I wear 36 in the 888 and have the 805s in 36 as well and I like the fit, which is a bit loose.

RE: How many jeans/ pants in your rotation??
For those of you who live in the warmer/muggier places in the world (ie. southern USA), what jeans do you like for the summer months? Does not have to be IH.

RE: Repairs & Modifications
I snagged one of my flannel shirts the other day and pulled some of the threading out and I'm wondering if I can I possibly tease it back into the shirt or if I should just send it in for repair.
Thoughts?

RE: IHSH-332-SAX - Ultra Heavy Flannel Anniversary Check Western Shirt - Sax
Should be able to shrink a 1/2 size with a hot wash according to the website… I'm smack in the middle, I normally go XXXL.
IH has sent this to many stockists it looks like so there are other XXXLs to be had.

RE: IH-555S-UHR - 21/23oz Ultra Heavy Raw Selvedge Denim Super Slim Cut Jeans
@Visceral The shrink that you get out of the UHR's will stretch back out in the waist…the length will not (nor will the thighs/calves - unless they are under constant tension).
How does the rest of the jean fit? Loose, Tight, Perfect?
I'd say there's a good bit of room everywhere in the top block (most of all the waist) but the legs fit well from the thigh down definitely enough room for some shrink but not too much that its baggy.
I think you should seriously consider going down a size. After I shrank my 888uhr it was a real motherfucker to get them buttoned up but after a not very long break in period they are quite comfortable because they stretched out to a little beyond where I started per-soak.

RE: IH-888S-UHR - 21/23oz Ultra Heavy Raw Selvedge Denim High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans
I've been wearing these for two weeks now and I'm really liking them. I already have a pair of 888XHS so I was hesitant to buy these but my curiosity got the best of me so I went ahead and pulled the trigger. I may end up liking these more than XHS… but we'll see. It looks like the fades are gonna come fast, I even got some marks from the washing machine after the initial soak.
Fit: My advice is order true to size and trust that you'll stretch them back out post shrinkage.

RE: Ultra Heavy Raw (UHR), AKA 21/23oz Denim
I know it's been mentioned that there's no current plan for 1955-UHR but since UHR is now in continuous production I'm still hoping one day y'all will make them again. I'll just have to stick with the 888 for now.
