Toss a coin…

I would kind of split the difference and hem them so that you would get some stacking,probably an inch longer than your 32oz jeans. How's that for being noncommittal?

Agree with jett129. Take some length out as just too much stacking at the mo. About half as much stacking would be ideal imo. Great score [emoji106]

So I'm guessing you mean "I will soak them again" but just in case I'm going to take you literally.  Don't soak just the hems, you need to soak the entire jean if you expect to get that shrinkage.  The entire jean needs to shrink in length.

@montanadam I am Considering the entire soak process again. Or
Maybe I will just wear few more
Month and than soak again.

I know it's not a popular thing to do around here,but whenever I get new jeans I throw them right in the washer and the dryer and be done with it. After the first time they hang dry. I haven't measured how much the shrunk,but they fit perfect. I have the tapered model.

@twin:

Stacks or a hem job. That's the question. You guys will vote on this.

A- Stacks

B- Hem them

Is a soak recommended for these before wearing? I couldn't find any solid guidance when I got a pair of the XHS but I soaked and didn't experience any noticeable difference.

Thanks, Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere.

Best to treat as raw as they are sanforised but unwashed…..

@Winchy hooked it up with the measurement assistance…thank you, sir.

I'd been kicking around the idea of picking these up since the thread dropped last fall.  Then the pics of the arcs came out.  I held off for a moment...but while meditating the Force told me these were needed and I don't like to argue with the Force.  Luckily the Force kept a few 32's around for me to work with.  My first pair of 666's! 

If only UPS had hyperdrives…

You are very welcome @budpatch. It'll be worth the wait.

In the end, as always, resistance was futile!
