            Nate u should really consider the 555 cut.  They are better than u can imagine.  The fit is not what people first feared

                  Sizing is so close between the 666s and the 555 18oz it's tough to choose between.

                    i do own both and IMO the 555 is a so much nicer fit/cut and overall feel as the 666Sod…I wear a 34 in the 555-03 and a 38 in the 666Sod.
                    the 555-03 are a tiny bit roomy in the waist and fitted in the thighs!
                    the 666Sod are also roomy in the waist and a that loser in the thighs, but with way more room in the knees and hem!

                    since owning the 634s-raw and now the 555-03, my 666Sod getting no wear at all!
                    IIRC I wore them for 5 days max. this year...I don't really like'em anymore and consider giving them away!...

                      great fit, oliver!

                      @ Rafa: I would keep the ods if I were you. the fit looks great and they are already faded beautifully.
                      od´d pants look great especially with your duck jacket…

                      why so serious?

                        I was thinking in terms of the 666s and the 18oz 555. Both quite close.

                              post 2nd hot soak. i found things just firmed up a bit more all round, i lost a bit more in the waist but no more on the inseam. getting that top button done up was tough though…

                                        Just finished soaking my sz 32 and really shocked / disappointed by the shrinkage in the leg opening.. 7.3 after hot soak, about no shrinkage. Everywhere else has shrunken properly though, really strange. Don't really know what to do at this point maybe put them on the market and try for another pair and request they pick out one with a smaller leg opening? Saved up for a while for these and am really let down right now..

                                          7.3 is TINY!, whatever you may be thinking about this situation, you will be fine.  It's not like a 7.3" opening will hang over your shoes  ;D.  Seriously!

                                          Boil water (or hot tap water) and pour it into a bucket.  Dip the hems in the water and soak 10, 15, 20 minutes whatever you like.  Then dry them quickly (in the sun or in the dryer, i recommend in the sun).  Theoretically you should have some shrinkage left in the 18oz. raw denim.  Hot water, fast drying should get the rest out for you.

                                            How much shrinkage were you hoping for?

                                            I've only ever get a maximum of about 0.3 inch shrinkage at the hem on my jeans (even ones which generally shrink more than IH), which is hardly noticeable at all.

                                            Give them a chance before you make a final decision.
