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

@Sunnergren, personally, I can't go longer than 30 days between washes.
I wear mine to work (which is labor/dirt intensive), and I can't deal with the sweatiness/grime you're describing. My job is also public facing, so I have to be presentable at all times.
If someone has a simple office job, I'm sure they can go far longer.
Do what feels right to you, but if they feel gross.....they are gross.

haha ain't that the truth

@Sunnergren my best advice is to not stress too hard about achieving a certain look. Try to let your lifestyle dictate the fades. The UHR is a treat, just try to enjoy the journey.
I think I pushed my pair 4 months with the first wash then monthly after that. -
Thanks guys! Will probably push a few more days until first wash, can’t wait!

@jpvisual in my opinion the UHR is softer and cause its smaller in Oz it feels more pliable. I feel its a combination of tough, soft at times, hairy but nice. I definitely love it. The 25oz is a beast initially, tough and intimidating if you havent tried it before. But once you get over the initial hump, you get used to it. Im still breaking that in though....its still early days. Im currently working on both
but am using the UHR as my daily and its been awesome.... -
@warriors22 , fellow sneakerhead here: I see you in them Nigel's!

@jpvisual. The 19L as pants will not feel as rigit as the jacket. Not even close. Yes is a tighter weave and its crispy when new but they soften up very nicely with a velvety feel and they fade with alot of character. I wouldn't discount them based on how the jacket feels.

@Phil_NYC they look amazing! Love the asymmetry low left leg.
-
@Phil_NYC they look incredible man
-
@Sunnergren and @Jord Thanks! They have become my favorite pair of jeans are about 1000% more comfortable that they were at the start.
-
@Phil_NYC just for my knowledge how much more softer do they change? Or does it stay relatively the same by the 10th month?
-
First month was brutal, like sandpaper and the waist band would dig into my waist / hips very painfully. They gradually improved until about month 6 and then it was like they gave up the fight and became sweatpants.
