What about the non contest patch 21/23 jeans? Is your size available there?

Checking now.

Edit: The guy just called me back and said he would comp me a pair and LUCKILY there are some 36s still available in the 21/23 UHR. He's talking to his connect at Mildblend now and I just hope that I can get them with the same smaller waist 36 measurements that IH was able to find for me.

I don’t think those could possibly fit you any better? Really glad to see you back in the saddle.

What a perfect fit, @zatenm! I hope the taper on mine is that strong!

One pair of my largest needle-nosed pliers and two deeply bruised thumbs later, I finally got all five buttons done up. So glad I didn’t try to go with a large 38 over this slightly small 40. I had my doubts about the rise and thighs but everything seems great so far.  Looking forward to seeing them in the daylight tomorrow.

Jordan, if you buy them from us, we can swap the patch to the NT and hem them here for you.

We can always attach an NT patch to a pair of UHR's if you like.

I’m Really sorry to hear that. If at all possible you should have him buy you the comped pair from IH UK. That way you can have the patch swapped and get the best hemming job taboot.

@Alex @Giles @Matty123 He owns a supply store here and said that he’ll swap the patches for me (thankfully). He feels horrible and was more than accommodating.

Thank you @Jett129 . Feels great to be back. I've been rocking a pair of LVC 501xx for the last 9 mo and while enjoyable, it is simply not the same.

Thanks @Jordanxbuffer ! It's a very flattering cut, no doubt. I hope you get the fit you're looking for.. Please post some pics when you can

First day wearing the IH-888-NT.  Inseam shrunk two inches and the waist shrunk one inch with a 3 hour cold soak, and two hot washes (no spin).  Patch was treated with Renaissance wax (front and back) pre soak and it still looks brand new.

^ good stuff! Thanks for the info too. I may yet fold and get me a pair…

Care to elaborate on the wax brand? I googled renaissance wax and got results for a
Museum Quality metal wax… thanks
