IH-666-UHR - Ultra Heavy - Devil's Fit (Slim Cut)
-
They're looking dope but it also looks like they shrank a good amount, didn't they?
-
Very impressive evo for 5-6 months! They look close to mine and I've been wearing them for double that time (albeit not every day) [emoji1]
Can't wait to see how yours will look like when they reach a year! I love this denim [emoji108] -
Those are lookin amazing! Nice work!

Pullin the trigger on a pr.

What a sweet deal on an kickass denim!

And bought. I was struggling with willpower as it was. It took a bit not to pick up the 666SII, too.

Can't imagine either of you will regret it.

Got a pair too - sized up one and looking forward to see the fit.

And pre-soak, mine are a bit tight from mid-thigh to above the knee. I'm sure I'd be safe to assume they'll shrink, so back they'll go.
Pretty bummed, too.

The UHR denim will only shrink as much as you want it to. It took me 3 soaks/washes to get it to really shrink. On top of that, the denim is very soft and stretches easily, once again, if you want it to.
Post a pic, and we would be happy to share our thoughts! Just an FYI, mine didn't shrink even .18 in the thigh or knee although I killed them to shrink 2.5 in waist.

This is good info. The top block is pretty comfy. Not where my 666 XHS are, but these are brand new. The XHS stretched a bit. I was surprised.

Just so you can see, here is the progress my size 38 made.
First measures are raw, then the standard 2 hour cold soak and cold wash no spin - then I went warm soak warm wash no spin and then finally hot soak + hot wash and forgot to take them out before he spin haha - no harm no foul.

Great overview, Appfaff.
I'm about to soak mine, and I want as much of the shrinkage gone before I start wearing, so I think I should do a cold soak and then a hotter wash. The guidelines recommend a cold soak followed by a wash no hotter than 30 degrees celsius, but I guess that won't get rid of all the shrinkage - so I was planning on a 40 or 50 degrees wash. I was just wondering why it is recommended not to wash the UHR hotter than 30 degrees?
-
….one reason is that leather patches don't like hot washes!
-
That's right, but I never had a problem with Iron Hearts leather patches after 40 or 50 degree washes, so was just wondering if there were other reasons.
