IH-888-UHR - Indigo UHR 21/23oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut

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.

Hi everyone.
This would be my first pair of raw denim jeans. I'm currently a size 36 in XHS.

Would you recommend ordering a size 38 because of shrinkage?

@fadesandkicks

I would stick with 36 as will stretch back out. Check all the other measurements also though.

@fadesandkicks. Tag size means nothing. Measurements is what you want to focus and they have not being released. Having said that if this run is anything like the last one I would take same tag size as my XHS as they start bigger to account for the shrinkage.

@fadesandkicks the trick with UHR is to buy them with the measurements that are closest to your ideal. You want them to fit perfectly out of the bag. When you soak and wash them the first time, they will shrink. After a few wears the waist should stretch back out to preshrink measurements. The thighs should stretch out some. Length will not stretch back.
