4 days of wear and these have stretched back to post soak/wash measurements. I definitely have a long way to go with these. I really dig this fabric. My favorite pair of IH jeans to date. I personally don't find it uncomfortable at all, even new. It's a bummer these UHR will not be made anymore. I hope IH introduces a raw shrink to fit back in the lineup in the future. Amazing jeans!

Back from repair and still going strong. I bought these 1 size too big. I've learned to size down 1 inch in the waist from where you want them to end up. These have also loosened up a lot in the thighs to the knee (even though people say they don't change). My own body measurements thighs etc haven't changed a bit. Maybe just the 21oz. My 21oz sbgs also loosened up a ton. These are super soft and very comfortable now. Great summer jeans! Still going to wear these a lot.

@Sunnergren yeah all good. I'm really happy with how these turned out!

Special thanks to Alex F. for getting the measurements I needed! Fits just how I like my truckers. Highly recommend this jacket to anyone on the fence.

PS @worn2fade I soaked two 526Ls both within the the recommended IH temp (30-40C) 1hr, then into the machine for a gentle wash on cold no spin. Both jackets .5 inches off the shoulders, 1 inch off the length sleeves/body. Chest shrinkage was minimal.

I'm finally getting my IH shirt fit down with a couple of hard misses and some special help from the IH crew. Sold those off and picked up this one and really dig the fit! It's ever so slightly snug in the chest and shoulders, but not restrictive or uncomfortable. Shoulders are the constant issue that I found I need to get dialed in with these shirts as they seem to run narrow. It's the perfect weight to wear under my type iii jacket. Glad I was able to find measurements on the 33 that worked because I was told no more from that line coming in 2025.

@Tobi I think the jacket looks perfect. It depends on what you like though. I personally like my trucker jackets to fit slim and hit at the waist or close to. I also don't like to wear bulky clothing underneath. If I want to layer, I layer a parka over the trucker. That's just what I prefer. This one runs pretty long in the torso, even longer than the other modified type iii's I've noticed. I was just in a similar situation with these jackets. I decided to size down because the body length was just too much. I was concerned with sleeve length as well because they hit right at the wrist and I think that's perfect, but was concerned about the creasing and it riding up. The IH crew assured me the sleeves would not come up much at all especially when the jacket wears in. The bit of natural stretching/relaxing offsets the creasing in the sleeves. Time will tell. I really like how mine is fitting now.

First pair of 21oz 888s and they're fantastic! I tried getting into the 777s and 666s, but they were incredibly tight on my legs. This cut feels much better. I had concerns that these would be too tight as well, but after a couple hours they have loosened up already and are very comfortable. Thanks again @Alex for the last minute fit advice!

@worn2fade looks great!

With all these presoak photos I realized I should have posted mine.

A type iii in 18oz vintage fabric would be cool.

@AskAxel did you put them in the wash after you soaked them? If not you should do that. It's the agitation that will shrink them more. I soaked at 35c (I read later 30c is better to avoid marbling, but mine were fine) for an hour, then washed delicate no spin or detergent. They shrunk exactly the amount stated on the website. 2 inches in length, 1 inch in the waist, .5 inches in the thigh.

@SKT thanks! I think you're right. I tried them on again. They are just a touch too loose in the waist, but they're not even close to falling off or anything. I think keeping a belt on will help with fully stretching back, but not a big deal. Thighs and top block look and feel perfect. I think I'm going with it.

@SKT thanks. The waist is a little big that I'd need a belt even before I wash them. The top block and thighs fit perfect though so kind of on the fence.

Hey what do you guys think of this fit? I picked a pair of 888 UHRs up and love them. Tried these out. It feels great. I'm surprised because I thought they would be too tight, but the thighs feel perfect. I definitely would not go a smaller size. The thighs would be way too small. The waist band is kind of floating on my waist, not snug but not excessively loose either. If I were in 888s I'd pass if the waist was like that but the top block and thighs seem slim enough that it seems ok. I'm familiar with uhr so I know this is how they'll end up.

@goosehd This. @Bobcat-Sig these will stretch right back the post soak measurements pretty quick. Mine did in probably less than a week. If they're too big for your liking now, they're not going to get any better.

@Denimhead-0 thanks! What about the thigh? How does the rise affect the thighs? I'm guessing the fit can feel different in the thighs because of the lower rise? Meaning can you fit a smaller thigh measurement in the 666 or do you try to match what you have in 888?

For those who where both 666 and 888 cuts. Do you find the thigh & knee measurements carry over exactly the same or can you wear a smaller thigh size in 666 with a similar fit. Wondering how the lower rise affects the thigh fit.

@goosehd working on some UHRs so I have a bit of time

@JoshC waiting on these too. Hopefully in the future.

In any given tag size in the chart what is the tolerance up or down? Example if the chart says thigh 12 inches, what is the maximum up or down of that number?

@CosmoSix5 I just soaked and washed a new pair of UHR 888s @35c. I had .5 inches of shrink in the thighs and everything stretched back to post soak/wash measurements after a few days. If it fits well pre wash it will be good.
