@Giles:

Wait till you get hold of the indigo/indigo duck…....

What is this Indigo/Indigo duck you speak of? I see no mention of it anywhere else than this thread.

When will it show itself? What weight is it? What will it be used for?

They look great Trickhell!

Hey @TrickHell you watching the WWE Network?

[spitfiredealer]

Look good @TrickHell How much did you have them tapered ?

[guiltyparty]

@trickhell respect! I love it. I got New Japan World too. I'm hoping for Bryan vs Lesnar at Mania.

Oh yeah and the pants look sweet too.

Wrestle Kingdom 9 was phenomenal. All for a wrestling thread but wouldn't be surprised if it were just you and I. haha.

Would make 3, though I don't watch as much as used to.

[Midgegante]

So what are folks thoughts about these a few weeks in?  On the fence.  Not sure I need another pair of jeans right now, but I'm sorely tempted.

[johnny5799]

Agree with Trick, I sized wrong.  They came up one size too big.  Probably shipping em off to RCFG for some tapering and downsizing.

[WGIC]

Ordered and on the way!  Thanks to Paula for all the help! It's been a little while since I ordered new jeans…that's what happens when you live in the desert.  Pics and feedback soon.

Hi G, remember you saying hoping these will remain extant. Have they been selling well for you, or your retailers?

[Giles]

Selling like Crack…..Re-runs have been initiated....

Great news since I missed the first batch!

[Max Power]

Can't speak for "the People" but I'd suggest a gentle wash at 40°C without spin, turned inside out, no detergent. That should get all the shrinkage out. You can also put the in the tub with the hot water, agitate them and do that twice for 20 minutes.

[Giles]

I agree with @Max Power

We have been thinking of doing the following for some time, but @babyknight suggested it again a couple of days ago…

When we get the new offices, we'll offer a wash, shrink and hem service......

[NorthernVictory]

Have you thought of selling two batches? The first raw, the second one-washed.

[Giles]

We do not have the space, or the desire or the working capital to double up on stock of all our raw jeans.  Spending USD400 on a washing machine is a more attractive alternative….

[babyknight]

Nice @Giles , I think this is a super customer-friendly service option to offer.

I know many people enjoy the whole soaking of raw denim process but frankly for me the novelty wore off the first time and I just want to get a pair of jeans in the mail and start wearing them!  Very cool thing for IH to offer the option.

[Max Power]

Ye, it's a nice Service. But I never understood the need for that to be honest.

If you can read the size Charts and trust the given indication regarding shrinkage, you should be fine. If somebody else washes your Jeans, you can't control  or know what he's doing to them (i.e. did they wash hot or lukewarm - how much shrinkage might still be in there? Did they treat them gentle? …)

Plus, the raw fit indicates what they might stretch back to. At least you need to know you have to account for a good amount of stretch in a one wash pair to judge wether they fit or not.

I worte it a few years ago - raw everytime for me.
