IH-555-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo
-
My pair didn’t shrink nearly as much as I expected, even when washed at 40 degrees after a hot soak with agitation.
-
Heck yes. Wearing today at work because I was too excited to wait to soak, but I’ll give them a hot soak tonight. Loving the feel of this denim right out of the gate - especially in the frozen Chicago tundra!

@V-P did you get any noticeable shrinkage in the thighs? if so, do you feel like they stretched back out to pre-soak? that was really my only concern. current state (pre-soak) they feel pretty perfect. i'm totally capable of some discomfort en route back to a pre-soak fit!
-
@indigo_nico. From my experience with multiple IH-25XHS the only thing that doesn't come back to pre soak measurements is any shrinkage in the length the shrinkage innthe width always came back
-
@indigo_nico Yes, they shrunk in the thighs. Not sure if they are back where they were but they are wider now than after washing.

Thoughts appreciated. Should I get these hemmed or not? Normally I'd get them hemmed, don't like cuffs unless very tapered. I'd like the stacks at bottom but don't want them at the knees. Only 3rd day of wear. Slightly more bunched up with boots on as well.
Thanks!

@CosmoSix5 A trick with new jeans and stacks is to pull them on and then push down from the knee to the shoe/boot. It will get rid of the denim bunching up at the knee. After a few weeks the jeans will have settled to stack better from the knee down.
-
@goosehd done. Thanks.

Question. I did a warm soak and wore these till dry. Because of my tub and my size/height the waistband didn't get to soaked. Two questions, can I soak again this time fully submerged in warmer water to tighten up the waist and the real problem, the highlighted areas in the photo.
2. We're going to the ocean next week, what are the benefits/risks of hopping in the surf with them on?
-
Not sure where you are, but pretty sure if you're going to go surf in salt water it wont be kind to your jeans. Sure, you can "soak" them again and agitate to get some shrinkage, but might just stretch back out again after a few wears...
-
Just soak them and hang to dry, no need to wear them wet. They will stretch where they need to, it might take a couple days but the results will be better.
