thanks for your update chris…looks great for one month in!
also this reminds me of shooting some pics for my 2month update!...

[crisone]

Thanks Finn…

I just took them out and they're hangin as we speak, they went through a spin cycle (which I forgot if I was suppose to do or not), so they should be hopefully dry by days end, for sure tomorrow though, then back on my legs.

if there´s any major difference after the wash it would be nice if you could post those pics as well! think you´re the first one who washed his pair…

[Blackheart]

Great pics cris, mine will be washed again this Friday ( 3rd wash in hot water, full cycle ) then off
to SELA to get shortened finally.

[crisone]

Will do….and I think Blackheart and injun did it this way too, correct me if I'm wrong.

Cris.

[Blackheart]

Yes IJ and myself did the hot machine wash and it worked great!

[Finn666]

great looking pair you have there kit…since the weather is nice I'll try and take some pics today!

[Blackheart]

Those are looking great kit!

[thomasnunnally]

yea kit, I am enjoying that wallet fade.  So is that contrast somewhat exaggerated by lighting?

[kit99bar]

thanks guys.  not sure why but I only got a few big whiskers instead of a bunch.  oh well, it shall be pretty!

[crisone]

Alrighty, my outcome…..

So I did a Hot/Cold (what's indicated on my machine) wash for about 16 min. including the Spin Cycle (was I suppose to take it out prior to this??), hung dry and pretty much completely dried this morning.  I'm wearing them right now and the fit is not what I was expecting, I was expecting it to be snugger on my thigh/but area and hard to button, but it seems as if I didn't do the wash, if anything, it probably shrank a little, but not to the extant that I wanted.

I'm going to check to see it there's a hotter setting on my machine, then re-wash in another month.

I'll post fit pics later.

^i really thought there would be more shrinkage going on! try to wash them at 60°C and try to dry them really fast/hot since this is the way you´ll get max.shrinkage!

i´ve overslept the great weather today so here are just some 2 month evo teaser pics…more/better ones will follow on saturday!

Can you do a hot/hot on your machine? If not maybe a local laundromat might have a machine
with that setting.
Mine shrank but are still a bit loose in the butt/thigh area too, waist is fine though. All I can
hope for is that they'll keep shrinking over time with future washes.
