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?

Well how many buttons can you button up kat?
I could button 2 buttons after ~25minutes after that I still couldn't do the top 2 buttons so I figured a method by using a shoelace,tied around the top button,following by the 2nd one and then went into the buttonholes…pulled everything thight and after another 20minutes of wear I was able to button all 4 buttons...maybe you try that as well

corporalclegg, would you mind doing me a favour and posting up some post-soak measurements and the duration of wear to date? I want to know what kind of work I'm in for in a size 30. Also, I know you've worn 301s in size 30 and that you bought the size 29 SGs off me; how were the fits in those for you? I'm trying to gauge if we're the same size or if you're a bit smaller…

Damn, we're all going to look like hippies with that calf flare.
haha
mine going in for a superhotsoak (from knee down) in a few minutes…trying to shrink down the inseam length + the hem measurements a bit more...then hotdrying with the hairdryer!
will post measurements in the morning! -
Most of that will go away as the denim loosens up. They don't drape well…

There's alot of talk about how much these shrink up after a hot soak.
If I normally wear a 33 in all IH and TW denim, could a 34 work for these?
Also - are people getting alot of inseam shrinking? I am 6'1'' and need the length for stacks,
They look kick ass… love to destroy these..
Thanks

i´d say it´s all about the fit you´re after…
33 would be a good call but 34 will also works...going to be a bit more relaxed i´d say though!
i`m 5'11" and i rock these with a small double cuff so i think the inseam should be good for you as well... -
just oiled the leather patch on my pair…
and since this is the actual jeans thread i thought i should share these pics here as well…

wood measured to my waistsize…
Here are my measurements…
The presoak ones are almost the same as the sizingchart on the webpage is saying and are more accurate as the postsoak ones since I had to wear'em after the soak to stretch these out and since 23oz isn't nice to fuck with
I'd guess you can take about 3cm from the waist-, 0.5cm from the thigh- and 0.1cm from the kneemeasurements (postsoak!) to know how these cane out of the tub, unworn!
And add 1-2 or a bit more centimeter to the inseam length (cuz of the combs and all that!)… -
Thanks guys…
My 634XHS is a 33 and fits perfectly... definitely like a normal/true waist fit but NOT too tight... and definitely need the total length.
I might pull the trigger on these. Just don't want to have them stretch out too much be ass-saggin' jeans.
According to everything I've read you can expect two inches of shrink in the waist with reasonably easy stretch back to pre-soak state–after roughly a day of wear-- as well as an inch in the thigh and rise and half an inch in the knee and hem.

If I've noticed anything about the waist size on these compared to other IH, and as I've seen Giles post, I'm a 31 in everything IH (except the 666SOD which was a 32).
TWR01 -30 (should have gotten 31)
666-XHS -31
666S -31
666Sod -32
IHxB01sbg -31
634SR -31
634S-RAW -31
