IH-777-UHR - Indigo UHR 21/23oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered

[tody]

@SKT Same for me, it's either 666 or 777. One exception, I have a rather narrow pair of the 9634Z that suits me rather well.

I quickly got used to the UHR.
It's really interesting how you need to find your path into heavy denim - I can remember when I tried on a 25oz @ IH Hamburg and said that I will never wear something like that. Fast forward one or two years, and I easily broke in my first pair last spring.
Now with the UHR, I followed the advice and general consensus how to treat them, and they were comfortable from the start. It's a stark contrast to what you feel in the store when you first lay your hands on them.
The only thing with this pair is sizing - in the waist they streched back and beyond noticeably. Not to the point that they're too loose, but they are rather roomy in comparison. Well - I can tuck my shirt in easily, so that's a bonus. I wouldn't give that a second thought if there hadn't been a size 35, though - 34 would surely have been too tight. Inseam is cool, though - didn't shrink that much, so I can do a Tokyo cuff for the first time!

Once you wear 25oz there no going back.

@tody they look great

About a year old. Significantly softer then my XHS but I think I like the fading pattern on XHS more

guys imma pull the trigger on the 777-UHR. Do you think a 60degree wash for 2 hours would shrink it enough?

If you buy them from us, you will get these guidelines included in your package:

If you buy them from somewhere else, the guidelines still apply

@cricca

Man those look comfortable. For some reason the UHR is intimidating. How long before they became pretty comfortable?

[cricca]

@drewfonse I would say that they've been pretty comfortable all the time

[drewfonse]

@cricca

Ok! Good to know

[freiheitsgrad]

@Giles thanks Mr. Giles!

@don_pipone those fades are incredible! I hope you entered the competition this year because youll kill it

[don_pipone]

Close to 500 wear days and still going strong.

[Oaktavia]

@don_pipone wow 500 is an amazing achievement!

[don_pipone]

@Oaktavia thank you!
@swiss-jeansfreak would now say „Can‘t wait to see them after another 500 wear days“

[JunkPants]

@don_pipone Nice! Looking great, and holding up great.

@Tago-Mago @goosehd the last couple of pages of this thread may be in need of some slight moderator cleanup - this is the 'old' 777-UHR, whereas the current lineup has the 'new' 777S-UHR. I picked up an old pair two years ago and revived the thread. I believe the recent chatter belongs in the other one...

[goosehd]

@tody It will take a while to wade through as this thread is quite intertwined with the other. I’ll see what we can do.

[goosehd]

I’ve taken a jack knife and a sledgehammer to this thread and think everything is now in the right place. Now off to the 888 thread.

[don_pipone]

Gave them another wash and still, after so many wear days, it made some fades more pop and gave it a wee bit more contrast.
