@Affinaro:

Hey everyone

Sorry for asking noob questions all the time… Should i alter/hem my jeans after i soak it or before i soak it?

I'm guessing after soaking, since it might shrink. Or after soaking, wear and let the combs and whiskers settles before hemming.

don't let them settle before you hem cause once wear becomes more apparent it'll look off after you hem….. imagine having stack wear when you dont have stacks.

selfedge prefers if you soak before you hem.
ironheart has no preference

Guys

My advise is hem to desired lenght + 1,5" , then 2 hot soaks preferrably machinewashes to fully shrink these. Then they're done.  I have both RAWs and SRs, so I know something about this denim

there is a difference between soaking and machinewashing. this is my experience.
machinewashing means at at least 3% more shrinking than soaking or handwashing.

3% sounds to be not so much, but in fact sometimes this makes the fit!!
i soaked my 634-raw 21/23 and still it was to wide and i really wanted to sell it, but after machinewashing it was perfect!!

my wife has a special program 15 minutes, 40 degrees and a special detergent for BLUE jeans material.

i think it would be so nice if this 21/23 oz raw fabric make into super duper slim fit cut 

[Giles]

There is none of that fabric left…...

I think that would be utterly uncomfortable… and as G has said, there will be no more 21/23....

[beautiful_FrEaK]

It would be even nicer if there still were something left of it
All gone AFAIK. And no comeback. (right?)

edit: slomo…and right

Oh so sad to hear that….

Some pics I found on my phone

[Arabit]

Something about the fading characteristics of this denim. Really wish these weren't extinct

[Finn666]

great pics Dave…it's always an awesome feeling to jump back into these after some days of not wearing'em.

[chewie]

great fit dave.  is it just me or does it look slim for a 634?

[bagley920]

I have a pair of these for sale in the marketplace for those that missed out, waist 36

Rafa can show you how his turned out

[Seth]

I too wish they were not extinct. I like the slightly slimmer fit of this particular pair. That's the look I'd like in my next pair (probably 25s). If they weren't posted in a 634 thread, I would have guessed they were 666-XHS.

Thanks fellas… I think they look slim because of the angle.  I do think they're a little wider than my SRs even though that's not what the size charts say.

All I know is I'm glad they ran out of denim because I'd instantly buy anything made out of this denim.

[llvlaglne]

what tag size is that dave?

[dave]

31

[Finn666]

there´s nothing as comfortable as a pair of faded blue jeans…

[Veintiuno]

^killer! A pair of jeans one can be proud of.
