  1. the jeans were size 34, and measured 38 in the waist, so theyve shrunk to 36.

    i suppose you could say theyve shrunk to the size on the label, but its kind of missing the point. I really wanted to know what sanforized actually means, and its effect from washing, so I will not make future mistakes

    thanks all the same

  2. Bought the EDWIN ED-47 125 999 rainbow selvedge raw denim from Grandism.

    they were listed as Sanforized, which I have been told means they wont shrink

    They got incredibly filthy, and they cant be dry cleaned, so I put in a cold wash and they shrunk about 2" in the waist, as well as going lighter and losing much of their shine.

    have i been misinformed as to what sanforized mean, or have they been wrongly listed?

    thanks for answering these naive questions

  3. alright fellas,

    bit of a raw denim 'newbie' so please resist scornful and sarcastic remarks...

    just got some DH jeans, Made In Italy, appear to be raw, 21cm

    problem is they are size 36 (im quite a big lad) but they are too big. If i wash these will they shrink, and by how much? What would happen to the fabric?

    thanks for your answers and patience

    cheers
