-
Thank you @steelworker Rain has always done a fantastic job with whatever I throw at her
-
@BlueBlood nice combs setting in on your 21’s. As for the UHRs, can’t resist a denim that’s been so highly talked of even if wearing them here will feel like being swallowed up in lava
Thanks, @RoxRocks86.
I already had FOMO over the UHRs and if you're going to wear them in Hawaii, I guess that I have no excuse to complain about sweaty legs here in Oregon.

@RoxRocks86
Thx Rox, they are already soft. Not like 21oz but close to.
A bit more than 50 wears, lost a few because I was sick and on sundays I wear what I want
Your pair looks awesome and the fit is bespoke, great job from the tailor

Loving them @RoxRocks86.
XHSib we’re my first pair of denim I put solid time into I made the mistake of not doing the initial soak so I remember the first couple of weeks being brutal .
And Y2 started in Oct cold and wet in the UK
And working on site is not good so wore them under waterproof bottoms to keep them clean .XHS feel great , that first soak is key .
Just the odd day on site wearing waterproof bottoms.still looking forward to seeing some good weather.Your pair look great you thinking of wearing them every day until the end ?

Merci !!!! @RoxRocks86 -

Hey James ,
so far I felt no need for washing my pair. But now after the first really warm week with lots of sweat I think
they need a first wash soon ::)
what would you recommend for the first wash ?
inside out a must ?
cold or warm ? -
It indeed was warm the last couple of days and I still managed to wear my XHSiB at every opportunity. I remember @Lowlander saying in one of his post that in Summer the XHS family is like a sweat pant and it indeed is very undeniably true. It feels heaven taking them off after a few minutes of wear.

Hi mate I prefer to wash in the bath tub hot water roughly around 40c put a couple of scoops of Samurai soap in there swirl it all around and submerge jeans i don’t turn them inside out don’t leave for 30mins with agitation.
fill back up with hot water and put back in for another 30mins
Drip dry on washing line , keep a eye on because I put them on damp and wear around the house set the creases back in , when they look set take them off and put back on the line to dry.Everyone has different ways washing machine etc this is the way I prefer mate

@Jcaz6996
does the Kaminati Samurai soap has a certain smell ? or odor ?
we have no bath tub ::) only a shower. -
Sorry to hear that Rueben–-sh*t happens as they say.
Hope you are doing well though and look forward to your return.
The possibility of a "Lord of Flies" situation looms large without your admin skills

Hey competitors,
it’s time again for the monthly submission! -
next month done, no wash no soak yet
-
Thx James,
the 18oz vintage is a fantastic denim, not the fastest fader but very beautiful.
Wait as long as possible before first wash. The last days were sweating , but it will be a bit colder next days.
Since I wear IH stuff , I hate summer

Wow great work. Impressively fast.
