    @Beatle:

    I´ve used the dryer on several jeans , yes , khaki, that will def. give you about 3% more overall shrinkage

    Thanks Beatle…I'll soak them and break them in for a while. If I feel they are stretching too much them I'll give them the dryer....
    I sized down from 36 in the TW 14oz to 34. Looks like it should fit fine. I have size 36 634s and they are quite big after stretching out. The TW fit is da bomb!!

      For washing and soaking etc, I think it is best to go with Beatle's sage advice of just wearing your jeans and doing what you feel is normal rather than comparing with what everyone else does.  If you want to wash them, wash them.  If you don't, don't.  It is as simple as that.

      Out with the new! In with the old!

          @thomasnunnally- yes i agree with you, i was just simply asking what everyone does… i wish they'd have a 18oz version of 301 but i love the details of the BB. like the hidden knife pocket for example.

                  looking at his user name we could assume he's 16 🙂

                              I did. In fact, I was the smallest kid in my class until I was 15, then something happened… More important: you will not only grow vertically - so I hope you got some extra space in the waist.

                              @elclintor:

                              > I don't care what people say.. The Max Power way is the right way…

                                        mine came today, got a size smaller (34) than my 634S, which have stretched a ton, they're now in the bath  😎

                                        thanks P & G, excellent service 🙂 😉 🙂
