@Oaktavia perfect my friend, with Mr Lou they are a dream, congratulations

I've been considering picking up a pair of these from a member here and sending them off for hemming to wear uncuffed.

My cuffed 555s come in at just under a 30 inch inseam, I was gonna get these taken down to 31 inches but the amount of shrinkage you got has me wondering if I should allow a little more length...

Edit; I could just wash them before hemming

[Oaktavia]

@T4920 they definitely shrunk to just where I usually wear my cuffs. I was not expecting as much but fortunately I still feel they worked out. If you want to play it safe, perhaps the extra inch will help you.

Love these jeans

Any idea how much it shrunk in the inseam? I got my pair hemmed but would like at least an inch of shrink. I haven’t soaked it yet

[yannis]

Usually an inch in the waist and inseam after a hot soak. Not an exact science. Some people get more some less.

[MassiveThighs]

That’s good to hear! After rolling the cuffs twice, I could use another inch or so on the inseam.

[yannis]

I assume you have been wearing them and haven't soaked them yet. If you wait too long the creases will shift after the soak. Just give them a good hot soak for about an hour and them turn the inside out and put them in the washing machine. Turn off the spin cycle if you have that feature. Then air dry them and wear the hell out of them.

Thank you, I have worn my pair for probably less than 2 hours or so.

No problem man. Nice jeans you go there. Enjoy them!

Plus they were unhemmed and I think 634 looks better hemmed. This is how they should fit. Turns out even though I'm 6'3" I have tiny legs as my inseam is 30".

Perfect.

Complete agree on 634 unhemmed. My main issue with hemming is that is designated failure point for ripping / tearing / wearing out.

Guess I should stop whining about 30" inseam while being 5'11.

40 wears I am stoked on this pair.
