Soaking and Stretching Denim
-
Buy true to size and wear a belt. You can't stretch your jeans that much further than your waist really is. Most stretching in the waist occurs when you're sitting/bent over when you buy true to size.
You hear about massive amounts of stretching when people size down so they can have a slim fit out of a standard fit jean

QFT.
i try to explain this to people everyday..they try to size way down because of stretch..but the truth is jeans will only stretch a ton if they are too small for you to begin with…the APC and NUDIE method of "size way down and never wash" is actually really bad for your jeans.

You kind of have to size down with APC. I really hate their denim. If you blow on it it'll stretch. It's fucking ridiculous that I can stretch out a pair of jeans five inches in the waist when I start out true to size. My APC's are the only jeans I've ever sold.
I always get true to size with IH. I've never had a pair stretch more than an inch, and if they didn't stretch that inch I probably wouldn't be able to sit comfortably
If I really want a slim cut jean, I'll just buy a slim cut jean. I have no desire to make my 634SR look like my SEXIH07
