IH-634S-UHR - 21/23oz Raw Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

@Kasi
ok, but did it stretch more with wear? more than the original measurements? -
I've tried to get an answer to this question like 20x, @Daniel San — I guess the answer must not be out there, man!
Though this is pure conjecture, I'd imagine that given stress on the waist, they'd stretch out a little more than tag size. People always said XHS stretched back to tag size; mine stretched about a half inch past that. Anyway, I'm hoping I nailed it with the UHR!
-
if the UHR will do so too I‘am fine
no more expensive tryouts, hate that ! -
They can stretch one Inches more.. with some power

my IHxB01UHR tag 40 had a 41” waist when received. IIRC these were my 2nd pr of IHs (maybe 3rd) which would date them circa 2014 or 2016. i didn't wash or soak them as recommended until they REAKED and have since washed them (hot soak with Woolite dark in tub) and spray rinse while hanging then hang dry numerous times. just measured them for actual and stretch has been minimal. see pic of measurement. the UHR IMHO is the most unforgiving from a stretch perspective and i would recommend anyone order actual size vs sizing down to get a right fit.
fun fact: these still ‘pop’ when i walk.
. and are way too big for me now after losing 90 ish lbs.

i gotta be that guy and ask:
I was trying on a old pair of 634's in a 35 and i felt the legs were much tighter/slimmer than my 888 25oz 36's. As in quite a bit noticeable, whereas i would almost describe my 888's as baggy below the knees, the 634's felt more trimmed. Anyone else have this experience?
My problem is I enjoy the roominess of the 888 upper block but really which the legs and below the knee were trimmer. I think wearing the bibs ruined me. And now I wanna grab a UHR pair before the go OOS. The 634's were a bit more restrictive in the thighs but the overall fit "fit" me better (at least in my head in the mirror.)
any advice other than buying all the UHR pairs

@kasi apologies if you’d already stated that you had old uhr.
-
@mikebarhoot dig that boro repair!
-
I canceled my order .
Too afraid to end up with a too tight waist….
Maybe one of the other cuts will work better.... -
I think I will press go on these today
-
I'm waiting for the 666 cut.
-
Ordered!
-
@Dmart
yes, but I discussed it a lot with the guys at GosVegas and maybe it will not work. so I decided to cancel. -
Mine arrived just now! F'n gnarly as all hell, as expected — pretty sure I injured myself buttoning the fly. In other words, excellent.
Feels like 33 was pretty perfect for me. They'll be tight after shrinking, but seeing that they should stretch back to current state in the waist, should be great. Gonna soak em tomorrow.
-
@popvulture Just remember, you need the agitation too to get the shrinkage. Soaking alone won't accomplish what you need to do…
