      The hand has definitely softened up a lot. I hope they remain stiff because I love this. They don't seem to be too stubborn because I haven't worn them very much but they have signs of fading all over. I like them a lot.

        I noticed today (even in the extreme humidity, which usually makes denim perceived to have a more rough hand) the denim has lost its roughness and is now super soft on the reverse. They still have retained their amazing rigidity. I am very impressed by this denim. I can't tell you how much I appreciate these guys.

          Mike from my experience altough the denim will soften it still feels heavy. Mime softened up at the friction areas but still very rigit at the low friction areas. Also the softness is not 21oz kinda of softness, but more leathery feel to it. Its a great denim and its character reveals slowly.

            Yeah I like that leathery feeling. We need to create some new terminology to describe IH denim. Leathery, suedey, extreme density, velvety, you name it.

                I'm getting some fades popping through on my honeycombs… Thought you might like.  They are quite ripe from wearing a lot so I'm giving them a breather. For a day. I'll probably resume wearing on Monday.

                634-21L are the pants I have on.

                      Thanks guys 🙏

                      I'm back in the FGLs today. I gave them a spritz of isopropyl, let them dry and then and then a liberal douse of Railcar denim spray…
                      They no longer stink. This stuff works really well. I recommend it.

                        Using some redneck engineering to hot soak my babies… I don't want to ruin the patch in the hot water. I have a thin piece of plywood underneath to keep it above the laundry tub. And a piece of lathe through the patch and belt loops.

                              Yes I've had this problem but never thought of that so looks like a trip to the lumber yard is overdue for sure 😃

                                Thanks guys! @Ben it took about an hour for the capillary action to reach the bottom right corner of the patch. So keep that in mind. And use a small hose to create a siphon to drain the container so you don't accidentally flood where you are doing this when it comes time to drain the container. Don't try to lift the jeans out before the container is almost drained… Or do this outside or on a cart and then go outside.

                                  Haha okay cool, maybe I'll print that & have the different steps numbered like flatpack furniture instructions or I'll definitely mess it up  😃

                                    Edit: FWIW, I highly recommend soaking the denim in hot water like I did. They didn't shift and the denim is deodorized and stiff and rough again just like when they were new. I will probably do this to all my jeans from now on instead of wearing them until they are ghastly… I'll be soaking my slubby Pronto Anniversary jeans like this next.

                                          @Anesthetist  😃 haha more like 'marginally less BO'

                                          Unrelated the combs on my FGL-19L are pretty crazy since the last soak and trip through the dryer. They didn't shrink at all and the waist was stretched back out to what it was before in a couple hours.
