yep, make sure u dont agitate in anyway

[whozdrew?]

I'm actually kind of pissed. These shrank a shitload

[Eyeq8402]

^ how many soaks? How much did they shrink?

[whozdrew?]

One cold soak for like 45 minutes. They're too tight now. If I can't get them to stretch back out. Off to the marketplace. Fuck, I'm pissed

[Eyeq8402]

^what model what size may I ask:)?

[PeterParker]

Calm down. The 1XXX denim stretches quite a bit with wear, like back to the raw measurements, and maybe even more.

The indigo SEXFH05 jeans were made from the same denim and many people had issues with them stretching too much. Based on those experiences I sized down on my 1001, although I have yet to soak or wear mine so I cannot comment on my experience.

From your presoak fit, I'd say they should fit spot-on now. Unless you wanted a looser fit, in which case the 1001 is the wrong cut for you...

[whozdrew?]

^what model what size may I ask:)?

They're 1001s size 32

@PeterParker

Thanks for the input. I'll wear them around for a few weeks or whatever. Hopefully they'll stretch back out. Like I said, the presoak was perfect.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

when presoak was perfect, you should have sized up one and then shrink them probably...

After all STF means shrink to fit, not stretch to fit

[ThinFinn]

since i`m so happy with the black one i thought i should also go for the blue one...love it!

[shoreman]

I love that blue, Rafa. Imo, you can't score a more solid T than TFH.

[alexx1976]

great shirt rafa-blue is burner

nothing more to say...thanks!

[whozdrew?]

The 1001s are slowly growing on me. Stretched out a bit, but hopefully I get a little more out of them

[mitchL]

they should be fine, my brother had a pair back in 2008, he went tts and a couple weeks later wished he sized down by atleast 1 size

[meego]

i went TTS with my 1001's, ive got big thighs and calves and theyre pretty snug after the soak

they will stretch out a bit after a bit of wear

[appfaff]

Christmas came a little early for me today...

I always wanted one of these TFH Houndstooth shirts. Had to grab it when I saw it in my size at DC4

Love the selvedge line all the way up the shirt

Chainstitched sides.. No run off, but still a nice touch:

I also grabbed some 3005s. Looking for a relaxed fit. Achieved

These should be perfect after the soak

Sorry for the dark pics. still trying to find a good spot to take photos

[vittel]

bsp at 9 months

[appfaff]

@Vittel, those BSPs are loking great! Gotta love that wallet fade. Those are going to turn out awesome

Little post soak fit of my 3005s from today (More of a silhouette really,ha):

I'll be sure to take some better ones soon. my camera dosn't want to pic up much light these days haha

Some measurements...even though I know these still have a lot of shrinkage left in them. One hot soak for an hour and hang dry

sz. 36 Pre-Soak / Post-Soak:

Waist: 37 / 35

Thigh: 13.25 / 12.5

Front Rise: 11.8 / 11.4

Back Rise: 16.6 / 15.6

Inseem: 37 / 35.5

Leg Opening: 10 / 9.75

[MetalFingers]

Quick little question: how do the thighs in the SEXFHXRJB15 fit? Thigh measurements at SE make it seem that it will be a bit tight after the hot soak...

Wouldn't mind seeming some fit pics as well.

They fit pretty well. Not too skinny, but not loose. Just the perfect amount of slim for me. I have some fit pics here but I'm already rather slim, so I might not be the best example. These are after a few weeks of wearing them, but as of right now (4 months in) they've conformed a lot to my legs, if that makes sense...

[MetalFingers]

Ahh saw your fit pics already in this thread. Was hoping to see post-wash pics, but still appreciate the help. Did you go TTS or size down?

Calf looks a bit awkward which, besides the thighs, was also another concern.

[klimek135]

Just threw the BSPs in the wash!

[ashkaun]

@metalfingers

these are mine. post soak. but i haven't put much wear into them at all.

[ThinFinn]

great to see you around mate...

Well I gave them a pre-soak, if that's what you wondering. Should have (hopefully) gotten out all/most of the shrinkage. I went TTS.

[appfaff]

great to see you around mate...

Thanks dude! Yeah, it's been a crazy year or so, but I figured it was time to start back at it

[ThinFinn]

^great idea ...now post all these evo pics during that year

[alexx1976]

[appfaff]

lame work fit from today, but a MUCH better pic of the 3005s post soak and a couple days of wear.
