@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....

@goosehd thanks for the input man.

Soaked them for an hour, hung them to dry overnight, put them on damp, and took the dogs for a 2.5 mile walk. I think they came out pretty darn good.

Looks perfect!

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, -
Hi guys!
On pictures jeans have more intense blue color.
Is there a difference with a normal pair, or it is just on pictures? -
@JeansCat I believe what you are seeing is primarily the pictures. The denim will look different depending on the light, camera being used, number of washes, what you're wearing it with, etc., and will change over the course of a day depending on those factors.
-
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.

Woah, this is extremely stiff after the initial soak and wash.
That's surely gonna hurt in the morning...

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 -
will it come back in size 28? I'm tempted to get a 29 but if there's hope of a refill I'll wait! Thank you dear, good evening everyone
