[Jordan23]

Well done buddy!

[RocknRoll]

Great pics Finn and Flash, although you're not helping me decide between the 710XX and 0500XX.

Both look awesome!

[Dirty Denim]

Man are MaxPowers pair serious lookin

[Dirty Denim]

Got my pair today..Fit pics on the way soon

[Finn666]

have you soaked them at all?…somehow they still look like "raw" to me, since they are still a bit shiny (the starch that is!) in that pic with the flash turned on!...
fits a nice one though...no matter if pre- or postsoak (though you may have some problems if this is presoak!)...

[Dirty Denim]

not yet..I wanted to soak them early  so i can lay them out during the day…How much do u think they'll shrink in the waist?  I figured they would go down to a measured 33 or so.

Stan,  I like the way jeans look when they are worn for awhile and they have stretched out a lot

[Finn666]

IIRC then these going to shrink like 2" in the waist, though they will stretch 1" again…the only "problems" i could see with your fit is the thigh area and maybe the inseam length...i don´t think you´re able to cuff them after the soak!
i would go for a wash (without detergent) instead of a soak, so that almost all shrinkage is gone from the start so you don´t need to worry for more shrinkage to happen after the 2nd or 3rd wash...

[Dirty Denim]

I hope they wont shrink 2 cause then they will be up for sale for sure lol  i mean i can fit 2 fingers in the waist so maybe it'll be ok.  Plus i plan on working out again so my waist should trim down a bit as it is a bit fat lol

[Dirty Denim]

They are soaking now in faucet hot water…ill leave em in there for an hour...That should be ok right?

yeah that´s ok as well…after 30min. i´d add some hot tap water again, too make sure that the water isn´t too cold after the full 60minutes...
two fingers space?...your waist could be cut in half after the soak...but let´s wait and see the results!

[Dirty Denim]

just did the hot water re up half way home

[Flash]

The waist will stretch back to raw measurement so you should be fine , iirc I got about 2.5 inches of shrinkage from the inseam after a few hot soaks

[Dirty Denim]

That might be the actual problem then…I went with a 33 which is usually ok but i totally didn't think the inseam would shrink that much...Fingers are crossed

[Flash]

You could allways stretch the inseam by hand , you could possibly get back half an inch back . Bear in mind that  these won't shrink fully with a single hot soak

that´s why i´ve suggested to wash instead of doing a "normal" soak!…crossing fingers but i already see these up in the marketplace!...
