@Soleamp is on point friends. Thanks for the smooth transaction and fast shipping. Being neighbors helped that along lol.They are a little big! I think my nicks insoles will fill up the volume nicely. Are the jeans to tapered or is that a good look?



Glad they worked out for you! Seeing your pics makes me regret selling them a little, even though they didn't really fit

Briselblack Keeper "Type2" Engineers - Black Waxed Fleshposted in Buying and Selling
I am the third owner of these from Stitchdown/Discord. I am selling because they did not fit them and they are not a great fit for me either. I am an 11D and they felt a touch short, but could be wearable. Too much room in the heel for me, which seems to be the norm for me with Briselblack engineers. Really cool boots with only a bit of wear, bummed they don't fit! Boots only, no box or bags. $425 shipped CONUS, Venmo or PayPal Friends/Family

RE: Washing your duds in sudsposted in General Chat
@Go-For-Chill I’ve never had an issue either doing it that way, which is my normal routine. I got this pair “new” on eBay with only one soak, never worn. I was surprised to see any marbling from just a soak…so maybe that wasn’t the whole truth. I ended up getting them pretty cheap, less than half of new, so I’m hoping to salvage them. I might try another hot wash, inside out and see if it helps calm things down

@popvulture OK, thanks, that’s what I was thinking. It’s been a while since I have had a pair of UHRs, but I remember them fading fast.

Just picked up these “new” 777UHRs off of eBay, only soaked. Does this look like marbling? How long do you think this would take to blend in?

RE: IH-888S-UHR - 21/23oz Ultra Heavy Raw Selvedge Denim High Rise Tapered Cut Jeansposted in Bottoms
Fwiw, don't discount the 666 uhr till you check out the measurements. These seem to be cut a little more generously in the top block and thigh than their 21oz counterparts for the same tag. Mine didn't shrink at much as I was expecting either and very quickly stretched back in the waist so they're very comfy.
Interesting, I didn't even think to check out the 666 UHR after my experience with the 666 XHS. The measurements actually look pretty generous. I put in an order for 634 UHR, but I will chat with the IHUK crew tomorrow and see what they have in the 666. Lots of those still in stock.
@John:
Feel like I probably could have sized down.
I had similar experience with the 555UHR. Went with my normal tag size which had posted dimensions a little larger than my typical. The tag size down had posted dimensions that were perfect without the shrinkage. I went with the slightly larger dimensions thinking the shrinkage would pull it in, but after a few days of wear they are now stretched back out a little bigger than I prefer. If I get another pair, I’m going to purchase as I normally do with the dimensions I want as if no shrinkage. Then after soaking and washing, I’ll stuff myself in them like a sausage and wear them around the house till they stretch back out. I should have known better since I had experienced the same thing about five years ago with the 3Sixteen Kibatas. I’ve learned my lesson with raw - won’t happen again for me. BTW - they don’t look bad (as mine don’t either) but I know it’s a matter of personal preference and how you like them to look and feel more so than what others may notice.
This is where I am at as well. If they are comfortable after a hot soak and hot wash, then (for me) they are probably too big.

RE: IH-888S-UHR - 21/23oz Ultra Heavy Raw Selvedge Denim High Rise Tapered Cut Jeansposted in Bottoms
I dont see anything wrong with the fit. They look relaxed in a nice way.
Thanks, appreciate it, but I think @Kasi hit the nail on the head. I was in 888s a few years ago, but have been wearing 634s the last year. I was in 666s for a minute when my weight was down a bit, but they are uncomfortably slim for me in the heavier weights. I might pick up the 634 21/23 before they sell out and then make a final decision. Thanks for the feedback, I'm hoping to be more present around here again now I have a bit more free time.
