Pre soak and pre wash I though it was doable to break it in without to much trouble, but post soak and post wash (40° C) it feels as stiff as cardboard or thin wood. This is going to get interesting. I think I'm a little afraid.
Haha yeah, the 21/23 hardcore after the first wash. And it don´t get better

My favorite denim with my new favorite cut. IH doesn't disappoint.

Post soak fit pics. The back shot and side shot where blurry and I have no time to redo them at the moment.
can do a single cuff now, instead of the pre soak double cuff. After another wash or two they will go off to heming.

That's a great fit.. But it will time to break in [emoji6]

UHR denim is by far my favorite. As of right now, the IHXBO1XUHR, and the 1955UHR, are my favorite jeans. Not in that particular order. I haven't done a soak on them, just regular wash, low spin, minimal shrinkage. My biggest problem is usually doing or undoing the buttons. Now I gently use needle nose pliers.

Looking good, Cole! And thanks for the measurements ;)!
-
looks good. Great pic of you and your daughter!
-
Great fit, they will surely turn out great.
-
Should have washed it inside out, but it was so driping wet and stiff that I gave up. Hope it will even out while fading.

Managed to pick up one of these with the WDC tag in the IH Sale
The cloth and cut are both absolutely amazing! Followed the instructions and cold soaked and washed these once. Got very little shrinkage. Did another hot soak with practically no shrinkage.
I don't really need them any smaller, but am concerned about the length as they are now double cuffed, which looks somewhat odd.
From experience, can anyone tell me if these will still shrink after 2 soaks and one wash, as I am considering to have them hemmed. Would now be ok, or should I wait for another wash or two?
Cheers

^ Yes - Hot Soak + Hot Wash again - it took me 3 washed to finally get my 666-UHR to shrink down, but when they did, the waist and length shrunk up a lot.

I second what neph and Apfaff said. If you're unsure about any shrinkage left, just give them another hot soak. You can add a wash after that if you'd like to. BTW the double cuff looks pretty nice ;).
