Since denimbro seems to be a ghost-town, I thought I might post here about my recently purchased 1890s. Theyre the MIJ/Kaihara, size 36x32. When I got them in early-mid July, they were monstrously sized on me. I decided to do a soak in a tub of hot water while wearing them, and i got an inch of shrinkage in the inseam, and very little elsewhere on them. I did a nice west coast multi state trip and wore them every single day, and today I wondered if there was a way to get the last of the shrinkage out. machine washed hot, laid out to dry in 92 degree Fahrenheit weather, and just put them back on. I am absolutely shocked at how much more shrinkage was left in them. Prior to the hot tub soak. the waist measured 38", and post wash they were 34.5", but through wearing them just this afternoon, I am at 36". the inseam had only lost 1" during the hot soak, but after the hot wash, they are down to 29.5". For me, I am very shocked that I lost an inch in both the back and front rise. This size 36 now has a 12" front rise, which is fine, but i really liked the near 14" rise before soak. Otherwise, post hot wash, the texture of the denim has improved and seemingly come alive from the 'flat' dry/rigid state. With the still higher rises, the jean now fits like a pair of trousers. Anyone else have a pair of newer MIJ 1890 that had a similar experience? -

Is this the same fabric they used for their inspiration release? -
Ooof really nice pair. Unfortunately I can't do exposed back rivets so I'll have to skip on these like I did the black S&S 10th's 🥲 but hopefully someone gets a pair I an live vicariously through
