      did it in the tub. bathwater was as hot as i could get it (which didn't last long) so i boiled some water and poured it in. i repeated this a few times so the water stayed pretty warm. waist definitely shrank not sure if i can get it to shrink anymore. a 30 wouldn't have been big enough for my hips.

      thanks, i loved that print a friend of mine got it framed for me for christmas. it's been sitting in the poster tube for a year

        im probably gonna go with the 29s(kind of scared a 28 will be too tight). how much do these shrink all around, and stretch in the waist?

          they shrink about an inch.  I supsect they will stretch an inch with wear.  Stever, what was your experience…..(Stever has had a pair longer than anyone else) G

                  going to soak once more today, just want to get as much shrinkage as i can. i may get these shortened but i need to see if i will be able to wear shoes like vans with these still. i don't want heel drag!

                    From the look? Probably a little bi.t but that's just a guess

                      i only have a construction measuring tape (metal one) so these arent the most accurate…
                      waist=30.75 inches
                      thigh=10.5"
                      hem=7.75"

                      had to measure quickly so i just took those three.if my hips weren't so wide i think i couldve gotten a 30.....

                        i limited my waist shrink by going for the 90s stylee soak (wear them in the bath) as they were already about perfect for me. i always wear a belt when i wear them to keep it perfect but i definitely noticed a lot of tightening around the upper thigh and butt (or maybe i just got too snackish during the snacking season…)

                          ive got a 33.5 inch waist (86 cm), i shd be getting tagged size 33, but can i downsize 1 to tagged size 32 (for 32.8 waist)?

                          i imagine the waist will shrink an inch and stretch an inch so the original measurement will stand.

                          what do you think?

                          thanks,

                          mikael.

                            My jeans arrived today, and they are amazing. Got the 31" which shouold be perfect post soak/stretch. Will wear them a couple of times to stretch them first or Ill never get into them post soak.

                            Have included a fit pic and can imagine it will only get better once they are soaked/worn.
