but as long as theyre not falling down and the fit elsewhere is fine, is it really a problem? most of my jeans are a little loose in the waist. a hot wash usually tightens things up though; the added agitation makes em shrink more than just a soak.
did a hot wash and hang dry and they fit perfectly. Thanks so much for the recommendation.

They do stay up, just sit a lower than I'd like. When I belt them, I can feel the waistband bunch up a little in the back.
I'll give that a shot this weekend and let you know what happens!
I recently bought a pair of IH-666S from Self Edge online. I got the size 38 as I asked around regarding my measurements and this size was supposed to be ideal. After two 60 minute hot water soaks, they're still a little roomy. When measured across the waist, as shown on this forum, there's about a half inch more than I need.
Any recommendations on what to do to make them fit better? Taloring? A hotter hot soak? I'd rather not sell them if they can be saved. They're such beautiful jeans.
I'm currently in Tucson, AZ, but I'm moving to Albuquerque, NM for medical school this July.
