IH-666S-UHR - 21/23oz Ultra Heavy Raw Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans

[BlueBlood]

The highs have finally dropped below 70 F here, so I broke in my new pair today. I wore a pair of the 777S-UHRs last winter and, while they fit and faded great, they draped oddly around my knees, even after 60+ wears. I’m guessing that this was due to the combo or the thick fabric and slimmer fit around the knee. My 666s drape much better. Very excited to get these faded!

Long shot, but is there a re-stock planned for these?

[Alex]

Yes, but not for a year or so

Raw fit pics of a non-jorted pair of UHRs. It’s been a while since I wore anything cardboard-y new & heavy. It was almost like discovering the brand again. Wtf

Gave them a soak & machine hot wash. Currently drying. These will be dubbed the winter traveling fat pants.

Get ready to crank that A/C, Rox.

Hey guys,
almost a month in my UHRs feeling pretty good so far. Surprisingly comfortable!

[pechelman]

Coming up on 4mo and just gave these a wash after their initial soak/wash routine. So many blues. Feeling so good too after cleaning, getting pretty soft... All things considering that is

[pechelman]

Hanging these up for January. Four months and its first real wash after the initial soak and wash uhr dance routine.

@pechelman love it! Love the sharp fades of UHR!

[Davids_denim]

Man, this UHR is something special.
I’ve had much more painful denim at lower weights.
Question for the pros, how’s this compare to the xhs?

[pechelman]

Uhr is much harder faced, crispy by comparison, and less breathable. Xhs is definitely softer and more cozy feeling, almost like the inside is brushed, while also feeling thicker and less dense.

I.e. you need both

[Davids_denim]

@pechelman I absolutely do need both

[Kfactor]

Any idea of timeline for a restock?

[Alex]

Not at the moment, no ETD on our order

guys i have measured my pair of jeans... i am a size 34 normally. Would the 34 in IH 666s UHR fit me post soak? The thighs and waist seems pretty good.
Is it engineered to be a 35 ish pair and shrink to a 34 post soak and machine wash? the latter would be the question.

Thanks before!

Hi @freiheitsgrad. There is no exact science with denim and how it reacts, but we expect an approximate 1.0" shrinkage in the waist with the pre-wear wash/soak, but will then stretch back out to approximately pre-wash/soak sizing with time and wear. So it is advised to size for them to fit pretty spot on from the off, with a touch of wiggle room to allow for the shrinkage. For all intents and purposes the waist will end up roughly around where they start out the bag once the shrinkage has been counteracted by the stretch.

@Bailey hi Bailey. Thanks for the info! ill follow IH´s guideline to soak it and be ready to wear. Fitpics later!
