    Can I ask what happens to the measurements after a shrinking wash. Obviously the waist stretches back, but are the other measurements also likely to loosen back a bit? In particular thigh, knee and hem..?

      All dimensions will shrink proportionately to the waist and inseam: those that are put under pressure will have a tendency to stretch back out, those that aren’t will not

        Thanks Giles. I'm sure at this stage you probably have a library that you can cut and paste answers from to these nooby questions. So, I might try another. Cold washing would minimise the shrinkage?

        I'm wary of being too old for too skinny jeans, and am having trouble deciding on my next pair of jeans (black)..

              And you do wear them well… Yours would be the look I'd like, but would just be afraid the legs would end up too tight..

                    Wearing mine today…it takes time to get used to such heavy denim, but it'll serve me well in winter! I just wshed the backrise was 1" higher.

                      I feel the same. Besides the backrise they are one of my best fitting pairs…

                        I think the 555-03 could do the trick, no?

                            Just to get images in here.

                            The low rise is taking some getting used to but you know problems of denim lovers

                                      thanks for the kind word folks

                                      beware of the rise to thigh ratio.

                                      the jeans are dope, but the only reason i still have them is the blacked out W and the pockets . . . yes, I am special.

                                      all the talk of the selvedge superblack & the cut they are going to end up in has me very curious

                                        Do you find them a lot more snug in the top block than the 555?
