Shrinking-

After my DSB 1942 in 33 were too tight in 33, I got them in 36.
After a hot soak and now two cold washes they fit quite well everywhere except for the waist, where they are too wide with still 94cm or so instead of my normal ca. 90cm.

Would you rather wash at 40, 50 or 60C to shrink them more?
I normally never use the drier but might do so in this case.
Any experiences/suggestions?

I've never washed jeans warmer than 40C and have never used a drier.
So I was a bit worried about what might happen to the denim.

I first washed them in 60C. They shrunk a bit, but not enough.
I then put them in the drier, highest temperature for about 15 minutes.
Now they shrunk more, just right.
From about 47.5 to about 45cm.
The patch dried up a bit from both, but not much.
The denim is basically the same as before.

@Dr_Heech @nick682 I wear size 31 in warehouse. I’m sure at least one of my pairs has four button on the fly plus the waistband. I’ll check later today after work.

That's fine don't worry. Saw a pair of sz 32's on their site and they had four fly buttons. Won't be buying them anyway certainly not at 260 quid plus whatever import taxes etc as well (l thought originally they were 200ish). Got stung pretty harsh on my last imported denim with import duties.

They look great and all but l will have to wait until your forthcoming buckleback photo-bomb and live vicariously through you instead mate.

 

Dr,

I know you're all set but here's a pick of the fly. These have a decently high rise of 11" for a sz 33 waist.

Thanks @crownzip The denim looks great!

I left the tag on my 25th 1950s so Ill probably leave this one too.  Here's a pic of the 1950s:

 

I wore my pair a little bit more this year 

They're great jeans

Really tempted by these Hinoya exclusive 1941 DSB model despite owning the CSF 1941 model already. I need another pair of bucklebacks like l need a hole in the head. Luckily l'm a bit skint atm and when l do finally get round to having a bit of disposable income, they will probably be sold out in my size 😁

A cool pair.
Of the elusive period 40-42 (or 41-42?) with that reversed yoke.

A little slimmer than the 37 it seems.

What denim is your CSF 41 made of?

I joined the club. Couldn't resist...
