IH-888-NT - 21/23oz indigo Selvedge DWC Jeans
-
So true ^^^^
-
I wore UHR denim in Phoenix last year during the holidays for a couple of weeks and didn't have an issue!
-
Ok I like this…now I'm being talked backed in to it. The enabling is getting stronger.
-
After yesterday's mishap I had to wash the NT samples again, and man did it get all the shrink out. Learning the lesson from my last UHR jeans I put them on wet, well damp, to stretch them out a bit in waist, but it was still a wrestling match to get them on.
I found last time with UHR Denim, if you have a really tough struggle to get them on after washing then your fit should be both comfortable and solid when you've worn them a few times.

Proper fit pics of the 888-NT.

So does the UHR ever soften up? Does it ever get 634s soft? I know
It's not breathable. -
Yes it definitely softens, my old UHR Busters are like sweat pants.
-
Great fit pic Mega. These are going to be killer.

Cheers @summ3rhays , they came out exactly as we wanted.
@Dion , my last UHR's are super soft after a couple of years….took a while though.

I don't know why I keep asking questions. I'm ordering them regardless. They could feel
Like 60 grit for the duration and I'd still sign on. I'm a big fan of octopus -
@Megatron1505 Are you seeing similarities between this pair of UHR jeans and your last pair. Breaking in the same, wear the same, etc. Does anything stand out on this pair?
-
@jvicente86 . I'll measure them tomorrow dude, it's late and I'm drinking beer
@goosehd , I've only had a couple of wears out of them, but I can tell you a couple of things. The UHR is my favourite denim ever, and this UHR is the same as my last pair which is awesome, I would imagine they will break in and wear the same. What stands out on this pair is the cut, which is just perfect.

I just purchased the IH-888-NT deposit in size 34. Looking forward to this UHR denim in this new cut.
Now I'm wondering if I shoud get the 888S when they're released in August +/-… ???

@jvicente86 , apologies for the late reply. After two full on machine washes the thigh measures 13.8", measured the Iron Heart way.
-
^promising results for getting my bulky thighs in a 34, maybe even a 33.

I haven't committed yet because I actually have a pair of UHR on the go and no 21oz in rotation. But getting both is horribly tempting… ::)

Yes
@Giles I'm tempted to use the free hemming service, but with raw denim there's always a little bit of a gamble getting them hemmed before shrinking. It seems there's approximately 2" +/- in shrink in length in the UHR, so if I want an inseam length of 33", I should get them hemmed to 35". Maybe 35.5", to err on the longer side, rather than shorter?
Will there be any special bobbin thread color for the hem? Thanks. mpp
