Hi Guys,
recently I've become a happy owner of an IH-666SB in size 33".
My first pair of IH and my first experience with heavy denim.
And I must confess it's amazing!
Otherwise this is my second pair of "quality jeans", so I'm quite a newbie in this "raw denim scene".
I'm aware the jeans are sanforized, but I'd like to know what can I expect from a hot soak?
A bit of shrinkage in every direction would be nice, especialy lengthwise and "crotchwise"?
Probably I should read this forum more deeply, but I couldn't find answere so far.
I appreciate any advice & thank You in advance.

Hi boldisi! 666SB? Do you mean 666S-BK? Either way, checking the product page is always wise. If it's the 21oz denim in one or another variation then it won't shrink if you boil it

Ah, of course. Forgot about them and the codes get confusing.

The duck pocket bags on my Roy SF01s (my original pair) stink. So bad that I smell them when wearing them. I think it has to do with the time it takes the pockets to air dry (I always hang dry inside out).

I have tried scrubbing the pockets, soaking them and they still stink. The jeans are fine it's only the front pockets. Should I try soaking in vinegar? Anyone have any other suggestions?

[JCMx800]

Do you have a washing machine?

[veloaudio]

Yes, I've washed them several times. I really think the hang dry is the problem but I don't want to put them in the dryer.
