          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

              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 🙂

                Maybe so. Maybe not

                  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

                    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.

                        Twice hot-soaked?

                        Mine should arrive on Monday. Pumped!

                          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

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

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

                                Yes. Just a thin coat. Don't overdo it. I just smeared it on with my thumb because it is the size of the top of the bottle. A little goes a long way. Also Wesco bee oil works super-awesome.

                                I kept it above the water though. It did slowly get wet as the water soaked through the waist. But as long as it isn't constantly under the hot water it will be fine.

                                  My hot water doesn't get as hot as yours, I bet. Mine only goes to 120F.  How hot is your hot-soak water?

                                      Oh, okay.  I don't know why I thought yours was way hotter. I think I once saw one of your soak pictures with steam rising from the tub, just assumed it was much hotter.

                                        Take any before soak and post soak @Filthy ? These your daily jeans for a while?

                                          I am sure it was mentioned, but are the arcs indigo dyed?

                                            They are tonal but navy blue I believe, not indigo.

                                            EDIT: now I think about it, IH use polycotton stitching that doesn’t take up indigo so indigo dyed arcs would be a tall order for IH.
