IH-666-UHR - Ultra Heavy - Devil's Fit (Slim Cut)

[gazeboarder]

Anyone have any thoughts on my color question?

Is the color on the IH-666-UHR much lighter than the regular 21oz denim?  The pictures make it look royal blue compared to the midnight blackish blue of the regular 210z denim.

I have the 555-01's.  In person what is the difference visually in terms of the denim.

I've never seen the UHR in person, but I'm pretty sure Giles answered this question in the 1955 UHR thread, and the answer was yes–it looks bluer and lighter, and of course fades faster.

If someone emails me, then I will take a photo of a few denims together.  My bandwidth to remember posts like this "after hours" is shite.  I can't ignore/forget emails…

Great fit.
I am waiting for mine. Will arrive on Tuesday. Was thinking of waiting with wearing them until my 666s are falling apart. But now I do not know. My 666S are in for a repair anyway. So…..

Just ordered a pair of these, my first pair of raw denim jeans.  I ordered waist 33, think they should be fine but a bit unsure!  My Levi's and other jeans and trousers are always W32 L34, so what you reckon?

[Seul]

Levi's sz 32 could be close to a 34" actually after some wear… So the 33 should be ok...

[Jaylaz]

So am I right in thinking the 33's start off at 34 waist then shrink to 33 after a soak but stretch back out to 34 waist with a bit of wear?  Then do they shrink back again after a wash or remain at about waist 34?  Sorry, want to get this right!

[Seul]

33 is 34 before a wash (or soak), 33-ish after one, and will get back to 34-ish after some wear… They might shrink a little bit after another wash, but that will only be temporarily...

[Jaylaz]

Sounds good to me, thanks for putting my mind at rest.

@Jaylaz you’ve certainly made an excellent choice for your first pair of raw's! My first pair were far inferior jeans.
They’ll be perfect.
