Quick wear reference shots.. these are around 16months now.. worn basically everyday for around 8months then one quick wash. Hot summer and starting a pair of wabash painter trousers meant wear went down a bit. Now they are both in a sort of rotation but get plenty of wear.

Can’t decide between these and the 19oz Lefty as my next pair. I’m rocking a pair of 888S-21 right now. I really enjoy them, but the fabric is so comfortable that for my next pair I want something closer to the “heavyweight raw denim experience”.

@NomadCrow The 19oz still feels quite heavy. It is unsanforized denim as well and one washed. Just not shrink to fit like UHR. Get both!

Get both!

Always.

@chillmonroe Feb was our ETA but not heard an update in a short while. Hopefully!

busted out my 634 UHR after spending the last few months rotating my 666 SBG and 555 XHS and it was a nice reminder of how much I love this denim. with the next batch of UHR on the horizon and the potential for it being the final run, feels like I should be putting away a few bucks for this drop...!

For those who normally don't fit into a 666 topblock, did the 666 UHR work for you?

I'm more of a 634 fit generally, but the measurements on the last run make me hopeful I can finally get the slim straight. With the 634s about to release, wondering if I should hold out for the 666 in hopes it works out or not. My tightest thigh comes in at 13" on my 777S-21, and prefer a little looser than that. I had a tag 36 666-142 and those limited my full mobility. I generally shoot for a waist of 37-37.5" after stretch

@wjw. We obviously do not know the measurements on the new batch of UHR but innthe previous run you will have to go tag 36 to achieve the desired waist and at that tag size the 777 had a bigger thigh than the 666 which starts at 13.3 inches before shrinking. I would be very carefully if I was you.

[wjw]

@yannis Yeah, I know it's a fine line. I'm generally a tag 36 in other cuts. Is it a correct assessment that shrinkage seems to be around a quarter inch give or take loss in the leg width measurement following provided guidance? Can't tell if it's worth the risk holding out for the sizing of the new batch of 666, or just go 634, where I know fitting won't be an issue, just maybe baggier than my preference

[yannis]

How the top block fit you on the 634. If the top block fits nice the same tag size 666 will be slimmer in the top block. The top block of the 666 its pretty slim.

@wjw if you normally have issues with the 666, then I would seriously suggest sticking with the 634 especially in the UHR. You will have more satisfaction out of sticking with a cut that you know will work for you.

Thanks for the sound reasoning
