IH-777-UHR - Indigo UHR 21/23oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered
-
first IH piece I acquired was a loom state Type III from Self Edge and I was hooked. Most of the IH jeans I have are unsanforized as were the Levis I bought back in the day. Getting the size right isn't rocket science and if you're off a bit that's part of the fun. Cuff the bitches. Or high water.
I'd love to see more loom state.

Gave my pair another try before summer hibernation, but it‘s way to warm for me.
Currently about 120 days in.

6 months / 2 washes. Love this stuff but dang it’s getting a bit hot for it.

Damn, great! makes me want to put mine on again, but yes, way too hot these days

So I soaked my pair after 6 weeks wear in June and put them away for the summer months. When I got them out this week (as the UK summer summer seems to be over in Manchester
) the waist was SUPER snug, uncomfortable. I have been enjoying a lot of pizza and red wine over the last few weeks! Anyway I bought a wooden waist stretcher from Amazon for £22. I figured the £22 was well worth the risk of it worked. So I wet the top block and with the help of a wrench I have successfully stretched them out about 3 inches!! Now they are really comfy again. Thought I’d share in case anyone else is in the same position. 
-
3 inches? Wow! That’s quite a lot!
What is the original waist size (tag)? -
They are a tag 35 and now they measure 38.5!

Got to be careful with wooden stretcher can rip the top button off the jeans.. it a risk

Yes I was very careful to keep a close eye on this. I think the UHR is pretty indestructible though!

Two months in and two soaks. Very happy with the lovely blue shades coming through. -
So basically a owned these a year, almost to the day. Although not anywhere near that for wear. Had some 25oz IB and some 14oz too. If I had to guess id say almost 150-200 days?
They had 1 machine wash and 2 soaks. With the last soak being yesterday morning.
Coming along very nice[emoji41]
