    I've dried a couple of pairs on occasion inside out with no ill effects. I did not take them to the point where they were completely cooked and removed them when they were still slightly damp. Medium heat instead of high heat (mainly for the leather patch).

      I tumble dry ALL my denim, without exception. I still haven’t ever tackled brand new UHR though. Only really effed up one pair of 301 Od 19 oz something back in the day. Grew to love how marbled they were pretty quickly.

        Before (white shirt) after (black shirt)… tried to do a similar photo this morning before work. You can see how the hip area tightened up… which is exactly what I hoped for. Lost some length too. Threw them on quick for the pic then changed into scrubs. Unfortunately it’s not possible to wear denim in the hospital 😂

            @DCWS2020 yeh they've really tightened up in the seat, same as my 555s did, but that was just from a wash.

            Wear them well 🤜 🤛

                          I got a pair from @Memphisakers about 2 weeks ago and been wearing them since. This is the nicest, most crazy pair of denim I've ever owned. Just look at that hair

                              Sizing question. I’m usually a TTS 34. But my most comfortable IH have stretched to 35 inches. I have big thighs thanks to powerlifting. Would people recommend a size 34 or 35 in the UHR given the shrinkage and less stretching of the denim compared to the 21oz?

                                @Piratedoc my advice would be to measure your best fitting denim with the ‘how we measure’ video and take that as a starting guide. UHR doesn’t stretch a lot imo. It’s shrinks due the soaking and the washing and will stretch back to pre-soak measurements. But not any further then that, at least that’s my opinion.

                                  I Second the minimal stretching point above. Mine are still a bit snug after wearing them this past fall/winter.

                                    Thanks for the input. I guess a corollary question would be did anyone size up 1 from their 21oz denim size?

                                      I didn’t size up but the measurements on my pair were larger in the waist out of the bag. But definitely glad i did that cause the UHR doesn’t stretch that much. Measuring is key man! Otherwise drop the guys at IHUK a message for further assistance they are the best 🙂

                                        Amen to what @Heavy_blue said. 21OZ has way more give. I sized the UHR pretty similar to how I sized my Ducks - Go for the exact waist measures that I want to end up with.

                                        In the 21OZ I got the same Waist size as UHR (34), but they were a tad smaller from the start. That difference easily stretched out with 21OZ.

                                        Use it or lose it.

                                          I should have asked for a larger waist among the 32s (my typical 888 size) but I got them in Sept at the party and didn’t want to bother anyone with measuring. They’re fine though.
