Max, yours is the winner for me so far.

green selvage was also something I tought about. But I wanted something they could put together really fast (I know it's all a dream here).

selvage fly sounds great! gotta add that to "my" pair ;)

So, I purchased a couple of firsts on Saturday...First pair of Sammys and First pair of raws. I decided that these were interesting 17oz LTD ED S5000GX-K Wind Element Model

Picked them up from BIG. I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with the or the other Element Models? I plan on doing a hot soak and hang dry. Do you think that would be sufficient or should I toss them in the dryer? Thanks for any advice/input!!

Posted
^Thanks Max....I was pretty sure, but it's always nice to verify!

You bought the sz 30 right? I was thinking of buying that same pair/sz and saw it was gone. Do you mind posting some pre/post soak pics? It will help me decide to pull the trigger or not.

to assure you. A soak (or two) and hang dry is enough for the first step. BUT if you still find the pair to be too big, a machine wash is another option. Dryer should only be the last option

^more good advice!..thank you. I'm not that worried about the waist or thighs, but Gordon hemmed them to 34.5". I'm a little worried about the length. I wanted the no longer than 32" after it's all done. He said I can always mail the back to be hemmed some more if they are too long for my liking.

^lol...yep, that was me. I'll see what i can do to get some pics up for you. I should get them tomorrow.

thanks, and congrats on the purchase. great choice for a first.
