@Oaktavia I will. I want to give them another 20 days for a total of 60 days, maybe just depends how dirty they get. Its drywall mud so it washes out pretty easy.
-
@jmj Wow! I’ve been afraid to get paint on my pants by wearing them to work. But this may be the picture I need to get me over my fears!
Very cool to see these jeans being used to the most of their ability
Also, welcome to the forum! I see you joined today

I did my initial soak today. How long are you guys doing the 2nd wash for? Are you doing it hot? I might have to hand-agitate as I don't really have access to a washing machine that I trust right now unfortunately.
-
@jackdc100 After doing an initial soak in the bath I washed mine, inside out:
- 30c
- 600rpm
- 30mins
They were quite tight after this but loosened up pretty quickly. This was then my standard wash cycle each time they needed one

Great! Thank you:)

@jackdc100 I’ve never put mine in the washer and had them for years. Just tub soak and hang dry when needed. I did do an initial hot soak with as much agitation as I could get around to while doing other chores.

@bobbychacha they look great especially with that UHF.
-
@Oaktavia thanks brother! I think everything looks good with that UHF - IMO it’s one of the best!

@Oaktavia Rough estimate of 60. I’m planning on wearing them another 14 to 20 days and wash them again.
-
Does the shrinkage on the 21/23 oz stretch back to how you bought them or should you buy to take into account the sizing after the initial soak? eg a 32” waist will shrink buy 1” after initial soak - should I buy 32” or 31”? Thanks

@Gavin666 Here is the information regarding shrinkage on the product page: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/bottoms/IH-634S-UHR.html
If you look under the details tab you will find most if not all the information you’re looking for:
Thank you @tody for helping and excellent advice.

Looking snagging the last pair on IH Germany. The 555 give me diaper butt when I stand up and 666 do slightly whereas 777 doesn’t. Can someone who has these let me know what the butt/top block area is like on these please? I have a flat butt so don’t want a roomy Jean! These in a 31 seem spot on which a bit more room in the thigh and comparable to my 32 777 (obviously without the straight leg!). No other UHR cut seems to work as thigh gets to small. Thanks guys
-
The 634 has a similar rise to the 666 but has a wider profile thought. It's Iron hearts straight cut. It compares closer to the 666 but wider hip, leg and knee measurements. If you like the top block of the 666, you will like the 634.
-
@yannis thanks. Sounds ideal but unfortunately IH Germany don’t cover taxes and fees and I thought they did. Will have to wait for UK restock.

A couple more months of wear.
