        The duty of mb fades falls on you @Oaktavia dude. These are looking exceptionally good in the time you’ve been wearing them!

        Heck yeah Rox! I will carry this MB torch as far as I can run with it. I have been doing some home improvement projects, such as installing flooring, painting and gardening that contribute to the fades. I'm feeling pretty good about them so far.

                    They are fascinating jeans. Like velvet.

                            Hmm...I bet it would work with some fanegeling

                                @Oaktavia I've been thinking about this and I don't know if a stretcher used on the thighs is a good idea. When you use the stretcher on the waist the fabric is one strip that is continuous around the waist of the pant and the weak point would be where it buttons.

                                The stretcher on the thighs would be exerting force on two sewn seams and may put pressure where it's not meant to be put. I have faith in the skill and craftsmanship of the jeans, but I do worry that the pant isn't designed for that kind of strain in that area.

                                Hopefully it makes sense.

                                  Quite a while ago I remember someone here dealing with a tight thigh fit & washing/drying their denim. You know.. everything may be a little loose but the thighs could be a problem with shrink.

                                  Anyhow - their solution was inflating a couple of those rubber balls you used to have on the playground back in grade school. The idea was to put them in the thighs after a wash/still wet & pumping them up.
