      creases could occur, but this mustn't happen. All in all a tub soak is more gentle. But you could maybe turn the spin cycle off. And it would surprise me, if the water in yout tub had 70 degrees, so the jeans could possibly shrink more in the machine.

        my guess is: IH666's + trip through the washing machine= weird annoying marks in the jeans

          it won't be that bad, but hand wash / soak is the safe bet.

            at 400 bucks or so, I was NOT going to chance it! Currently soaking in the tub, can't be more than 40-45, though. BTW, the water turned a bit blueish immediately.

              I was worried about soaking my pair of 666's as they were a fairly snug fit in the thigh and waist.

              I hot soaked for 2 hrs then hung them up to dry overnight.

              As soon as i woke up i put them on (only slightly damp) and wore to work to loosen them up a little.

              I was walking like the tin man off wizard of oz for a few hours, but they feel fine now.

                The best way to stretch a waist is by wearing it whilst still damp…

                Of course: this implies you being able to get into them first, which can be quite the hassle... Been there...

                  Thought that it would be useful to give you sizing inf of my tagged 33's.  One hot soak and one weeks constant wear:

                  Waist    34
                  FR          10.5
                  RR          15
                  Thighb    12
                  Knee        8.5
                  Cuff        8.25
                  Inseam    36

                  I get more compliments in these jeans than any other pair I have ever owned - and I thought I was not a slim jean dude…..

                      Alex - I have not tried the DC4001…judging by thigh measurements (size 36, 666 12.1 /  34dc4 13 ) I am not sure that sizing up might be a solution

                        I wear 33 in both.  But the 666 took a load more effort to beat into submission…...

                                  My personal view is that what your waist measures is to a great part academic.  My actual waist is way higher than the waist band of my jeans.  What is important is what a pair of jeans you have worn for a while actually measure and then make some informed adjustments depening upin the rise.

                                  I get returns every day from people who either measure their actual waist or believe the tag-size bullshit on their existing jeans.  Example, I am having a pair of 34 634S retunred today because the customer wears a tag size 34 in a pair of Levis, the poor dude, could not even do the bottom button up, I suspect the actual measurements of those "34's" is closer to 37….........

                                    They are raw and should be soaked…..
