      You'll feck the patch up.  Apart from that, not a lot….

        Ok, thanks. Combination of losing weight and stretch have made my 301's unbearably large. Thought an extreme wash might help but I guess the sanforisation really does take all the shrinkage out?

            Good to know. It's either to the tailors or early re-purposing to building-the-veranda-jeans.

              Are they then ironed? they're always so flat when they arrive!

                      Could have been worse. Might have gone to Belarus- or Belize.

                                Anyone who has the UHR denim, did you soak the jeans and then put them directly into the washing machine while still wet or did you soak the jeans, let them dry, and then wash them? Just curious I think the IH instructions imply to soak and then put directly into the washing machine without letting them dry first.

                                  I just threw mine straight into the machine inside out, no worries. Cold wash, 1000RPM spin dry. Now I suggest following IH's advise, not mine, but am saying that they can handle normal washes without issue.

                                    Soaked em hot, put em out and walked into the basement to wash em. No rocketscience, but you should put the inside out.
