Quick update. Got the 32's and fit in the top block is much better. The legs are quite skinny but should lead to some killer fades once broken in. Thanks all for the help.

Thanks all. I think considering the feedback here and looking through the other UHR threads for the other cuts I think I'm going to exchange for the 32. After trying them on again this evening they are pretty baggy in the crotch and hips as well as the waist. Cheers.

@goosehd:

@Visceral The shrink that you get out of the UHR's will stretch back out in the waist…the length will not (nor will the thighs/calves - unless they are under constant tension).

How does the rest of the jean fit?  Loose, Tight, Perfect?

I'd say there's a good bit of room everywhere in the top block (most of all the waist) but the legs fit well from the thigh down definitely enough room for some shrink but not too much that its baggy.

So I received a pair of these today in tag size 33 and the waist fits loose before soaking. Based upon the measurements I've taken vs my well worn pair of 21oz 634s I think the waist will be perfect after losing about 1" from a hot soak and wash.

The question is, if the waist fits perfectly after soaking/washing will it stretch out to being too big again even if not under much tension? If so I might need to return and grab a size 32 which is my usual tag. I sized up hoping for an easier break-in period figuring they wouldn't stretch much.

Thank you! @chiverus

Exactly the conclusion I came to about six or seven years ago, haven’t looked back.

Welcome to the forum, they are some great pieces you’ve snagged. Jacket next? [emoji6]

I've had my eye on the 526L for awhile. Some awesome fades in that thread.. Once the wallet recovers perhaps 

Been lurking on this forum for some time now and thought it a good opportunity to finally introduce myself.

Picked up my first IH item (634s) last October and it was a game changer for me. Since then and with the help of research done here I've managed to pick up 2 UHF's, 555xhsib, and 2 ihsh-235's (black and olive).

Love the the brand and the culture here and really don't see myself wearing any other denim. Look forward to picking up more pieces in the future!

Any update on the search for an alternative denim? Dying to recreate the look of the heading pic on the CPO section of the website!

Any chance of a restock?
