IH-555-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo/Black
-
Ok guys, the heavyweight package is out for delivery !!
I plan to do the hot soak, followed by an immediate machine wash to get all the shrink out.Regarding this machine wash, it would be 30°, but what "cycle" do you guys use ? normal agitation or some sort of delicate program ? With the jeans alone (since the machine detects weight) it would be a 1 hour wash.
And would you do spinning at 400 RPM or none ? I don't mind if it takes longer to dry, but if 400 RPM doesn't hurt, why not...Cheers !

@Slash Gentle cycle, no spin. Safest option unless you don't mind marbling.
Getting mine today too it seems. -
@Slash
don’t forget to turn them inside out , and I would recommend no spin not even 400 rpm -
Haha received mine today. I can't belive how much stiffer they are compared to the regular XHS. Looking awesome though. Before and after soaking/washing measurements coming tomorrow.
-
Lol received mine too ! All the things that were said before were no understatements. I'm shocked
Honestly, even more kudos to the guys who choose to buy this fitting from the start, I don't think I could. My pair might prove a bit big in the long run but we'll see; anyway I could not size down this thing
I will do the washing thing tomorrow and reports some measurements for future buyers
When dry, so Monday probably 
Why are (my) thumbs so fragile man ?
-
Got mine today and my thumbs are just destroyed. lol
-
my poor thumbs...it hurts so good! pics to come soon!
-
@Slash They will fit perfect I think, let us know
-
I successfully held off on these... Whew. And those 35's were available for a while! Congratulations to everyone who grabbed them! My second favorite cut. My favorite is on the way though...
I'm going to ride my 21oz OD 555 as my dark 555. -
@Slash They will fit perfectly after you soak for at least an hour in super hot water, and/or a machine wash, hottest setting, inside out, no spin, hang dry.
