@boutsk how do you feel the thigh is? If you think you can afford for that to tighten up and stay that way, then give the wash thing a go.

I always start with a cold wash first. See how that works out. If I’m looking for more then I go to a warm wash….then finally if I need extreme results go with a hot wash.

Thighs will be ok even if tightened up. Maybe back rise will be ok with a hot soak, but I don't know if this will be permanent. My 25 oz Samurai (unsanforized and unwashed) were perfect after a warm soak and a cold machine wash but after 1-2 months waist, back and front rise and thighs returned to pre-soak measurements

Can’t thank @seawolf enough for making this custom piece for me. My tool pouch has been doing some right damage to my XHS . After a Top repair job done by Josh I wanted something to protect that area of constant rubbing while wearing my tool vest in work . Gave Zach some rough measurements and he kindly made this for me it’s spot on mate thank you .

Look at that! I'm so glad it's what you wanted James. Thank you for trusting me with your precious XHS @Jcaz6996

How's it doing so far? Is it comfortable? Is it doing its job?

[seawolf]

If anyone is interested in knowing how it fits onto the belt, I did a test fit here without a tool pouch or anything, to see how it worked.

@Jcaz6996 Incredible man, yet again!

[Jcaz6996]

@JunkPants cheers bud appreciate it

[Mizmazzle]

@seawolf is this designed to protect the jeans from heavy wear caused by the tool belt?

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Jcaz6996 dude, how do you keep them so clean with a 'dirty job'? I've found compressed air to be pretty effective for debris, is that your trick? sick fades

@WhiskeySandwich
I Use a clothes brush at the end of the day to brush and loose saw dust off

@Jcaz6996 killing it. What are you planning on wearing for the party?

[seawolf]

@Mizmazzle Sure is! You should see the hole he wore in his jeans before they were repaired. He started putting tape on his jeans to protect them, and I offered to make him something custom with leather. This was the result.

[Jcaz6996]

@Tago-Mago cheers … apart from my XHS Not quite sure yet. You ?

This entire week it’s been 30°C 80% humidity, so I haven’t really thought about wearing denim that much . Probably my 666 21oz or the 777-XHS, weather permitting

Just got a pair of these delivered yesterday. Ive had this in a different cut but never in the 555. Love em.

[deanclean]

Had to buy from Withered Fig. Took me a bit to find a place with my size.

Merry Christmas!
Need some advice, just opened my Christmas gift from myself and but I'm a bit worried these will be too tight after soaking. I actually thought they would be a bit bigger

[tody]

What is the area you are concerned about the most?
The general consensus is that they stretch back after soaking/washing to where they were before, at least in the waist.
So if they fit well now, you're golden.

@tody knees and thigh. The waist is good
