They look great with the boots Ron!

[ronaldlsh]

Thanks Thomas! I do like the look of boots too!

It took all of my energy to button them up pre-soak and post-soak but after that it's now a piece of cake. When i got them first i was completely exhausted after the first buttoning attempt. Beads of sweat on my upper lip, flopped myself on the bean bag and almost cried.

Almost…

Perfect fit there ron.

[ronaldlsh]

Thanks Blackheart… 

[Blackheart]

Mine have really stretched, the waist it back to pre soak size and are a bit baggy on me now.
Anyone else have considerable stretch after the second soak?…

[kit99bar]

mine have stretched a lot too. I considered a 2nd soak but not really wanting to do it after 3 weeks of wear as the fit is not bad.  could be trimmer though

[Blackheart]

I'm going to do one more machine hot soak and see if that sets the denim shrink wise, my SR's
didn't stretch at all but this batch sure did. Still love them though, haven't been wearing any
other jeans but these.

Yeah, thinking of 3rd soak/wash in washing machine 60°C. Might as well toss in my SR's.

[Blackheart]

Yeah, I'm doing a 3rd hot wash on these. Hopefully that will tighten them up for good.

[injunjack]

lemme hear the results…

[Blackheart]

Of course, I'll post fit pics after the 3rd wash and hem…That part didn't shrink at all!
