Hmm... those were the kind of measurements I was hoping mine would shrink to. Guess mine need another hot soak, wash, and hour in the dryer.

[Pi-tol]

Yeah, I put them in the dryer 3x

1. 16 mins

2. 24 mins

3. 24 mins

[JayFourEyes]

I think wash/soak x 2 or even more is the way to get the most shrinkage and starch out.

[ranonranonarat]

great fit jay, its a perfect picture.

Last update before going to Thailand for 2 months... Its Really cold in Sweden and going backbacking is just the right thing to get away from the cold and cheer one self up! Will put alot of sweat in them there hopefully!! have worn em everyday since i got em and really love these!

Everyone has really good fits and i think its going to be a great many pair of Eternals after this competition.

A question: How to put Beatles Awsoome banner as my signature? it says cant use img as signature for me

[ranonranonarat]

you're going to have a terrible time in thailand after coming out from cold weather but you'll see amazing results in that 2 months of wear man!

[beatle]

yes, def. gonna give you a head start into the contest..btw, I think sufu regulated signatures / only super small possible, which I've tried ( 19kb is what you are allowed and the smallest size I tried was 13,7kb and it still wouldn't save it, so I guess no more banners and pics in sig..)

[joelz]

thanks to all for the compliments/rep - this is an amazingly sick cut of denim, and I'm hoping everyone can destroy them!

[ranonranonarat]

what a waste beatle. no wonder it didnt work the other day when i was trying to fit it into my sig. nonetheless i have saved it and resized to make good use of it. hope you dont mind.

[JacoBlue]

Yea hopefully ill get them really disgustingly dirty and stuff like the way sweat and grim dirt affects the white in the weft

[beatle]

Not at all, Ran

[not too tight]

[GupNasty]

Pre-ordered a 29 (TTS). Aww yayuh, can't wait!

That is some shrinking..

[sweapea]

I just blew through this thread! Such awesome fits everyone!

God I am absurdly late getting these up, but here's my pair......]

Not nearly as bad as I am!

I really have to spend more time here

A very late check-in - will post fit pics once I get a chance to soak them!

[mlyngard]

gave mine a third hot soak to hope they shrink another inch in the inseam. will start wearing these soon..

My 811s only saw about 2" of inseam shrink with a hot soak and wash. I resorted to the dryer, which actually didn't do much more. I ended up sending them back in for another hem.

[Alex3000]

My jeans are finally done!!! Can't wait to wear these things to the whites.

[ranonranonarat]

My 811s only saw about 2" of inseam shrink with a hot soak and wash. I resorted to the dryer, which actually didn't do much more. I ended up sending them back in for another hem.

i decided to stick with double cuffs. screw it man, now what is bothering me are the massive kneebags. shite!

[morse9443]

I just got mine back from a hem, and they still have extra length that's making kneebags too. Might just cuff them highwater style, seems to help. No stacks for me.

Sucky pics, but cuffed or uncuffed?

[dave023]

Both are nice!

[Farhad]

Cuffed looks pretty sick morse. I dig the high water.

I was thinking on re-heming mine as well, but I don't think I will. I'm digging the fat cuffs.

[-Z-]

updated fit pic...x-post from WAYWT

best. jeans. ever.

[ranonranonarat]

im digging the cuffed look as well morse.

[SLAB]

my vote goes to the cuffs also but uncuffed looks good too

[beatle]

I might already have won this contest - in the category "biggest size screw ups"

LOL..

these are like 2 sizes too big, but what the hell, gonna soak and see what happens. If not - 30 or 31 who want to trade for 32 - holler..

[morse9443]

the irony...you're swimming in those beatle. Shoot for max shrinkage and keep your fingers crossed, or start an all candy and pasta diet..

and cuffed it is for me, thanks gentlemen
