^ did I call it?! Or did I call it??!!

You really did. Got any tips on horses?

I can handicap with the best of ‘em.

I got my first Harley after hitting a Pick-4 for 15k at Belmont Park on Belmont Stakes day,in 2004. They even wrote about my story in the Harley Enthusiast magazine. At one point I was moving towards becoming a professional horse player. It’s incredibly hard,and time consuming.These days I bet 4 races a year.

That’s awesome man. I abstain now. I work too hard for cash to
Gamble it

Thinking about getting one of these, especially as this will be the last chance to grab the UHR denim.
However, I have some concerns regarding sizing.
I have a 777S-21blk size 33 which fits quite nice, even though the topblock could be just a little bit smaller. I haven't worn them often yet, so there is just a little to no stretch.
No I'm not sure whether to go for a 32 or even 31 with the UHR. I'm afraid the 32 will be to big after stretching back post soak and the 31 maybe to small.
What do you guys think or recommend?

[neph93]

@don_pipone are those 777-21blk measurements from the website or are they your actual pair? If the former I'd measure your actual pair and then compare.

Looking at the UHR measurements, you'd be best off asking the crew at IHUK if the can find a bigger W31 or a smaller W32.

[don_pipone]

Thank you @neph93
Those are the measurements from the website. Didn't think about measuring my actual pair, which I did now.
I will contact the IHUK crew through the website to find the right pair.

[don_pipone]

Ordered! I decided to go for a pair of W31. Thanks to Adam for his help and all efforts.
Now the painful waiting for the deliveryman begins.

[neph93]

Looking forward to seeing how it goes @don_pipone

[don_pipone]

Just received my pair at work. Couldn‘t wait until I get home.
I‘m glad I sized down on these. After soak and wash they will be perfect!
But damn that denim is stiff! When I got my first pair of 21oz I had trouble button the top button, but this UHR is a bitch! [emoji28]

Fit Looks good. but I agree, the UHR denim is a Monster.

The first run of the UHR felt even harder to tame than the latest iteration. And agreed: the fit is spot on!

@don_pipone those look perfect.  Fit should be great on those.  Looking good 

[don_pipone]

Thx!
They now hang to dry after soak and wash.
I‘ll come back with the post-wash measurements as soon they are dry.

[don_pipone]

Quick post soak/wash measurements update:

I gave them an 1 hour soak at about 45C and light machine wash at 30C with 500 spin cycle, then hung dry.

W: 33.2 -> 32.6
FR: 10.2 -> 9.8
RR: 14.5 -> 13.9
T: 12.2 -> 12.1
K: 8.2 -> 8.1
H: 7.2 -> 7.1
IS: 37.0 -> 35.8

I will bring them to Statement for hemming next week.

[don_pipone]

Soaked, washed, shrinked and hemmed.

They fit really nicely and don‘t feel as abrasive and stiff as they did pre-soak.

[manufc10]

Damn good fit @don_pipone

[Jett129]

Those do look really great on you. Looking forward to seeing them in a year from now.

[don_pipone]

Thank you guys!

@Jett129 Me too! I will keep you posted.

Below is pre and post for my pair. Tag 30's.

Soaked in tub for 20 mins in cold water. 60min wash @ 30c, minimal spin.

W: 32.2 -> 31.5
FR: 10.2 -> 9.8
RR: 14.5 -> 14.2
T: 11.2 -> 11.0
K: 8.0 -> 7.9

Probably going to give them one last hit at a slightly higher temperature before I hem them.
