PIHXHS - 25oz Pronto Collaboration Selvedge Denim Super Slim Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
@Alex screwed my order up on these. Need a 38 not 40. I sent you an email about it. But I wanted to grab your attention. My bad.
-
Thanks man. You are my hero.

It is gonna be a long, hard road breaking these in… I can easily button them. But sitting down... OMG.
The craftsmanship on these is pretty amazing. I particularly love the softness of the inside of the black Wabash pocket bags.
Most excellent guys. I love them and the Faith teacore belt is perfect with them. It will be neat to see how the belt and the jeans evolve together.
The stealth arcs are my favorite.
The belt, 18 oz CPO, and the jeans weighed a whopping 7.8 lbs.

That a can of skoal in your back pocket. Christ I miss that stuff. Quit 3 years ago.
And those jeans are really great.

Damn. I need to start running in mine as well!

Just picked up a pair of these to become my dailies. Purposefully sized up to give me some "flexibility" in being a dad, weight gain/loss and actually having the ability to bend over etc.
What's the consensus on soaking with these? I can button the top button now but also don't want them to become saggy. Since they're sanforized, they may not need a soak? Also want to keep them as dark as possible…
-
Lightly sanforised so they will shrink a little. I didn’t bother washing/soaking my 666XHS until they had 3 months wear on them. When I did they lost about half an inch in the waist and nearly an inch in length. No biggie but the fades behind the knees didn’t quite match after the wash.
They are by no means ruined, and I still wear them, but if and when I buy another pair I’ll hot soak first.

Thanks. I was talking to Alex or Adam via email and I one of them seemed to not recommend hot soaking. Thoughts vs cold?
-
Yes, that would be a no duh moment on my part. Just curious what seems to be the going wisdom with XHS and hot vs cold soak…
-
Hot soaking/washing won't damage them at all but soften them up a lot and bed in the stitching so they can serve you longer. There will be some slight shrinkage as neph stated but if they do fit in their raw state they will fit after being soaked/washed as this denim can be stretched and is already surprisingly comfortable from the start.

Well, I'm just trying to do my due diligence by the fabric. I can wear them for a few weeks and hot soak if they're getting too loose, however, I'd like to keep as much indigo as possible. Do y'all feel like more comes out when you hot soak?
