      As you can see, we are out of the danger zone (our place is marked as "Freak Andò"), so we are safe and unharmed.

      Papsi's parents are inside the damaged area (city called Cento, marked as "Papsi"). Their house was badly damaged, but now they are safe and sound.

      In any case (to stay in topic), I prepared some clothes for a quick escape, and my 666-XHS are at the top of the stack! 😉

      I try to take it easy, but the last 10 days were very very stressful. Tonight I expect more aftershocks.

          Thought I took before pics, can't find them though…

          One hole was about golf ball sized, the other just a bit smaller.  Dropped them off at Self Edge NY and 5 days later....

          The contrast in color is exaggerated in the pics…with a weeks wear I doubt you'll be able to see the repair.

          Pretty thrilled to say the least...

                      they only mention for raw denim. 666-xhs aren't raw right? so i guess they can be worn straight away as mentioned by hajduk?

                      anyway im just asking cos mine is still as stiff as feck after wearing around 10 times. 😞

                        It does not just mention raw denim, see after Raw Denim paragraph:

                        "Regular and Pre-Soaked Raw Denim (does not need soaking before wearing)"

                            Wore 'm for 6 months straight away. Will now soak 'm every 2-3 months or so. No science behind, although I would recommend a soak after a month or so to soften them up a bit, especially if you cuff (to avoid bad hem fraying).

                                      had them for 4 wks. I need to get these hemmed a couple inches shorter. I live in Minneapolis, USA. Feeling like it is worth sending them out to get proper chain stitched… Any suggestions, recommendations?

                                      Thanks

                                        Get them chainstiched. They're worth it. Edit: Just Re-read your post; http://www.selfedge.com/ would be my first idea in the US.

                                        First crotch fix.

                                          If SE doesn't do mail in chain stitching, you can try Tate + Yoko in Montreal or Dutil in Toronto.
