        Hey Lando…how did that soak turn out ? I admit that I´m a sucker for raw denim..always love to witness how a nice hot soak transforms fit and feel of the denim..

        Beats, The soak turned out alright. Decided I didn't want to measure pre/ post but rather just soak, hang dry and wear. I will post up some pictures soon, but it is still a little long for my taste. I think it may have to get another soak tonight or tomorrow…

        DEP, Thanks for the compliment man. Actually wearing them right now!

                Okay so after the third hot soak and a dry under the heat lamp my FH 7001 finally feels like it fits. I am however confused on the measurements. Below I will post Giles' measurements from the FH UK site: http://www.flat-head.co.uk/html/7001.html as well as the measurements I just took. You will see why I am confused…

                FH UK Measurements (FH 7001)(44):
                Shoulders - 19.5"
                Pit to Pit - 22.5"
                Arm - 25"
                Length - 31"

                My 3rd Post-Soak Measurements (FH 7001)(44):
                Shoulders - 19.5"
                Pit to Pit - 23"
                Arm - 25"
                Length - 30.75

                I am now wishing that I took my own measurements when the shirt arrived here. I am wondering how it is possible that the shoulders did not shrink at all, the chest grew .5 an inch, the arm didn't shrink at all, the length only shrunk a .25 inch... All after 3 hots soaks and now it fits better???? WTF? Thoughts are more than welcome...

                  I wish you had taken the specs when it was raw…

                  There's always a minor difference of size specs on paper and real product - and depending on the water itself every soak will turn out a bit different..

                  what matters is that it fits now....

                                Please help me decide, I want to buy second pair of jeans to rotate with 634sr in coming summer. Free Bandana is nice and 14.5 oz denim probably better 16 oz in summer, but I can’t stand zipper fly. Or 16oz not that much heavier? Or zipper not that bad as I think?
                                What to do?  ???

                                    634sr is my first pair of proper Japanese denim and I got nothing to compare really. I don’t want to be greedy (as usual hehe) and suffer in 16oz in summer and at the same time scared by the bloody zipper.
                                    Atm in 634sr when I wear them is like working out in gym lol. Running up the stairs and skipping one step in underground is a bit of a challenge. 😉

                                      well - it will be super nice and hairy after the initial soak - it has a super high potential for contrast fades and vertical falling, it feels a bit rougher than the 14,5 oz 3xxx they use for the 3001 7380 and stuff –super dark indigo - and I don´t find them too hot for in the summer

                                        I have both the 3005 (not the Z, but the cut and the denim is the same) and the 1005.  Marginal difference in the feel of the denim.  Both feel like gauze compared to the 634SR!

                                          I wouldn´t go that far. Once worn in a lot softer and lighter - but it´s still a substantial denim
