This has probably been asked to death, but should I expect .5 inch shrink in the thigh/knee?

Nope. Won’t happen, and they’ll stretch out again anyway. With the UHR after shrinkage and stretch you’re looking at them being at or just short of original measurements.

Heya, Reuben, glad to see you back online!

I had a pair of UHR years ago but I forgot the rules of the whole sizing game with them.  I thought that we were able to get stretch beyond the original raw measurements, but maybe I'm wrong.  Is the raw measurement pretty much the cap of the stretch?

[mention]weftyarn [/mention] big fan of yours on ig. Keep up the good work. I guess I better jump on these at launch.

Speaking of stretch, so I guess even though these are "raw", it doesn't mean they stay shrunk. So I'm usually a 35 for the 555, for these the 34s look pretty spot on compared to my favorite pair of 555 (except with the extra knee room). So 34 for me? Or 34 for me!

@weftyarn the 40 looks good to me! I think I will wait a little after they release because these will primarily be for Fall/Winter. The size 40s usually stick around for a few months.

Happy to hear that @gniquil IG is shifting away from stills though, which I am not a fan of…

@atm23 Exactly my thought. I don’t have the balls to wait though. Those 34s might go fast

Hei buddy.

They may go a little past in places with a lot of pressure on them.

Thanks, R!

Thanks, R!

My experience with UHR is that the transformation is more in the fabric and the way it fits. The change is immense. Size wise if they are a little big and awkward when raw, you’ll be good after the shrinkage.

Gotcha!

Are these really going to be in continuous production?  I would feel better if I could continue saving prior to the party.

Sh**, totally forgot about the changed shipping conditions to Germany

Can you guys put a 34 to the side for me to pick up at the party?
Looking for a 88-89cm waist & tightest hem possible.

The saved 75€ will make the piggy bank happy be spent on anniversary gear at the party

Buy them and stack them…...

[weftyarn]

Dumb me didn’t recognize the stacking option. Thanks for the reminder, G. Order placed.

All denim should be unsanforized, unrinsed and raw like how some of my first dates used to be before I got married.

[Matt]

Nice.

[gniquil]

@Giles I wonder if you guys could make a video of how the UHR denims are made. It's such a cool story. It makes me even more excited about my pair.

Btw, kudos to your team… I live in California and it seems it's scheduled to deliver on Monday.
