Thanks @Appfaff!
A couple notes on this denim:
-
There was ZERO indigo leak during/ after a 45 minute warm soak; the water was completely clear. (I'm curious as to why that is; I haven't seen that before).
-
The denim was so stiff after soak that they stood up on their own (with 1 finger to balance them).
-
Notwithstanding (2), they stretched over an inch in waist and softened considerably after only 1 wear.

@Ponyboy312 did you record shrinkage in waist and inseam?

@Ponyboy312 did you record shrinkage in waist and inseam?
@Giles Yes. I got 1" in length and 1.5" in waist from a 45 minute warm soak and drip dry. The waist stretched to preshrink after 1 wear.

Just a headsup, the forum link from product page for these jeans direct to 634-19L instead of the correct thread.
-
Works correctly for me now!
-
I've been trying to wear these more instead of shorts. I'm really liking them!
-
Nice fit. Nice gym. The combs are going to be off the chain if you refrain from washing too soon.
-
Just soaked my tagged 36 and here are some observations, I did a warm-hot soak for 1 hr to encourage shrinkage. My usual size of 34 was too small on this denim so I sized up.
-
No indigo in the soaking water, but plenty dripping down as it air dried. Also noted some discoloration in the water by what I assume to be starch
-
Definitely stiff after soak, able to stand up on its own
-
Shrinkage: Waist by 1.5 inches, back rise by 0.2, inseam around 1 inch
-
Will report on wear-in once these get hammed

any updates on these from the guys who have been putting some miles on them? how are they fading? are they stretching much more after prolonged wear? Are they softening up nice?
Any input would be appreciated.
