IH-888S-UHR - 21/23oz Ultra Heavy Raw Selvedge Denim High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans

[K1_0]

I managed to get a pair of these from Iron Shop Provisions in size 36 before it was sold out everywhere. I didn't need more jeans, but my regular size 34s are too restrictive due to some weight gain, so I figured I'd buy a more comfortable pair while I work to slim back down.

Comparison shots below. The old ones are IH-888-NT repaired by Indigo Proof. I believe it was the same exact denim just with tonal arcuates (it's also a 21/23oz raw in any case).

Hey guys! Can i please get some advice? I did a hot soak (40 degrees plus) and cold wash no spin. The waist is good and comfortable, but i still have a bit of excess material in the crotch area and a few areas. (Apologies for the crotch shots)

Should i look to maybe do another wash maybe at 30 or 40 degrees? I realised i just selected the cold water setting on my washing machine instead of 30 or 40 and measuring the before and after specs i dont feel like enough shrink happened, just maybe the waist? So im a bit confused....

anyhow any advice would be appreciated!

@Luke_is_back Please look at the retailers located here

@cyclops The jeans will settle with wear, but yes, you could do another soak/wash to see if you can shrink them more.

@Denimhead-0 awesome, from the fit pics looks the 33 was great choice

@cyclops if you did a cold wash the first time, I bet you will get some more shrink with a warm wash

@cyclops if it was me I would totally do a 40C wash before wearing extensively. Just to make sure you do all you can to remove as much as possible of that excess. That’s what I did and I was happy with the results.
