IH-888S-UHR - 21/23oz Ultra Heavy Raw Selvedge Denim High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans

@Axel-HH Yeah man for sure! And thanks, the UHR really is a special denim. Nice to know you were at 120 with your first wash. I'll post here in a couple days after they're fully dry.

@Oaktavia amazing stuff. can't wait to see how they progress after the wash. I'm very tempted to take my new 634UHRs and start them soon..

[Duffputter]

@Oaktavia i’ve been following the journey between your alternating XHSib and UHR. Which of the two have become softer? I’ve had XHSib and XHS but never the UHR and thinking of picking up a pair.

[Oaktavia]

@louisbosco thanks man, your competition pair of UHR you shared was a big inspiration too. I was just wearing my 634XHS around the house yesterday. I think that cut is the most comfortable. Stoked to see if you break out your 634UHR.

[Oaktavia]

@Duffputter I'm so glad you've been checking out the journey. XHSib is the softer of the two. But UHR I highly recommend.

@Oaktavia the denim is definitely the winner here. I'm currently enjoying the kapital century denim right now. they are slow and definitely age a lot different. I'll definitely be back in normal denim soon..

I love that normal means 23oz jeans.

Post wash clean jeans aren't dirty.

[Oaktavia]

6 months, 1 initial soak, 0 wash.

Was going to wash them at this 6 month mark but since they’ll make 7 months exactly the day before IIY5 begins, I’m just holding off until then.

I regret throwing a multi tool in the back pocket next to the wallet lol - we live and we learn.

@worn2fade back pocket looks awesome bro!

[worn2fade]

@jfox1980 Thanks a lot man!

[Oaktavia]

@worn2fade these are really going to pop after a wash. Are you going to machine wash them?

[worn2fade]

@Oaktavia I’ve always been more of a hand wash kind of guy. Honestly, the machine scares me dude. Do you feel like a machine wash with no spin is technically more efficient than a hand wash?
