Well, I got some decent wear over the holiday (Thanksgiving - US) and finally got these shrunk down to where I want. This makes 3 hot washes, no soap, and one hot dry. The hot dry produced the highly anticipated leg twist. They no longer need to be hemmed either!

I've treated the patch with Lexol, but the printing is starting to crack and the size is nearly gone.

Suit and tie every day. I'm new around here and probably more of an askandy kind of guy, but couldn't resist the lure of a contest. I guess I'll be living for the weekend with you lot.
