IH-634-UHR - Ultra Heavy - Straight Cut Jean

[Fadez]

I call these my “Daddy Fat Stacks” because I sized up on them. One reason for comfort. The other is to put a pair of sweatpants underneath when winter is at its coldest and I need to be outside. At first it was rough. But as I’ve been lifting and getting used to the fit… they’ve slowly become my favorite pair. Looking forward to the evo in probably many years

Classic UHR fades.....

I wear these a few times a week usually and have been washing more than the others. Here are the recent before wash pics:

This is a pair I bought in December 2016 and started to wear in early September 2024, after 2 months - see posts in IH-634S-UHR - 21/23oz Raw Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo in https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/topic/12082/ih-634s-uhr-21-23oz-raw-selvedge-denim-straight-cut-jeans-indigo/7?=1731827530284

My December 2016 IH UHR 634s W32 L36 after 3 months. No soaks or washed, but sprayed with fabric refresher inside out once about 3 weeks ago, which made them go quite stiff.

My 2016 UHRs have now had one wash no soaks. Here they are after 6 months wear.

@Jeansman those look great. so you just wore them straight out of the bag with no wash or soak?

[Jeansman]

@bluemantra Indeed I did and still do!

[bluemantra]

@Jeansman do the fades ever shift after the first wash?

[Jeansman]

@bluemantra I didn't notice a great deal of difference at the time but it was noticeable. I never soak - I always wear them raw for as long as I can and then wash at a long temperature - in this case 30C to preserve the patch in particular and to limit shrinkage as these were tight (I bought nearly 8 years I got them out of the cupboard). Since they were washed they have started to fade faster.
