            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!...

            read it and chill;-)

                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;-)

                        He's not asking about shrinkage in the waist, Alex, but about shrinkage of the length.

                          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

                              Cheers,

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

                                    hang  them @ the legs(turn over)…the weight of the wet cotton stretch them itself during drying

                                      Flatten out the pants, make sure there are no major creases whilst drying.

                                        that's the straightest/flattest I can get them to be. hopefully when they dry up over the night, it'll look better. 🙂 anyway feck it! it's just a pair of pants. my only concern is the length cos now I can't wear it with my converse kicks. 😞

                                          I had to triple cuff mine… Check my pics here... I'm having them hemmed but to 33" so I can still do a smal(ler) double cuff... Sure they're not selvedge but there's no reason why you shouldn't cuff mate!..

                                            hahaha I had them hemmed today but it's still too long. I told 31.5 but it came back 32.5 which makes it hard to wear with my converse now. 😞
