Twin, every time I see you say "bust 'em" I think about this scene from one of my favorite movies, White Chicks.

@Filthy I was wondering how you made out with the buttons. Was afraid you were going to say piece of cake. @sabergirl I feel like it’s a more intense(in every aspect) version of the Pronto /IH 25OZ,and that’s ,so far,my all time favorite denim.

@neph93 irresponsible?! Are you serious?!? This seems to become one of the most wonderful denims…

[kkibbey23]

I’m trying really hard to sit this out…. not sure I will make it. I’m a 25oz guy and really really digging these.

Needless to say I’m watching the stock levels on 36

Fekk it [emoji1]

Have you given up the resistance?

Ummm, yes. According to The Borg, it’s futile anyway [emoji1]Sized down to 33 too. Should be interesting…

Don’t know how I missed this. Fek yes

It’d irresponsible of me to own anymore denim than I already do. But no, I wasn’t entirely serious.

Good on ya Reuben. Black and blue through and through

There was no doubt in my mind @neph93 would end up getting a pair of these!!

Currently trying to think of how I can sell this purchase to Maddy…
My list of unused excuses are:

2yrs anniversary on Wednesday...
Valentine's Day soon...
Her annual vacay to Japan...

I should be good to go! But if you see a black eye in my fit pics, don't mention it, lol

Giles wants to buy a sous vide cooker so that she can cook with it next time you come and stay....

Forgiveness rather than permission, right? Plus black and blue just matches the pants!

But in all seriousness, I’ve devoted the past few months to stabilizing the finances (after the birth of our second). This won’t interrupt the financial plan, and I want them, enough said.

Pics when they get here.

Me too. They do “soften” quickly. But that’s subjective I think

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Bad pic. But these almost hold their shape horizontally now they have been soaked and dried. Getting ready to put them on now. Already broke a finger nail trying to button the fly a couple times. Haha xD

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Ever since my first pair of Iron Heart 25 XHS I have wanted a pair with small leg openings. So I really owe you one Crew, @Giles  and @Alex and Boss.

Also this denim feels super awesome and heavy. Like XXXHS. Thanks so much guys.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Also, @Madame Buttonfly and @AdamC were a ton of help too. Thank you.

Twice hot-soaked?

Mine should arrive on Monday. Pumped!

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

This time I soaked for about 5 hours and changed the water to make it scalding hot 3x times. Long enough to take mom to a doctor's appointment and out to dinner. Then I put a fan blowing on them overnight.

They did shrink quite a bit. They feel overall much more snug than when I first tried them on.

Also I didn't fuck up the patch xD

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

After the soak they fit like they were measured and tailored for me.

[Paul9221]

Nice!  Red Wing oil on the patch just before the soak?
