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

@Llew81 exactly right, I do the same. I am working on a pair of 888UHR and am at exactly 70 days today. This frame of reference helps keep me motivated and with something to look forward to as I advance on my fade journey. Planning to wash yours soon?

[Llew81]

@Oaktavia I was thinking to do so around the 6 month mark but in truth they just don't really need it. I guess all my wear coming over the winter probably helps. They don't smell at all, any bits of dirt or mud spatter from watching my kids play rugby just crumbles away fairly quickly so a wash hasn't seemed that necessary yet. Also it seems that the wear marks/fades seem to be accelerating now. Kind of like you need to break the back of them and then things really start to change.. I didn't really notice a huge amount of difference at all for the first 4 months or so, though that is partly because you just get used to what they look like currently rather than what they were to start

@Llew81 I find the same sort of thing happens in the winter, the jeans just don't get sweaty and grimey like they would if it was warm or hot. Makes sense to hold of if that is the case. Depending on where you are, things may heat up soon which may trigger the need for a wash. Either way, I'll be sure to check your continued progress here.

Today marks 8 months in my pair of 666-UHR’s. Washed first a 3 months now I wash them about every month or so! They just keep getting better!

Thought I’d pull the trust UHRs back out for a while. Was really feeling Alex the Blacksmiths chunky single cuff on ig so I figured I’d give it a go. Wife hasn’t told me it looks stupid yet!

[Oaktavia]

@Davids_denim chunky cuff FTW

[Davids_denim]

@Oaktavia yeah man, not sure why I didn’t do it sooner honestly.

[Oaktavia]

@Davids_denim call it an epiphany

[LittleRockRaw]

Yesterday marked one year of wear every single day in my 666 UHRs. The hype is real on this denim! They are fade monsters. I work an office job in advertising and marketing, and do a bit of furniture making on the side, and I didn’t really beat the hell out of these just wore them for daily living! Time to start on my 25oz or 18oz can’t decide!!

[Oaktavia]

@LittleRockRaw l love those fades dude, they look awesome. Go for XHS!

[LittleRockRaw]

@Oaktavia Means a lot coming from you my man!! Thanks so much! I am currently wearing my 666 XHS right now! They fit so much different from my 666 UHRs and my 777 XHS. Almost feel like the 634 on me! But it could be that they just need some time to settle down!

[Oaktavia]

@LittleRockRaw just takes some time to mold to your lower half. XHS is crazy like that!

[Davids_denim]

@LittleRockRaw lookin fantastic!

[LittleRockRaw]

@Oaktavia Yeah I have had these on ice for a while, but have never worn XHS hard before so I am pretty stoked about it! I've only really gone at 21oz, UHR, SBG, and the Lefty denim! I love how your UHR's, and XHS rotations pairs are coming along! They look so sick! I was actually just talking to my partner yesterday, and showing her your pairs! She was amazed by how fast you fade yours! So much props!

[LittleRockRaw]

@Davids_denim Thanks my man! I have been following along on yours for a bit now! I got my UHR and my I/B Western, and when I found your IG profile it was a huge inspo!

[Davids_denim]

@LittleRockRaw oh cool! Glad I could be of some inspiration to you. The UHR and 295ib are some of my favorites.

[Oaktavia]

@LittleRockRaw so glad you dig 'em buddy! Looking forward to seeing your XHS later down the dusty trail.
