IHxB01xRAW Beatle Buster 18oz Raw Japanese Selvage Denim Indigo

[georgeel]

3-4 hours in hot water inside-out.
Some people use a few of mild soap, but I never tried that.

Usually, after a soak, I wear them not completely rinsed. Not still wet, but a little damp.

[georgeel]

I wanna say that I'm really really glad with my BBRAW!
Denim  is incredible, cut is amazing, fit is super! Thank you Giles, thank you Beatle and - obviously - thanks to Haraki-san, who made all this possible!

George
the fit is spot on.

Also good idea to wear them damp. I noticed that when I had soaked my 634S's. Helps to create combs, and eases stretching, especially pockets. Now I can ge tmy hands in front ones, and there is enough room for my wallet…

[georgeel]

WARNING: They stretch a lot! And it happens quickly, in a few hours of worn. Just as the 666s, so to size down is required.

Wow, that's some stretch.  Georgeel, great info for us prospective IHXB01XRAW buyers.  Thank ya man!

[kit99bar]

for those that have these jeans, how much shrinkage in the thigh, knee and hem would we get with a hot soak?

[Giles]

same ratio as waist shrinkage

[LC_Miey]

For those who are thinking about the sizing on 18oz, I'd say dont worry about the shrinkage evethough they are tight presoak. My size 29 was very snug presoak, however after warm soak and one warm prewash, the denim has soften up and stretch effortlessly. I just been wearing mine for about 3-4 times and they have stretched out equal or bit past raw measurement..

Cant say about other people experience with them, but that is what I experience with 18oz devils and BB raw..
