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

After a couple days of wear, I feel my thigh-to-butt area a bit baggy, and would love it to be a bit snugger, I was thinking of doing a hot soak from waist to just above the knee, I got input from my brotha Peterock….any others would like to chime in if this would help??

Thanks,

Cris.

I highly recommend another hot soak for you Cris. Hell, even a hot wash if you're not picky about that kinda stuff. They should tighten up nicely and give you a better fit.

Cris, throw them in the washing machine in hot water, I did this and it snugged up the thigh
and butt area. Hang them to dry in a warm place. They will be snug at first but will stretch
to fit you after a couple days.

^Thanks you two….and I'm assuming from the knee down it will shrink as well, I got them tapered-in, so with the hot wash, I would imagine they would get skinnier, which I want to avoid.

Try another hot soak then in the top block area, the second wash did wonders for me, hope
it works for you too.

Thanks again BH….hot-soakin when I get off of work.

X-post from RAW WAR thread..

Went to a resort in Sentosa island, and grabbed the chance to document the progress of my IH634S-RAW.

Approximately 1 month of everyday wear.
1 initial soak.
0 wash.

Photos are a little overexposed due to the direct sunlight. I lowered the exposure using Aperture, but I want to keep post-processing as minimal as possible.

The colours here are probably to the closest to the real thing.

As usual, pretty worried about crotch blow out..

I did a top-block-hot-ass soak on Friday for about 30 min, drip-dried over the weekend and wearing today, if anything, a little shrinking was done, but not enough….so I'll probably wear for a bit and throw in the washer next time.

Washer really works Cris, I'll be doing a 3rd machine wash on mine this week to tighten them
up some more.
