hot tumble dry even inside out is dangerous with that fabric….

Just drink more beer.

HOT wash 60° C or more…. no dryer, and "straighten" the fabric while wet...

Great score! The UHR is highly addictive;).

Figured it was time to get my SR pics on here. They are still crunchy and “full” - need to break the hell out of them to get them to fit better.  Relaxed in the body and snug in the waist as well lol

I wore these pretty consistently for over a year and washed them maybe 2 times

I have several of these archived in a couple of sizes and was pulling them out today in expectation of hemming.

Looks like about 2 inches of shrinkage from raw state for these, starting with a 37.5 inseam. Quite a lot.

Not a shit ton of skew really so wondering if there’s more shrinkage left.

Disclaimer:

However, I didn’t measure or compare the soaked pair when I got it so if it was longer or shorter from the factory, the above post doesn’t mean shit.

Devil’s in the details….

This is basically the UHR, right? I love that you have stocked pairs. Forward thinking at its best.
