Ive got to say I pity anyone who sized down on these.  I went true to size[…]

Tag size 30, if I'm not mistaken, correct?

Not the waist, I know it will stretch… Just a little nervous about thigh, but I will not hot soak.  Should be ok!!??

The thighs are pretty generous on the 634s cut

What other IH jeans do you have?  I'd put the post soak thigh and knee on these somewhere between the 666XHS/BB SBG and 634SR

Yes sir, I can now officially button the top button, but they are yet to be very comfortable in the waist

cc, do you wear 30 in any other IH jeans?  thanks for the pics btw.  i like your fit, and they will stretch.

[corporalclegg]

Thanks man, I based my size off my 301s, which were a sz 30 and the world tour 634s which were a 31, so figured a 30 would give me the best fit.

so i'm happy with the fit now, however i feel that too much shrinkage occurred in the length.

g, you think they'll get longer as I wear them?

i thought jeans got shorter as they stacked, i just wanted a bit more cuff…

great denim and i'm getting some great creases in the front lower parts where most other denim just falls.

cheers, and yes, my thumb was numb for a day after wrestling the buttons in.

I have the same issue, I think the shrinkage of the length was also more than what I expected. Didn't expect that they will shrink about 2 inch.. Would prefer to have a bit more stacks..

I don't think it will get longer as u wear them Jesse.

[kit99bar]

Happy new years I'm drunk as hell

[mankarat]

once the creases set, you will get shorter inseam.. depends on how your wear and fit..

man, my rear rise for the jeans shrunk by 1.3 inches. 15.8 > 14.5 inches. feels really uncomfortable wearing it now lol.

[dave]

Mine felt like that at first too, but I suspect it was because I had to pull them up really high to be able to fasten the top button.  I'm happy to say that went away too.  That's the main reason I don't wear my strike golds more than once every month or two.

[Just_KC]

hopefully mine stretches back out eventually. only manage to get two buttons on so far. getting a blister on my thumb!

What u think about the fit guys?

I prefer it to be slimmer from knee down, but I guess I won't be able to get anymore shrinkage.

[Finn666]

^honestly…i think these could be your best fitting pair of jeans Ron...
these are looking perfect and you shouldn't worry about the "from knee down" part...straight cuts are the best for us bigger folks

And the new denim plus boots combo is the fecking shit! great...

[mankarat]

continue wear them until the jeans drape to your body shape.. you could get the best fitting on this type of denim. IMO, the fit and boots looks great Ron. Congrats bro..

[rocket]

great fit right there Ron…

@Katsushin:

Well,
Tagged 35 measured 35 raw and are now at 34 soaked…:(
Not sure what to do.  Very little (to no) hope of getting them buttoned all the way.
Wasn't able to grab a decent pic, but here's the best I could do for now...

damn, tried to stretch them by hand?
