      if you´re really are that concerned, then i´d just go ahead and give´em a quick soak to see what´s up!…if nothings happened, then re-hem, otherwise just wear and hope for more shrinkage during the next soaks/washes!...

          Shrinkage might get you to 32", but probably not all the way to 31.5".  Best advice is what's already been said- wear then for a while to see how they settle, then hem if necessary

              thanks guy. I'll probably just soak them and see how it goes. still, I doubt they can shrink up 1". sounds too much.

                  Hmm… might as well get a tailor made cotton duck. Best fit of all, choose your own cutting length...etc  no worries. 😶 Enjoy rocking z duck 😘

                          i don´t think cotton shrink 1"…....my 806 where given a hot soak and they shrink minimal....
                          by the way is 16 oz cotton @ the 806 and 17 oz cotton @ the ducks......
                          give them a cold soak first for 30 min an see what´s  up

                          amen

                            They shrink maybe an inch in inseam over the course of several washes. This is from Mankarat and Giles.

                                put a piece of wood in the waist during the soak…so u have control over the soak/shrunk;-)

                                    damn! i forgot about that!!!! would it help if i put a stick or hanger now while its drying to control the shrink in the waist?  😞 the waist before soaking is perfect. any smaller means i'm screwed.  😞

                                      You're not getting anything over 0.5" in shrinkage, even less more than probably… So just cuff for now and wear them and decide later on what to do...

                                        Dont worry volcano mate, just wear and enjoy, afterwards you may decide if another hem service is necessary. Dont worry about the waist too much you will get that +- half of an inch if needed 🙂 if you are too worried put em on while damp  🙂
                                        best

                                          all ducks have 36,5 inseam…enough for shrinkage....unless volcano is 78,74 inch tall:-)
