IH-634-UHR - Ultra Heavy - Straight Cut Jean

[Max Power]

Is there any UHR with some Fading going on? Would still like to see, wether they fade like the SRs.

Gonna wear my pair at the Sailorsnight, just for you buddy Hope there will be some fading…

Needs to get a little bit colder before I get started on my 666.  Couple of weeks, maybe.

Honeycombs gonna look nice in some months

[el padre]

Nice twist, there.

[JCMx800]

Love the fit, and the stuff I did in them.

[Max Power]

And what was his opinion?

[JCMx800]

Indigoed skin.

Is there any trace of slunbiness on the UHR denim?

[JCMx800]

Not really, it´s tight and hairy.

Silly questions… should I soak unsanforized denim inside out or, it doesn't matter? Would using Woolite darks help at all with preventing indigo loss (or vinegar, for that mattter--so I've heard)?

[el padre]

Yeah, I'd go inside out, especially if they're going in the machine. Apart from the marks, you don't want to miss out on the fun of turning them right way round again.

[Max Power]

When you soak inb the tub, no need to turn them insideout. I would not add detergent nor anything else. They won't loose much Indigo just from lying in the water, maybe a bit excess Indigo will bleed off, but that's no big deal.

True. In fact, my 666UHR looked no different after a 30deg wash in the machine.  Don't put them in with your white shirts, though.

Has anyone done the initial wash for unsanforized/loomstate denim in a machine? Is there an disadvantage to doing that?

Seems that most reports I've read have been of people soaking them in a bathtub.

[el padre]

I did that with my 666uhr. Worked out fine. No spin though.
