634s-uhr on the cyclocross podium

Fresh pair of 555 XHS and IHG-081-ORA. Posted in the 555 XHS thread for fit advice but after a wearing around the house for a spell I think these are perfect.

finally, the temps in chicago are perfect for the ihj-114-blk. also day 39 of the ih-634s-uhr.

364 days since the initial soak/machine wash. Roughly 300 wears? Lost count once it got hot out, but that’s a safe estimate. Denim is probably slightly damp in these pics from yesterday’s soak/machine wash. Thought the wash would take more indigo out of the denim tbh, but I don’t care… I love these so much. Stoked the temps are cooling off in Chicago and I can get back to daily wear.

Chuy loves the xmas tree

Mr Marr, unless my eyes deceive me?

pulled the trigger on some 634s-uhr and i am beyond stoked on these!

the cuffs are huge, yes, but i dig the style. will likely get them hemmed at some point, but i love a big ol' rockabilly cuff.

since this forum was a huge help in finding the right fit for me, below are my pre and post soak/wash measurements done the IH way... (in inches with silly american fractions haha)

Spent a weekend in Zell am see at a cycling event I sponsored for work and kicked it with Ferdi Porsche on the Großglockner. Drove me up the mountain in the GT3 RS and down in the 911 Dakar. Awesome weekend of fast bikes and fast cars.

Chuy loves UHR as much as I do. Perfect for digging her toes in!

Just ordered a set of 666S SBG blind and nailed the sizing thanks to tips like these. Measured my 634S UHR the IH way and used those to guide my tag size in the 666. Looked at the waist, but also the thigh in particular since the 666 is a slimmer fit.

IH’s consistency in how a product is measured serves as a solid foundation for how to determine if a product is the right fit regardless of tag size. I’ve never encountered a company who is as helpful when it comes to sizing.

1.75 drinks in with this one:

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...!

my wife got me the tag size L and i swapped it for the XL when i picked it up in store. the L was a tailored fit and would have been fine if it only ever had a t shirt under it, though I suspected once the creases set in the sleeves they would have been too short. never imagined I'd be an XL in anything haha, but it was a nice lesson in going off the measurements and not the tag (shout out to @goosehd for the best write up on that). for reference, I'm a tag S in my Dickies jackets and tops.

@GraemeE truer words have never been spoken. 1.75 is where the magic starts haha

@nurunuru dammmmmmmmmn dude I've always wanted to do MDH. the badlands are such an amazing place. bummed to hear you had to go to the hospital, but at least you crossed that finish line!

@nurunuru that sounds amazing dude. the trip was great, my friend throws a mountain bike race there and it kicked my ass haha. Such beautiful landscape tho. Would love to go back in the Tacoma

@nurunuru did some cycling in Durango and all I could think about was getting my truck out there for some camping!

vinyl fades. fn love it.

been rotating some XHS & SBG lately and missing my UHR and this thread is stoking the UHR embers

Chicken in lemon wine sauce for dinner? CIDER TIME!
