soak or no soak?

[Young King]

Just got some raw diors (grey) and I was wondering if I was suppose to do a cold soak, thanks.

[fndmybetterhalf]

the greys arent raw...so its not necessary.

and no dior's really need a soak since they are all sanforized to begin with.

oh great, that goes for ALL diors, cuz I have more that I always considered soaking.

i just got these, i think the fit is pretty good, i wanna say they're about 1/2 inch too big in the waist.

i really wanna keep all the indigo/stiffness i can, should I just do a hot soak of the waist for about an hour?

here's the fit..lemme know what you think.

thanks

I would personally soak them to get the starch off..

I prefer to set the whiskers and honey combs while the jeans are still damp...

just personal preference though..

if i do a cold soak for an hour with no agitation do you think that'd be sufficient to shrink them a tiny bit and keep the indigo?

Could someone kill this thread and could the participants please put the questions in the "small questions" sticky?
