IH-634S-RAW - 21/23 ounce raw straight cut

[dave]

The SR didn't hardly shrink at all in the inseam, but the leg did twist like crazy.

Giles, I didn't get the order link, but I was on the preorder list.  Can you send ti to me?    I really need a 31

[dave]

nevermind, I guessed it

Giles, to err on the side of caution shouldn't the site list that they shrink 2 inches?!
I'm asking because I am figuring out hemming right now.

@Giles:

Well, I only got 1" in the inseam out of all 3 pairs of 634SR I tested and only an inch out of the test pair of 634S-RAW I soaked.  I think some people managed t get 1.5 and even 2 inches, but my view is far better to err on the side of caution and have the slightly to long. After all you can always get them shortened further, but you can't put back on what's been taken off…..

G, possible for thigh and hem to shrink 1 inch?

Don't take my advice (don't want to be held responsible ), just observation, but I thought I was crazy when I only noticed about an inch of shrink until Giles just posted that he got the same results.  I bought the Japan length (35) and after plenty of soaks and washes, they're still around 34 or 35.  I expected them to be shorter.

always great to be wrong on these sorts of matters, when you have the inventory on hand to fill the demand.  plus jaco is my dude, so i had to contribute an uneducated guess 

are those your refurbished russies your wearing in the fit pic or are those your redwings?

[Blackheart]

My guess is 47 pair, waiting for the e-mail from G now…

[kit99bar]

a super hot soak shrank my 31 SRs to 28.  I had to stretch it back while wet to 31!
The inseam is also 34 but I don't know what they started at.

[Blackheart]

Ordered!!!

[Shamal]

Done!
Thank you very much,Sir

By the end of tomorrow Giles will be contacted by an investor inquiring about how to best use the funds in his paypal account!

looks like russell`s to me…

so my guess with 23 is still in the race (eventually!)...but if 2times my guess is right at the end, i`d be pretty happy for you guys!...
