Agree with Giles.  They'll soften up in no time!  Just beat em into submission!

[mclaincausey]

I've not washed mine ever but they were soft when I received them.

[Anesthetist]

Beat the snot out of em, they will be soft soon enough!

Anyone know where I could buy this cotton in balk??

[Giles]

The cotton or the denim?

If the cotton, I don't know.  If the denim, it can't be.

They get harder after a wash, for about 2-3 wears, then go back to uber soft. It's just like they want to remind you who's really boss. Well that's how I interpret it anyhow.

I switch this morning to IH-803, still 5°c on the bike this morning … and i feel clearly more the freshness of the air  than with the thick 634s, no matter the double knee.

Understood; my point is on the "remind"; mine were supple, pliant, and soft from the jump. I'll be interested if a new stuff characteristic emerges post wash.

I got you, I was trying to be a little silly, but truthful at the same time. Mine felt as soft as a baby's bottom the day I got them, but still go all hard ass if washed 1.5 years later.

Gotcha. I'm happy to know this.
