IH-777S-UHR - 21/23oz Ultra Heavy Raw Selvedge Denim Slim Tapered Cut Jeans

@Vincent-Vega I'm petty sure once the Indigo Invitational ends, there's a good few months downtime - just incase you're expecting it to start again as soon as it ends, but these jeans will be a great option for you if you plan on entering

[Vincent Vega]

@Jord yeh, never entered before and I intend to register with these…..all going to plan of course! Think I saw October for entries.

@goosehd hey! Hope you’re having an awesome Saturday. You commented on my uhr 888 post a few days ago and just wanted to follow up with the conversation here. I got a slightly bigger pair than my ideal, by about half an inch, because the size lower I wouldn’t be able to put on at all, especially after I do the initial soak. Did I make the right decision or is it just one of those thing where maybe the jeans don’t work out for me at all with the given sizes?

Ideal 33.25
What I got 33.8
Next size lower 32.2

@harleylawhorn I'm not goose, but I think they'll shrink after your first wash and stretch a little, depends how they fit elsewhere if they're too big etc but I actually prefer a little room in the waist, total preference though. But .65" wouldn't be a deal breaker for me, especially since they'll shrink

[goosehd]

@harleylawhorn it they are large on you now, then they will be too large in the future. Undersizing by a whole size is bad because you will never stretch them out that much.

[harleylawhorn]

@Jord thanks Jord. Appreciate it. Yeah, I think that best case. Def better than undersizing

[harleylawhorn]

@goosehd right, undersizing is def never the way to go. I’m getting that I made the best decision that was available to me. But when I get them on Monday it’ll be the test of whether they will work out in the long run. Thank you

[goosehd]

@harleylawhorn until you try them on, everything will be speculation. Once you have them, if they fit well you have a keeper. Slightly large and a belt can be worn.

@harleylawhorn after owning multiple pairs of IH jeans at once I tend to lean towards having them on the bigger side as being too small literally anywhere makes them uncomfortable. I appreciate that sometimes it can seem like neither a 32 or 33 will work which sounds confusing, you made the right call going for the best option instead of risking "can I stretch them out".

Hope they fit like a glove!

[harleylawhorn]

@AdamJ Thats great to hear Adam. Really appreciate the input and I look forward to getting them. Have a great Sunday!

Is the 12.5" rear rise on the tag size 31 accurate?

[JoshC]

@JES600 Thank you good spot, this was a typo just updating as we speak should be 14.4"

[JES600]

A couple questions.

How much shrinkage can be expected in the thighs?
On my fully stretched jeans (weeks of wear after wash) the waist measures 32.5" to 33". Will that tag size 31 raw 32.5" stretch bit more? The tag 32 is probably too big for me.

[ChrisC]

@JES600 Hi JES600,
All dimensions will shrink proportionally to the waist when washed for the first time, and the waist usually shrinks up to 1".

However, any dimension under tension will stretch out proportionally to the waist as well, so the thighs can also stretch out a little after soaking. It's not an exact science, but the thighs could stretch out to some degree depending on how much tension they're under.

Will this last run be available at other retailers or just IHUK?

Mine have arrived. After a quick fit check they are now back in the bag and stashed in my wardrobe ready for the next Indigo Invitational……..however, there’s a little devil sitting on my shoulder saying ‘no, don’t wait let’s get them soaked and get them on. You know you want to’

[WithBongInHand]

@Vincent-Vega dude I’m in the same boat with the pair of 555s I just picked up. I’ve never done the Indigo Invitational. I’m pretty sure I’d hate wearing the same jeans every single day for a year but I also want to take the challenge.
