if the UHR will do so too I‘am fine
no more expensive tryouts, hate that ! -
They can stretch one Inches more.. with some power

my IHxB01UHR tag 40 had a 41” waist when received. IIRC these were my 2nd pr of IHs (maybe 3rd) which would date them circa 2014 or 2016. i didn't wash or soak them as recommended until they REAKED and have since washed them (hot soak with Woolite dark in tub) and spray rinse while hanging then hang dry numerous times. just measured them for actual and stretch has been minimal. see pic of measurement. the UHR IMHO is the most unforgiving from a stretch perspective and i would recommend anyone order actual size vs sizing down to get a right fit.
fun fact: these still ‘pop’ when i walk.
. and are way too big for me now after losing 90 ish lbs.

i gotta be that guy and ask:
I was trying on a old pair of 634's in a 35 and i felt the legs were much tighter/slimmer than my 888 25oz 36's. As in quite a bit noticeable, whereas i would almost describe my 888's as baggy below the knees, the 634's felt more trimmed. Anyone else have this experience?
My problem is I enjoy the roominess of the 888 upper block but really which the legs and below the knee were trimmer. I think wearing the bibs ruined me. And now I wanna grab a UHR pair before the go OOS. The 634's were a bit more restrictive in the thighs but the overall fit "fit" me better (at least in my head in the mirror.)
any advice other than buying all the UHR pairs

@kasi apologies if you’d already stated that you had old uhr.
-
@mikebarhoot dig that boro repair!
-
I canceled my order .
Too afraid to end up with a too tight waist….
Maybe one of the other cuts will work better.... -
I think I will press go on these today
-
I'm waiting for the 666 cut.
-
Ordered!
-
@Dmart
yes, but I discussed it a lot with the guys at GosVegas and maybe it will not work. so I decided to cancel. -
Mine arrived just now! F'n gnarly as all hell, as expected — pretty sure I injured myself buttoning the fly. In other words, excellent.
Feels like 33 was pretty perfect for me. They'll be tight after shrinking, but seeing that they should stretch back to current state in the waist, should be great. Gonna soak em tomorrow.
-
@popvulture Just remember, you need the agitation too to get the shrinkage. Soaking alone won't accomplish what you need to do…
-
I'll agitate em — just doing it in the tub, though. As I've said ad nauseam, my "fancy" Maytag washer is a piece of trash that loves to fuck up jeans, so I'm just not doing that. I'll probably give em two hot soaks and see what kind of results I get. I've done this with all other pairs of jeans I have, plenty of em unsanforized, and it's always been fine. No fade shifts as far as I've been able to tell.
FWIW after the initial hot soak(s), my jeans never see hot water again. I wash em by hand in the tub in cold water, works great for me.
-
That's what I ended up doing. I soaked twice (two different days), hot water (almost too hot bare handed), and hand agitated…and all inside out.
Hand wash for the first year and now just throw them in the washing machine (inside out) and cold water.
Good luck...they are worth it!
