@kelton nice post. I wear them raw as well. Wear them however you like and what feels good. That’s all that matters. I love the sheen as well. After all is said and done they are just a pair of jeans.

@kelton i hope it works out the way you hope it will! In the end we’re all lovers for this particular brand. Like i said before we all have our journey. I think it’s cool how the whole UHR process is taking place. With the soaking/washing mainly cause that’s how they are designed by the myth Haraki. I freaking love my UHR. Still don’t get the point but it’s your jawns so beat ‘m up the way you wanna beat ‘m up! Enjoy en have a wicked day

This may be a silly question but I dont recall what I've done on previous pairs I've owned....but after the initial hot soak do you let them drip dry completely before you do the next step of washing/agitating, or do you let them dry enough just to where they aren't dripping wet anymore and are still damp? Maybe it doesn't matter....

I am looking at a pair of these and have a sizing question. I am still a bit confused after reading through this thread.
My best fit is the 777S. I have a pair of Slubbys that fit nearly perfectly. They are a tag 36 with a 36.1 waist and 10.8 rise. I like the lower rise and the waist is snug, just right.The UHR in a tag 35 have a 36.5 waist pre-shrunk. This would fit well before shrinking.
The Tag 36 have a 37.7 waist pre-shrunk and would be big before shrinking.
I would soak these before wearing and expect a 1" shrink in waist.Some recommendations suggest that the initial dry fit should be good and that the shrinking and re-stretching will provide the best long term fit.
So, what to do.The tag 36 waist at 37.7 is too big pre-shrink.
The tag 35 waist at 35.6 is nearly perfect at pre-shrink.Could I anticipate stretch back on the tag 35 to get to a 36" waist?
Would I be better off to try and hot shrink the Tag 36 to get to a 36" waist?Appreciate your suggestions.
Thanks, -

I would just ask the shop if they have 36 pair with a waist close to 37.0 or just under. My 2 cents is better one inch too loose than one too tight. The waist will stretch back after shrink so i try to make sure the thigh measurements are good as well. Best to email the IH guys though.

I just realized that the above picture doesn't belong in this thread.
The label actually says 777-UHR, not 777S-UHR.
Thus I posted some pictures over here: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum//post/786164
