        @Heavy_blue Thanks! This is actually my first pair of IH's. But to answer your question in a simple way, I sized down once from my usual and standard waist size (30 down to 29). I ended up buying a 30 as well and they were way too big so I stuck with the 29. They were very tight in the waist at first and almost unbearable. About 1 week in they were bearable, and 2 weeks in comfortable. Now they give me no issues.

        @Peterldavey Appreciate it! Cant wait, loving them so far.

            Initial evo is looking good, @kelton!

            I decided to get mine further hemmed (wasn't feeling the double-cuff look) and am much happier with the single cuff. Getting some wear on mine before temps get back up near 100 tomorrow and Saturday. Next week's forecast shows highs in the 70s, so I should be able to get additional summer wear then as well.

              How much can one expect these to stretch in the waist after the intital pre-soak and wash? Easiest to just order true to measured size from the jump?

                Approxiamately one inch in the waist. So yes, order a pair that fits from the start.

                    If you want a more fitted top block then a 666 could be more your kind of thing, do know that the UHR run a little larger due the shrink to fit way of making this kind of denim. In the end it’s on you to decide if you want to soak, wash and keep them, do know as well that the UHR fabric is very stiff and rough and takes some time to settle down and molding to your body shape. At least that are mine observations of the UHR.

                      I picked these up upon release and finally got them soaked and ready for wear.

                      Looks like denim truly is the fabric of our salvation.

                        Very nice fit. They are going to wear in beautifully.

                            Little update on my pair. About 5 months worth of wear here. Been wearing them extra hard lately-taking them hiking and mountain biking (still a bit of mud on them in these pics lol). Falling in love with them more and more every day!

                              Those are coming along nicely @kelton ! Beautiful. Do other mountain bikers give you crap for wearing them? I'm a mountain biker as well. My friends are to biking what I am to raw denim, as in they ride kitted out to the max, they would trash-talk me hard if I showed up to the trials in jeans lol.

                                Thanks @Salted Racer ! I definitely got a lot of weird looks while on the trail and a bunch of “wtf are you wearing”s from my friends lol. But all good, they don’t know what we know!

                                          Hi, sorry about the pic focus. Am I kidding myself with this size? These are 30, and my 32s feel way too big now that I've worn them in. Room in the waist and rise is good but the thighs are snug. Maybe cold soak? Anyone going dry with these?

                                            Wouldn’t recommend dry UHR, they’ll get trashed pretty quick. I think you’re going to need a size up to be able to soak all the shrinkage out and not be super uncomfortable in the thigh.

                                            That said, after a soak and wash, the areas that are under soak will stretch
                                            Back to your presoak measurements. They look like they would be too tight to enjoy, from where I sit.
