    Dumb me didn’t recognize the stacking option. Thanks for the reminder, G. Order placed.

      All denim should be unsanforized, unrinsed and raw like how some of my first dates used to be before I got married.

          @Giles I wonder if you guys could make a video of how the UHR denims are made. It's such a cool story. It makes me even more excited about my pair.

          Btw, kudos to your team… I live in California and it seems it's scheduled to deliver on Monday.

                  …I'm jumping on board the 'RAW' train for at least one pair (555 or 666, waiting on waist measurements from the stubborn crew). The back story on the UHR is fascinating and really incredible and I just have to know what this raw denim is all about. 🙂

                  ...truly fascinating to me. 😎

                    Holy shit it's like a goldmine here. Someone on YouTube or instagram should pick this up and do something with this.

                      Picked them up on Thursday. Should be here tomorrow. I will most likely soak, dry, and then put away until it gets a little cooler! This weather is hot hot hot!

                        Last thing I needed was more denim but couldn’t resist with this release.  Per usual, Alex and IH staff were brilliant… Special shout out to whoever hemmed these; flawless work on some pretty gnarly fabric.

                        I followed nephs direction w a warmish soak for an hour follow by a gentle wash cycle and drip dry. Below are the pre and post measurement (didn’t bother w the rise)

                        Waist: 31.1 to 30.2 (bounced back to 30.9 w half a day of wear)
                        Thigh: 12.2 to 12
                        Hem: 7.8 to 7.7
                        Inseam: 32.5 to 30.7

                          That fit is spot on, @Bren 👌🏽

                          Use it or lose it.

                            Thanks for reporting back in on the shrinkage and the re-expansion, @Bren .  And yeah, that's a great fit!

                            Mine arrived a couple of days ago but I haven't even had a chance to take pre-soak/wash measurements!  I will report back this weekend.

                            Blanket-line all the things!!!

                                Hey all, haven't been on here in a while.  I picked these up right when they came out.  I really struggled with the sizing and went back and forth between 33 and 34.  Went with 34s and did not get as much shrinkage as I thought I would.  Fit picks are after a one hour hot soak and a hot wash.  Feel like I probably could have sized down.

                                  I dont see anything wrong with the fit. They look relaxed in a nice way.

                                    To be honest, for me that would be to big..

                                    Size down may have not even be answer.

                                    Maybe a 666 would work better or 634.

                                      Thanks, appreciate it, but I think @Kasi  hit the nail on the head.  I was in 888s a few years ago, but have been wearing 634s the last year.  I was in 666s for a minute when my weight was down a bit, but they are uncomfortably slim for me in the heavier weights.  I might pick up the 634 21/23 before they sell out and then make a final decision.  Thanks for the feedback, I'm hoping to be more present around here again now I have a bit more free time.

                                        Fwiw, don't discount the 666 uhr till you check out the measurements. These seem to be cut a little more generously in the top block and thigh than their 21oz counterparts for the same tag. Mine didn't shrink at much as I was expecting either and very quickly stretched back in the waist so they're very comfy.

                                          @Soleamp:

                                          Feel like I probably could have sized down.

                                          I had similar experience with the 555UHR.  Went with my normal tag size which had posted dimensions a little larger than my typical.  The tag size down had posted dimensions that were perfect without the shrinkage.  I went with the slightly larger dimensions thinking the shrinkage would pull it in, but after a few days of wear they are now stretched back out a little bigger than I prefer.  If I get another pair, I’m going to purchase as I normally do with the dimensions I want as if no shrinkage.  Then after soaking and washing, I’ll stuff myself in them like a sausage and wear them around the house till they stretch back out.  I should have known better since I had experienced the same thing about five years ago with the 3Sixteen Kibatas.  I’ve learned my lesson with raw - won’t happen again for me.  BTW - they don’t look bad (as mine don’t either) but I know it’s a matter of personal preference and how you like them to look and feel more so than what others may notice.

                                          No one’s happiness but my own is in my power to achieve or to destroy.
