      Some people choose to soak the jeans before putting in the washing machine, too. Also, avoid using detergent or fabric conditioner when you are just washing for shrinkage

          Good afternoon. Will soaking make the fabric softer? I understand the starch will be washed out of the fabric?

            @Walery-Smirnoff soaking will make it a little softer, at least.. if you wanna XHS call soft 🤣 some indigo and starch will come of and make it a little softer for example. Overall the XHS is a beast and takes some time and a lot of wear to beat.

              I still have a slight panic))) Jeans stick out with a stake and I feel like a firefighter in a fire in them) At least hit them with a rolling pin

                  I soaked mine once and I don't think they got any softer. Became softer after 2 months of wearing 5 days a week.

                      Forum users tell me please, will soaking help? The new 888s in the top block are too loose. Both sides and front. You can see it in the photo above.

                      After soaking, the upper block will sit down a little and the landing will be slimmer

                        When I got mine, I warm soaked them and the top block tightened up a bit. But by the looks of yoirs you wouldn’t get enough shrinkage to make them fit as well as they should.
                        Also, if a size down feels a bit too tight in then waist, remember it will stretch out with some wear. I had to suck in my stomach the first week of wear in mine. They stretched perfectly and fit me amazing now.

                        In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                          Hello everyone from Togliatti! Yesterday I soaked the monster for 3 hours) And by the way, a lot of indigo came out of this pair. Other jeans didn't give off paint like that. I put them on in the morning. As the forum member said above, the upper block has become smaller. The jeans themselves have become softer. Almost no reduction in length. Sat in the belt from 49 cm to 47 cm.

                            Now they need to be run in. Wear them more often, do your own business and do not pay attention to them. Natural creases will appear and they will look cool.

                                        We have a fever. +30. 25 oz is not an easy test) But at the same time, jeans give a feeling of armor and security.
