IH-634S-UHR - 21/23oz Raw Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
I'm a nut and always sit in a hot tub (not a hottub) for 22 mins.or more, moving my legs a bunch yet not bend the knees too much, with all my other brands non-washed, loomstate, shrink to fit denim.
Then, a slight towel dry whilst wearing them, over to the computer to do some work, seated, knees only slightly bent, then go for a walk, wear them all day until they are dried /molded on me ! Now that I've got a bike Usually go for a ride too, dries them nicely.
I pay attention to the pre-soak measurements as this seems what they will stretch back out to.
This crazy way has given me the best fits for sure !!
For what it's worth -
Fellows. Do those have contrast arcuates or tonal?

question for the guys who had UHR before
️
The waist will stretch back to the pre soak/wash size, ok …but will it stretch even more ?
Think I need a little more than 1 cm than pre soak/wash measurement in the end , realistic? -
@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.
