IH-1955-UHR - Ultra Heavy Raw 1955 Cut
-
That would be awesome, thank you!
-
Amen to that

First wear of my W31 1955 UHRs. Rigid and rough in their raw state as Giles says! I was hoping for rain to moisten them but there was only light drizzle
They will go in a cold soapless wash tonight, otherwise I will be very sore (quite apart from abrasion of the constructional stitching)! Its nice that they've got the thicker thread of the 666 25oz.
The shape is very 1955 and the narrower hem should mean that they will not go down over my feet when I'm wearing lightweight shoes as I don't normally cuff.

What's in your holster Jeansman - Colt 45?
Yep! I've got a specially-made umbrella handle lol!

My W31 1955-UHRs nearly dry after having been showered with water on the washing line using a hose pipe! Loving those big pockets, 4 button fly and lovely denim

Lookin good!

The inseam on the pair which were thoroughly wetted on the washing line and hung to dry now measures 35.75 inches. I didn't measure them before, but I assume they were 36.5 as that is the inseam on the spare pair bought at the same time. I'm assuming that the shrinkage will end up more than 3/4 of an inch, but then I'm used to LVC shrink-to-fit and haven't yet properly washed any Iron Heart.

Thanks Jeansman.
I went down to Gosport today, and measured all the pairs in my size. One turned out to have a 37 1/8" inseam. Sold to the gentleman with the reasonably long legs!
If they shrink by 1.5" to 2" then they'll end up somewhere between 35" and 35.5", so should be fine.

Very resourceful, Graeme - well done! I was once looking for longer lengths of LVC at American Classics and had them all strewn over the shop floor while they were measured - they would give me discount on LVC! Do you get a personal customer's discount at Iron Heart? If so, what is it? When are they open?
