[cm1]

Carol Vorderman??  Thanks for your help.  We got there in the end!!

[Beatle]

I love it when wearing a pair of jeans becomes scientific…

[Giles]

I dont

[kit99bar]

I have pre and post soak measurements a page back or so!  You can get a good guess from that

[Beatle]

god, guys, will shrink apprx 2%..what´s so hard to understand

[kit99bar]

Mine shrank from 8.25 to 7.9 and the raw of a 34 is 9.1->  9.1 X 7.9 / 8.25 = 8.7 inches for a 34 after soak.

Note: I don't think mine has fully shrunk (like after a hot wash) so you can probably get a bit smaller.  like 8.5 - 8.6

What about the inseam?

[Beatle]

inseam will shrink over course of life time..probs 1.5 inches with hot soak

I really want some 18oz IH denim, and the knee and hem are perfect on these, but my stupid thighs are too big.

No , and I am away until Tuesday.  I'll take a photo when I get back, but I suspect it will look like a mass of very dark blue.

Like G said, I don't think you will get much from comparing the 3.  The 21oz BB is going to be the same color as your raws, the xhs will be a tad darker and the OD is black, very black.

I love the absolute insanity that takes place on this board sometimes although I am not sure if it makes me feel crazier when I see other people do it or not as crazy because I'm not the only one…

Ok G thanks. Im just hoping that one will be different enough that i can wear both. If they look too similar i will end up favoring one pair. Wouldnt feel right neglecting a pair lol

[pillowPANTS]

Kit. I will try for some today. "try"

The raw and XHS denim are very different, but I think they're close to the same hue.  The XHS is darker and very smooth while the raw is somewhat lighter and slubby.  It's harder to tell because I've washed the raw denim a couple of times.

No idea about the OD BB since it uses a different base denim, but the OD 666 is much darker and bluer than the other two.  I think they would all compliment each other and not look overly similar.

Couple fit pics finally

[kit99bar]
