      I'd feel safe to hem after a month of wear.  But then I don't bother doing that.  I just always hem immediately to 1" longer than I want them to end up….

        Great, thanks. I'll start wearing these bad boys out and reassess in a few weeks.

          Excellent purchase!

          It depends on a few things:

          -How loose/tight the fit is around your knees. If it is loose, they will take some time to set (with daily wear, a few days, with intermittent wear a bit longer), and there won't be as much length eaten up by the creases because there won't be as many due to the loose fit. If the fit is relatively tight, they will set quicker and eat up more length. I usually hem ~2" above my dress inseam with a snug fit around my knees, some stacking at the hems and no cuff.

          -You can speed up the creasing by either soaking the jeans briefly and then putting on while still slightly damp or just spraying the back of your knees with water and doing some crouches or movements to get the knee combs going…That should take up all possible length from combs/creases so you can choose the best length to hem.

          Edit: Giles always gets there first. Apologies for the redundancy..

            Thanks for the response. They are moderately tight around the knee so after 7 days of wear they may be already mostly set. I may use the spray behind the knee technique though just to be sure.

                Just received W34, How do you guys think it fits ?

                Its a bit snug at the waist right now, I need it to stretch a bit, atleast 1 inch, any thing above that would be a bonus.

                  Looks great, and 1" Stretch shouldn't be a big deal on that denim.

                      I hot soaked it and sun dried inside  out, its my die hard habit before using any new jeans. I made sure I did not soak the leather patch as you can see.

                      It shrank 1 inch in length and few mm in over all width. Post soak fit pics :

                      Fits like a glove now, I just hope it does not stretch out insanely. ( Any ideas )

                          Tx Alex for advicing, would it stretch out at the Hips too ? I am worried if it stretched out any more in hips, it would turn out saggy.

                                  After my First day of wear. This is the baggiest pair of jeans I ever owned, I still feel very conscious, it will take a couple more days to get used to I guess. I keep thinking I could have sized down 1 more inch but again we should probably change our style once in a while and try new things.

                                  I could not manage time yet to visit my tailor for hemming.
