IH-555S-UHR - 21/23oz Ultra Heavy Raw Selvedge Denim Super Slim Cut Jeans

[chillmonroe]

Just scored a pair of these today. I have no experience with raw denim but Ross and Josh were super helpful walking me through sizing and stuff. I’ve also never worn the 555 cut, coming over from 666. Got em hemmed cause as Ross said, gotta soak and wash em anyway and at that point returns are no go. Stoked to see how they are

@chillmonroe you're very welcome, let us know how you get on!

Just got a pair of these and I literally can't button them up even when I try without them on. Does anyone have any ideas. I have two pairs of xhs selvedge and two jackets and a and have never had this issue.

@jrb1975 Sharpie, needle nose pliers, wooden dowel, a drum stick, etc. to stretch the hole. Old hacks that work for many of us.

Every time I buy something 20oz+ I have the "oh shit realisation" just before they arrive that I need to button them... Goose gave some good tips, I use a sharpie and a pair of pliers

[jrb1975]

@goosehd thank you ,wow those button holes are something else but i got them and these are unbelievable raw denium jeans. These raws are like nothing ive ever seen before so different from the sbg's and the couple pairs of extra heavy raws ive got. Also the denium i believe must be incredibly difficult to produce these are true armor and stiff and I could use them to sand my deck as well

What would ya'll recommend hemming these to account for potential shrinkage? I normally get my jeans hemmed to a 32, was thinking 33.5/34 on these?

[indigo_nico]

@dirtyframer my UHR shrank a fair amount in the inseam - from 36.5" to 34.75" in a 634. not sure how different it would be in a 555 though. this was following the initial soak/wash instructions before wearing.

[dirtyframer]

@indigo_nico looks like if I gambled at 2" longer than normal I would be safe
