    They look good now mate but If you feel they are a bit skinny, they are going to slim up quite a bit with washing. I wish I had of gone with the 5105 as well. My 5109's are way to skinny for my liking, hence why they are in the for sale thread.

    I have a pair of 3105's and it felt like the 51xx denim shrunk alot more than the 31xx. Great fabric though!

      51XX shrinks more for certain. I can't imagine an 09 in it, the 05 is barely room enough for my thighs.

      Think it, be it.

        The pics are post-wash, so I'm hoping that they're done shrinking. Does this denim keep shrinking with a second or third wash?

          Depends on your intial soaking/washing method mate. I gave my pair an initial hour long hot soak, then a warm wash in the machine. I wore them a handful of times for a few weeks and then decided to sell them. Gave them another cold wash and there was definetley some more shrinking going on.

            I did a cold soak on mine. I have no intention of letting hot water anywhere near them!

              Hi all,

              This is my first time posting pics. Here are images of my 3105's that I've owned for about 14 months that I worn between 2-3 times a week.  I hot soaked these twice and washed them about 5-6 times? Can't remember really.

                                No more car talk in the TSG thread. Lets head over to the appropriate thread with more pics and info 😉

                                  Evo update on the 51XX denim. Looks like tiger stripe camo.
