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

@WhiseySandwich heck yeah

I recently got the 888-UHR soaked them for about an hour in warm water and threw them in laundry with my TCB type 1 jacket. Still waiting for them to dry. These are some pics before I washed them. I don’t expect them to stand up after they are dry.

Don’t be so sure.

I just got them hemmed to L 33. I prefer faux cuff for tapered jeans, but the 888 cut has bigger leg opening than my other relax tapered jeans. I have been thinking about hemming them even further to almost no cuff, but I will rock the faux cuff for now. I also noticed that despite the shrinks, the leg twists are barely noticeable.

First time I wore these since II began. Last time these were out of the closet they had just finished getting their first wash after 7 months of no wash.

211 days of wear.

Forgot how beautiful these look.

@Oaktavia dude these are just so next level.

[kojimastreets]

@worn2fade look sick. Also dying to know what kind of heat you’re packing in the back there

[worn2fade]

@kojimastreets Thanks bro! Got a S&W .38 Airweight. Im usually a Glock guy but since this pair of denim is my true size it’s hard to carry my 26/45 in them.

@kojimastreets @worn2fade FYI: talks of guns on here make some of our users uneasy. It’s a talk better held in private chats.

[Oaktavia]

@Oaktavia very curious what your favorite cut/pair is?

I love the 888 but will be moving on to the 634 cut afterwards. I have a few pair in 634 waiting for me next.

[kojimastreets]

@Oaktavia I hear you there. I picked up a pear of XHS634ibs in Osaka and the cut is super comfortable.

[Oaktavia]

@kojimastreets oh for sure and that's rad you were able to go there. I dig the 888 but I'm pretty skinny and don't fill them out in the trunk or thighs. The mid rise of 634 works better for me and straight cut down I think just feels and looks a nice silhouette.

@Oaktavia beautius! man seems like you just got those, they're crazy already. Your lap whiskers are on these are WILD. Every time see em I'm like those are def Oaks'

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Oaktavia speaking of different cuts...I was analyzing measurements on the 633 compared to the 888 just to see what they were all about and I think thats where I'd have a problem with anything but the 888. I dont think I could lose any butt/thigh space or I'd have to size up. I've already been sizing up in the 888 compared to my first pair....

[Oaktavia]

@WhiskeySandwich I picked them up in Gosport back in Sept 2024 for the party. Crazy how to time flies. The whiskers definitely are super crunchy when they are developing and hold their shape like heavy paper with UHR. It's crazy how stiff they are.

[kojimastreets]

@WhiskeySandwich You might be surprised by the 634s. I fill up the top half of my 888s and find I do the same with my 634s, but they still seem to fit less snug. I think the reason they haven't had a crotch blow-out yet is because of this too.
