      Some consider it cheating, but GeeZeeEm these are your jeans and who the feck has the right to tel you what to do with them.  Personally I can't be bothered and I suspect the cowboys and workers of old didn't bother either…

          And another thing DD….I read in one of your other posts that you were hoping to get the lower legs a bit slimmer. It's not gonna happen with these - they hardly shrink at all with soaking (indeed there is no point in an initial soak).

          Just my opinions, and what I've noticed with heavy Denim.

          As these are sanforized, I still would recommend proper warm/hot soak with some agitation, or detergent free spin in washer (jeans turned inside out) just to get rid of the exess starch there is in the jeans. And very importantly also to soften the fabric a bit, so that it doesn't create "hard" bends or creases and start to fray prematurely.  (especially the cuffs, I beleive the other critical place is crotch)

          I would also do a second warm/ hot soak spin in machine after let's say 2 weeks from the first. Same reasons as above.

          When turned inside out, they won't loose too much indigo anyway.

          Best way to set combs whiskers etc is to start wearing them after soak while they are still damp.

              If cowboys had worn these the horse would be extinct by now.

                    As for the jeans I slept in them and when i woke up it felt like i pissed the bed because they were soaked from how bad i sweat.  They also feel like they molded to my skin because of it.  Pretty damn cool

                            If you want to maintain an acceptable odor with your jeans, don´t try to sweat soak them every night.

                            why so serious?

                                    Tommy: this isn't about sizing down… I had bruises on my hips (visible fucking wounds) just because of the initial stifness of the 25 oz fabric... Mind you, I did not size down - in fact: the waist measured 33" (tagged 32)...  😃

                                      Yeah, mine are 34 and came to me w/ a larger waist.  The hip area was super tight but I managed by doing lots of sitting… on barstools.

                                        Yea i didnt size down at all went with the 33's but YES ur hips feel like they've been kicked by a horse.  I started out by wearing a belt because they fit so damn perfect on the waist and didnt want any stretch there at all.  I have never owned a pair of jeans that actually didnt have that lil space between the back of my waist and the jean. 666XHS 25oz is heaven and hell all in one
