I posted over in the 666 thread on this denim too but @Giles your's look fantastic.

I'm well through any honeymoon phase now that I'm about three months in on these. In that time I've also worn all my other pairs of IH's here and there and I have to say this is my favorite pair/fabric.  FWIW I own or have owned the 21oz, 21oz overdye, 21oz greyxblack, 19oz Lefty's V. 2.0, 18oz overdye, and 14oz.

This is a great fabric and I really recommend it if you guys are on the fence or haven't picked a pair up yet.

@manufc10:

After my second wash on these I have to say that the fade progress really seems to be accelerating.  Very nice to see.  I'll throw up some more update pics in a couple weeks.

@xtcclassic I've been alternating this week between these and the 14oz and IMO these do seem a bit warmer than the 14oz.

Thanks for the update. If it ever warms up here in St. Louis, I'll experiment myself and see if I concur.

Get a good amount of shrinkage with a hot soak?

[neph93]

Nope.

[Jett129]

I  pretty warm washed, and dried mine in the  Shrinkmaster 9000 and didn’t get hardly any.

[Jordonf9]

What about stretch? Saw 1" in waist, but seeing what others have resulted or felt after wearing them in. Thanks

Not masses. Certainly not in the 21oz realm. I’d say an inch, no more.

First day of wear. Just seeing if they look okay.

[neph93]

I’d say they look exactly like they should. I like these with cuffs!

Thanks! Spoiled by the 888 cut, and like the second opinion.

I’ll post up my 633 measures when I get home from work. I’d say mine stretched out faster than my 21oz and possibly more than my 21oz 634. I could just be imagining things tho…

No, sorry - it’s been insanely crazy. I have a slow day tomorrow and will do my best. I took pre wear measures, so I’ll show the comparison

no worries; when you are free to post some measurements that will be great

@flavour79 - Here is the stretch. I have worn these probably 10-15 times, and only a few times for more than a few hours. To say that have stretched is an understatement, especially since I wear a belt rather snugly with the wait when I wear them:

633s-18 Size 38
New -> Current Measures After Stretch
Waist: 36.8/37 -> 39
Front Rise: 12 -> 12.25
Back Rise: 16.25 -> 17
Thigh: 13.75 -> 14.25

wow thats substantial
