[Beatle]

how long have you had them ? looks like they are fading fast..

[pillowPANTS]

Thx kit!!
Picked them up on Aug. 22nd. Been wearing them pretty steady since the first week of sept Beats

[Beatle]

awesome !

So, how is the waist stretching for you guys and girls who wear these?
I can't decide between sizes… :p

[Beatle]

stretches plenty….I would go for the smaller size if in between

[kit99bar]

Agreed.  I was between 31 and 32 and Beatle told me to go with 31.  At first I thought I had sized wrong but after a few weeks I found out to not doubt the master
31 is perfect now.

@pillowPANTS:

[moykky]

^ I see the roughness of that 18oz denim now.

Thanks for the stretching info!

[pillowPANTS]

Thx for the pic G. OD may be too black looking for me. Love the look of black denim but feel it looks funny on me

Waist stretched a ton. 37 presoak, 36.2 postsoak(warm water not hot). Stretched to 38 in the first day or so. Now at 39 and holding strong

My Buster RAWs arrived today, thanks Giles and Paula!

These mf's are stifffff….. Do they shrink to or from 18oz?

I did a conservative hot soak and skipped the washing machine. Instead I did wash and rinse them by hand. I didn't want to put them in the washing machine because I didn't know what will happen to the machine -let alone the pants! I have a feeling they will take a good long time to get dry.

[Giles]

18oz is pre-shrink, so about 19-19.5 post shrink…

[Beatle]

looking forward to a fit pic ***

+1

they'll probably dry quicker than you expect and it's good to wear them when they're slightly damp to help set the creases

[Megatron1505]

First Busters wash today after two months continuos wear. Due to being stuck in a hot factory through the hottest part of summer, they started to smell a little 

[Beatle]

lol, so yes, you washed them - no biggie …but hey , make sure to post some pics..

[Megatron1505]

Currently in the washer, pics will be posted when they're dry Beats…..I always get nervous when washing my jeans for some reason 

[Beatle]

relax..it will be good
