        @adam313 - great pics & denim. Wefty said it perfectly

        @weftyarn:

        @adam313 Phenomenal fade pics! It's not easy to capture the "natural" fading look - these look absolutely authentic. Even though i never saw the denim in person, these pics make me feel i have 😃

          I'm no expert fader by any means, but these have been the slowest to fade in my experience. I probably have about 90+ wears on mine, took then hiking a few times, just dorking around the house, and I'm finally getting a little light blue popping behind the knees.

          Blanket-line all the things!!!

            It's been a long time coming then! Congrats on finally getting yourself a pair @Filthy. Kinda thought you'd pull the trigger on another pair of XHSib's before any other denim  😛

              Thank you very much! I have a pair of 888xhsib in a size larger. The new ones are gonna be somewhat of an experimental pair. I plan on removing the patch and hot soaking them and a hot wash right out the gate. I was thinking about maybe trying to  use a cement mixer with some boiling  water to gently agitate the jeans for a few hours 🤔

                  If I can get a Harbor Freight mixer for $120 (with coupons) it might happen.  Or I might just weld a drill bit on to an old soup pot and use this ancient corded drill I have….

                      You bet. It would be cool to have a cheap cement mixer for washing jeans in. I am actually worried I am gonna break the washer when I wash my jeans in it. It sounds like a helicopter.

                        😃 😃 😃 love that Simpsons clip!

                        Your cement mixer sounds like a brilliant idea. Down to see how this goes down & if you end up rigging something, def share please! Gotta go the extra mile for these heavyweights. I actually think my last NEW washer broke bc of all the denim bashing  ???  😢

                          Lookie what has arrived 😄

                          I am soaking them on the stove on low heat until it is time for me to leave. I won't have time to remove the tag and run them through the washer like I wanted to.

                          I'll probably soak them a couple times this week and try to shrink them as much as possible.  I could barely get them buttoned up… I almost had to lay down on the bed. So the waist should be just right after a while. The rest of them is super comfy and roomy 👌

                          Also @Graham EXCELLENT JOB on the double chainstitch hem job it is perfect  🙂

                            Well I got about a half an inch of vertical shrinkage with my boiling soak. I'll let them dry and try again.

                              @Filthy hey we wear the same waist size! 😉 I want to see that 'double chainstitch hem job'! Sounds interesting. 🙂

                                My pleasure @Filthy so glad you love them!

                                You got a twofer on these. I did one leg and @Jack did the other. Neither of us wanted to miss out on the action!

                                  @vaquero357 did you know Little House on the Prarie is my favorite show ever? The double chainstitch they just go around twice so there's more cushion for the pushin' 😆

                                  Yeah it's awesome @Jack @Graham thanks a lot.

                                    They put me in the handicapped room at this hotel (because I am obviously mentally handicapped lmao) because I wanted a king size room on the first floor and I had to get it changed because it didn't have a tub. 😂

                                      IDK how but I think I got the inseam to shrink a whole inch… I hot soaked them twice and the blew a hairdryer on them for a half an hour  🙂 😃

                                      They were a tad over 33 before the soaks and now I am here. Hopefully this is good enough.

                                        That hotel is going to be wondering what the heck you did to consume so much electricity in your room 😃

                                          😃 I tried to remove the hairdryer from another room so I could two at once. They're the wall mounted shits. So I did 15 minutes up each leg 😂

                                            If you would've gone up to a higher floor, you probably could've turned them into a windsock off the balcony.  Though I can only imagine some of the many ways that that could go hilariously wrong 😃
