right...the ones with a zipper are sanforized

They are unsanforizedand every LVC jeans I know has a tag where it says "unwashed" and there's also a size-guide printed on it. It even says size one up for the jackets

you can buy LVCs with an inseam from 32 to 40. at least here in Europe

to correct you Atzec. Sign in and order till the 30th of June

I'll go with my true size for the 66xx. But only because they are slimmer at the thigh. For the xx I would size down 1 from my true waist.

Are you interested in the contest?

have you already seen the contest? join it!

if the soak leads to stains you can easily wash them away

I wash in the machine with cold (30-40°C) water and no detergent at all. It's a front loading machine. Then a spin cycle to dry them a bit and at last hang dry.

Denime...and you could join the contest!

Take5 still have to order from Denime to fiill their stock. So yes, ORDER NOW!

what couch do you own?

yeah sorry...I meant horizontal.

and the combs will be very narrow, like this:

I rely on Atzec's measurements which are a bit smaller pre-soak than the one from BiG. I go true to size so tag size 34. Those will shrink to approx. 33inch and then I'll stretch the hell out of it.

That's what Gordon says about post-soak:

After 2 hot soaks and a hang dry the shrinkage was as follows:

Denime 66XX Size 34 pre/post soak

Waist 35"/34"

Front rise 11.25"/10.75²

Back rise 15²/14.5²

Upper thigh 13"/12.5²

Knee 9.5²/9²

Leg Opening 8.5²/7.75²

Inseam 37"/35.25²

I'm expecting more shrinkage with a hot wash/tumble dry, about another 1" in

the waist and inseam and possibly another 1/4" or so in the rise and leg

width.

yes...tighter jeans leads to tighter honeycombs. if you've got skin tight jeans you'll get vertical combs

me too!

keep us updated! I'll ask him about size 34.

If it's you slim for your liking kino, you can always switch the XX-type.

Does Gordon has more measurements after soaking?

e.g. in my size?! (size 34)

best do a hot soak...then most shrinkage is gone. you can stretch the waist back when wet or put something in the waist area to prevent the waist from shrinking. or wear them while soaking if you can stand the heat

if you never wanna wash them...

they'll shrink up to 10%. so after washing they might be too tight and all the wear patterns are shifted to a new,wrong place.

with a first soak you take out most of the shrinkage and you're on the safer side

SLAB refered to the "comming soon" although the pair is already released.

but I guess he didn't notice the typo

is there anything you can do to decrease fade time?

buying a pre-wash

And I'm convinced by Atzec's measurements of his size 34 he posted over at mynudies.com

very nice!

looking forward to their progress.

+rep

there's no deadline anymore because the XX-type is allowed,too. so you've got some time to get the 6 dollars

ups...typo..I meant post-soak..just fixed it
