…needed another pair of UHR and it was between the 555 and the 777cuts, went with the 555. Like 'rocker' pants. 
Super Slim Fit is kinda 'youth-anising'! 
...1 hour hot soak, delicate wash warm and hang dry. All stitching set.
…love me some UHR, great stuff.
…one hour hot soak, gentle machine wash warm and overnight hang dry. My first non-XHS.
…in the 'raw' game. :o Soak, wash and measure this weekend.
...loyal XHS'er but I resigned myself to a UHR after reading the back story on the production of this material, looks and feels just as hardcore as the XHS denim. 
...whether tag size 35 or 36 I'm always looking for a minimum 36.5 waist measurement and with this pair I asked the crew to go with tag 35 and look for the largest waist measurement which was 36.9. The 666 cut is a hugger in the top block and I wanted them to be comfortable right out of the gate...and they are. 
…I love all my Iron Heart gear but some pieces have a little more space in my heart and one of them is this CPO! This one will be evolving with me until they put me in the box! :o Hard core piece!
…broke the 'neph93 rule' and went straight to wash after one week of wear. Washed on cool water setting then spaced out and didn't set to 'delicate' and left it on 'heavy duty'. ???
...they got beat up to be sure but I think its all good. Here's the measurements after the flogging, unwashed new / one week wear, HD wash and drip dry:
waist-18"=36" / 17"=34"
front rise-11 1/4" / 10 3/4"
rear rise-16 1/2" / 16 1/4"
thigh-13" / 12 1/2"
knee-8.9 9" / 8 1/2"
hem-8 1/2" / 8 1/4"
inseam-35" / 34"
...tight and crispy but ready for a long haul of wear now!
…one delicate machine wash warm and tumble dry.
before and after:
shoulder-21.2 20.7
P2P-25.7 25.1
sleeve-28.2 27.5
back-32.0 31.1
waist-23.5 23.4
opening-25.2 24.4
...long road of evolution ahead. Love the contrast of the deep blue denim and the pearl pimpage. She's a keeper!
…it was the 'blue' in this Instagram pic from the cats in Germany that got me. Not the zipper model, I like the pullovers, but will go great with my IH-9526V Super Black Type 3 vest I'm thinking.
…@Oaktavia if you had to choose, better loose than too tight. Iron Heart belts are pretty cool!
…couldn't be happier! I was worried about it possibly being too long but that has been found to be unwarranted!
...working on a 'theme' here if you couldn't tell.
…vest arrived today, what a neat little clothing item! I can see slumming it down and styling it up equally! Awesomely versatile.
...the last XXXXL that Gosport had and it couldn't fit better.
…I think it looks like it fits perfect @Anesthetist!
…I felt like the sleeves and the body were a little long at first on mine also (sleeves being an inherent IH trait) but I've grown used to it. Besides even if I went down a size the sleeve length wouldn't have changed. :o
…@LewisStonehouse super heavy duty black jeans! As I said earlier I got some marbling from my wash method so I have relegated these as strictly my work pants, which takes the heat off all my other pants, which is a good thing. ???
...I find that there's a lot of room for movement in the 888 cut! Tough stuff that XHS.
…@neph93 @Paul9221 these baby's weren't a cheap date that's why initially I was like 'I just f*%$#@d my pants up'! But your'e right I'm cool with it now. That being said I won't be as reckless with future wash routines. ::)
…@cool_breeze_ the boots are Ariat Heritage Ropers. Inexpensive boot. They were actually my son's and they were a little tight on him so I offered him $10.00 a boot and he bit! I bought a black pair also.
…going to attempt to post a pic of 'Moi' in the super monster killer 634 XHS jeans. These were brand new with no soak at the time of this pic.
…gotta toughin' up to break in these babies! I've been a Levi's 505'er for the majority of my life, no more!
...have a pair of 555'er's on the way that I had hemmed and their going to be a closer fit to what I'm used to but I do like these 'old schoolers'! 25oz! Tough Stuff!!
