From 666 page of website:

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!

[cowsareforeating]

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

[quesadilla]

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.....

@Giles:

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

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.

[Giles]

The receptionist acknowledged your existence today then?

[RichValentine]

Yeah she apologised again. Think she felt bad, but not the best start to the year for her. Thanks again for all your help!

Fit pic from last night.. Please ignore the uneven cuffs, I was in a hurry….

size 32 TTS PRE-soak.

[Beatle]

Funny how I would think you're a tts 30…gonna soak twice ?

[elclintor]

Here's a quick post soak pic…

Think i should give it another soak?

[Giles]

Give them another really hot one…..............

[elclintor]

Will do Giles…

Like boiling hot?

I soaked them for 1 hour as hot as the faucet would pour..

[Giles]

No, no hotter that you have already done…..

[elclintor]

Ok, another soak tonight then…

Thanks

[quesadilla]

thats similar to what i did. i did a soak as hot as my faucet would go + some hot water every now and then from a kettle. then the next soak i did as hot as the faucet would go + more hot water from the kettle and a large pot of water that i brought to a boil. HOPEFULLY i've gotten the shrinking out since i'd like to have them hemmed…

edit: currently wearing them, i think i could've pulled off a 30. it would've been uncomfortable for awhile but i dont think i can get any more shrinkage from the waist. oh well. time to try and save for an IH belt NOT YET. if the overdye can get down to a 29.6 im determined i can get to a 30 at least. soaking pt. 3 will be happening. is it possible giles?

[Giles]

Confused, ask me in simple language…..
