      Excellent idea Brown, the only problem area is the waistband so I'll do what you suggest. There's still a lot
      of starch in the fabric too so once that's washed out I'm sure they'll be much softer and easier to stretch.
      Thanks for the great tip! 🙂

                  imo,  Texas cotton come loaded with so much starch cuz  of the short fibers, too.

                          No problem Brown, it's happened on here before! 😉 Joan is a friend of mine, we go way back to the 70's. 😉
                          Still need to find something to stick in the waistband of my 510's, looked around the house and all I have is
                          plastic hangers…Will try to find a piece of wood or something stronger this weekend.

                                  thx you two. well I own them since late December. Maybe 5 months of straight wear.

                                  @BH: I hope all is welkl with you! 🙂

                                  @Rafa: Fit and fade-wise I could totally see the 710 on you! But I guess you have already something different in mind, eh? 😉

                                      The 710 comes in 19oz denim. The used cotton is a blend of American cotton, not especially Texas Cotton like they use on the 15oz denim.

                                      Damn. But you'll make it 🙂

                                        I've been thinking about a pair of 710's for a while now, just might pull the trigger since I love the cut.
                                        Yeah, it's been a tough 3 weeks T, especially here at work…Oh yeah, I'll get through it! 😉
