3 inches? Wow! That’s quite a lot!
What is the original waist size (tag)?

[Kathrynnaomi]

They are a tag 35 and now they measure 38.5!

Yes I was very careful to keep a close eye on this. I think the UHR is pretty indestructible though!

Two months in and two soaks. Very happy with the lovely blue shades coming through.

So basically a owned these a year, almost to the day. Although not anywhere near that for wear. Had some 25oz IB and some 14oz too. If I had to guess id say almost 150-200 days?

They had 1 machine wash and 2 soaks. With the last soak being yesterday morning.

Coming along very nice[emoji41]

Looking great!

Took this pic for Insta this morning. The lighting was perfect to capture the fading properly. Currently 125 days of wear in this pair.

Can‘t say it too often. The UHR is my favourite denim!

I’m loving my IH-888-UHR as the cold draws in. I mentioned this somwhere else the other day but the XHS gets deserved props for getting so soft, but the UHR does too.

[don_pipone]

Unfortunately I have never had a pair XHS but I will definitely get one someday. But first I need to wear the hell out of these.

I'm with you @don_pipone !  Though I like the 18-fond of the 14-  ::)

@neph93  the softness of broken in UHR is wonderful- I've only recently gotten into IH sanforized because I like the raw so much- the 18 raw too

[don_pipone]

150 days and counting

IH 777 UHR Day 200

[profdbrk]

I'm late the party, as usual.

I read this whole thread before I scored the last pair at @canoeclub this morning.  It's taken me two years now to understand how IH works for me.  But when you think that 21oz denim is just normal and that 14oz is summer jeans–- compared to the other lighter weights.  I'm up for the UHR ritual.  777 works great for me.

[neph93]

Congratulations. Incredible denim. Wore my 888-UHR all weekend. You’ll love it for your grim winters.

Loom State is just different in the best sort of way.  Sanforization usurps an irreplaceable part of the denim’s soul.  Here’s to the return of UHR someday.

250 days
Wash no. 4 will be tomorrow
