      My 666 XHSs after nearly 6 months and numerous (cold) washes.

      Battled with my 25 oz, won the war!

        6 months tomorrow! A bit of contrast developing on the thighs - more on my left one than my right, but not as much as the pic suggests!

          These however have given up a bit despite having less wear than my TW666N. Weather is getting favorable for these again so…

                        My fist IH item, ordered from Rodeo Bros. on Rakuten.

                        Freebies and a hand written note:

                        Fit pics:


                        Sz 34
                        Waist: 34.5
                        Thigh: 12
                        Knee: 18.5
                        Ankle: 8.5

                        These are my initial measurements. I just did a hot soak this morning, and they are hang-drying on my balcony waiting for me to get off work.

                        Post soak fit pics and measurements coming later!

                          They'll shrink a little, but they also stretch if need be. Enjoy the ride, mate.

                            Maybe my "hot soak" wasn't neither hot enough nor long enough. I just came home from work to nice, crunchy, dry jeans with barely shrank fractions of an inch. Re-soaking NOW in hotter water, and I'll let them marinate for a little longer time.

                              the time is not so important.
                              Agitation has much more effect. 😎

                                One huge thing I did notice immediately though, was that the fit is not really "slim" on me, let alone "super slim". I took the advice I saw echoed here so many times and sized for my thighs since that area isn't prone to stretching so much. Maybe my numbers were off though. Fingers still crossed though! I'm hoping for a denim miracle!

                                  25 oz doesn't shrink much. Good thing you got them so cheap in case you decide to flip them.

                                    Thanks for the info! I did 0 agitation during the "first initial soak". Going now to agitate!!!!!

                                      I'll pay it forward and share the savings if I decide against them. Is there another IH pant that is more tapered from the knee to ankle?
