IH-777-UHR - Indigo UHR 21/23oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered
-
Got a pair coming shortly! Didn't size down on these, hopefully I don't regret that…Waist was a little big but the rest of the numbers looked good. Rob was super helpful finding the smallest they had.
This will be my first pair of UHR. Had lots of others, but I pretty much stick with 25oz.
Im sure ready to give them a spin.

I like the fit you have on those 777 @AdamJ and I wonder how you get a seemingly relaxed overall fit on a supposedly 'super slim' cut? Do you go for a bigger waist size?
I'll remember to try on those 777 next time I get a chance. So far I haven't considered 777s an option for me as I normally favor relaxed fits on upper block and thighs. But your pics got me rethinking… ::) ::) -
@motojobobo Went for as close to my actual waist as possible on these, started at 32.2 which had just a touch of room. I have quite slim legs so the fit is quite relaxed on most 777 for me, can't really make anything straighter such as the 666 work!

He's also lost a fair bit of the taper, which is the slimmest part @motojobobo

After 7 days of wear i'm still a bit unsure about this one. After a soak and a machine wash the fit turned out to be comfortable & not too wide. The denim has softened up but it will take some more time to tame the beast. Also got some first fades, incredible how fast they seem to fade and how nice and hairy they are. I wore these yesterday on a sunny day with 23°C and they got really hot, def. not a summer pant! Glad it's cooling down so i can continue to wear em. I'm sure these will look & feel great once they are worn in (I'm really looking forward to the day). I'm not the patient guy - all in all i prefer the 21oz "out-of-the-box-comfort" but the UHR's are true piece of Iron Heart Art, really great craftsmanship! Thank's to @AdamJ for checking sizes and giving helpful advise!

Thanks for the info bud. I think you will Grow to Love these for their own reasons. They are so
Beautiful and well made. Plus once the fading starts in earnest, you might be hooked! -
@Matty123 Yeah - just gonna take some time, they still need to settle and find their place on my skinny arse - they‘re great pants though! Here‘s how they fit, i don’t think i could have gone a size smaller, would be too tight and uncomfortable, also because of the heftyness of the denim (and i think i want a second kid someday.
) …

@thomas01 thank you - actually i had to size down: my 777s 21 blk are tag size 32 and the UHR are tagged 31. but measurements on both are almost the same.

They look good now and will look bloody great. The truth is that UHR is seriously badass denim but it does require a different attitude to the other IH denims. The fit of all cuts seem funky and different at first as the loomstate factor means the shrinkage gives cuts that are subtly different to their sanforised iterations. In addition the nature of the denim means it creases, folds and hangs in strange ways.
All that passes with wear and what you end up with is something quite unique and beautiful. Hang in there.

@thomas01 perfect fit !

Looks good so far, and I think you’re on the right track with wearing it for a few days and then giving it a hot soak (I’d go ahead and give it a hot wash actually just to be sure you get all the shrinkage out of them). After that, just wear the shit out of them and they’ll be awesome in no time.
