      I received these yesterday and put them through their first soak.  Here are some numbers, should this help anyone.  Huge thanks to Matt, Giles and Paula for helping select the right pair to order.

      These are tagged 33 (I am normally 34 TTS):

      Pre-soak:
      Waist:  17.2
      Thigh:  13.25
      Inseam:  35.5
      Hem:  9

      Post-soak:
      Waist:  16.75
      Thigh:  13
      Inseam:  34.5
      Hem:  8.9

      I soaked them for one-hour with no agitation using what I'd characterize as slightly warm water, then let them drip dry overnight.  But they fit perfectly.

      Pretty damn stiff out of the bag and post-soak, but they are beautiful and dark.  I highly recommend them to those on the fence.

        I didn't really follow sizing conversations on here for some reason before purchase and so I'm happy to report that soaking in scalding tap water in my tub for an hour brought these into a perfect 634 fit, including the hemmed inseam length (thanks G et al).

        These are gorgeous. The stitching is so striking against the denim.

        Love the thick bobbin thread. Considering this is poly cotton, these are tanks.

        Think it, be it.

                    @Max:

                    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.

                    I agree with @Max Power I prefer the raw jeans & I'll handle the soak

                    Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
                    Well, I have others.

                          Finally soaked these & I'm so impressed.  I'm going to beat the shit out of them. You should make a t shirt - "IH. Built Like A Brick Shithouse."

                            Funnily enough when I was chatting with H last week and we were talking about the new 14oz denim, I said we should change our tagline from "We don't do light" to "We don't do crap"…...

                                Yep.  I mentioned it somewhere on the forum but can't remember where.  New sanforised 14.125oz indigo selvedge denim.  We ran a sample, did not like the selvedge ID, so have tweaked that and the denim is now in production, expect jeans to appear Feb.  The samples are amazing.  I'm aiming at a USD250 price point on these…...

                                          Not to completely derail this thread, but what is the denim like? Slubby like the 18oz, smooth like the 21oz, loose weave, tight weave?

                                            Time will tell….All I know atm, is I liked it (as did everyone who saw it), but until my a pair of jeans made from it turn up here I'd be trusting my rather deficient memory.
