                    Here's a bit of a noob question:
                    When hot washed/ soaked, the rise will shrink a bit...but is this an area that will also stretch back out with wear? I pay so much attention to the other measurements, but this is one I'm not as sure about.

                    In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                      Depends upon how well hung you are I guess......

                      • Sanforized, but unwashed - expect approximately one inch shrinkage in the waist and inseam
                      • Other dimensions will shrink proportionately to the waist
                      • The waist will stretch out approximately one inch with wear
                      • All other dimensions under pressure will have a tendency to stretch back to pre-soak/wash size

                          I do find that the rear rise stretches for me, because of my ASSets. Front rise not so much.

                                I can see why @Giles wasnt able to field this one as he has zero personal experience.

                                      Haha. Love this convo!!
                                      Well, I ask because I’m looking at a pair of grail to me XHSbb in 555 that should have started at 16.2 in the rear rise but now are at 15 after a soak. Love me a higher rise and wondering if they’ll make their way back to that 16 inches with wear.

                                        I think an inch of rise stretch is unlikely. There’s not as much strain on that axis as the waist, and it’s a felled seam. You could invent some sort of hack like the car jack waist stretching system seen elsewhere on the forum, but rise isn’t a circle so some engineering chops would be necessary.

                                          An inch of shrinkage in the rise sounds a little off to me. It’s possible the measurement could be wrong or done slightly differently than recommended. If all the other measurements are in line I’d have to assume the rise would be fine. I have literally never considered or taken a rose measurement. In my experience if the waist and the thighs are ok than everything else fails into place. But as ever, my word is pure conjecture.
