Choose which advice you want IJ, but the advice I gave you is Haraki's

@Giles:

No more than 30.  Wash inside out and  do not spin them, let them air dry….

this is exactly the way to go…btw. prewash fit is already perfect!

[ALEX1976]

I PUT MINE IN MACHINE AND THIS WAS NOT A GOOD IDEA!
I HAVE SOME WASHING MARKERS OM THE DENIM….THE DENIM IS TO STIFF IN MY OPINION TO WASH IN A MACHINE!
BUT IT IS YOUR DECISION;-)

OK

I want to get all shrinkage out to be able to hem 'em,

and 'cause I'm stubborn it's gonna be 40, and I'll have to see if I manage to get them out before the washing machine boogie…(and ofcourse inside out)

To my knowledge these have been soaked once. and they are just jawns, right

Alex, I don't own a bathtub. I have Sauna.

maybe you haven`t turned them inside out and/or you also gave them a spin eh?

[madmonday]

follow the advice of the one's that actually own the jawns & have been wearing them . . . but yeah they are just jawns. . . that you take pictures of & ask advice on washing & such, but they are just jawns, hahahahahahahaha

[vespr1198s]

the fit on those are perfect just as they are

[injunjack]

shrinkage in lenght…

Monday, you got me

[van Olzon]

mine did shrink 1,6" in the lenght after one hour warm soak (30°C) …
didn't washed them yet ...

[jacoavlu]

mine survived a machine wash just fine
as well as a hard scrubbing with a gong brush
they fit you well IJ. Enjoy

[Blackheart]

Machine wash on 40 inside out and hang to dry, those look great on you IJ!

[madmonday]

jaco you scrubbed your annies with one of these

you bad, bad boy

Sauna…...of course, you are Finnish.  A buddy of mine is of the same heritage/ethnicity and he told me all Finns have a sauna somewhere in the house.  It is part of their lifestyle ::)
BTW, the jeans look great on you already.  You might want to put a block in the waist to prevent it from shrinking too much.  But then again, they will stretch back out in no time.  Fit pics when done of course.

yep
I got them real dirty
and they didn't come clean with a soak and machine wash
so I figured wtf and took the gong to em
with some bronners eucalyptus
did the trick
now wearing my Warehouse for the real dirty stuff

Mine went from a 31 waist to a 28 after soaking in near boiling water

[LC_Miey]

^^ and you managed to stretch the waist back?  dammn you strong

[kit99bar]

I put it on wet and did up 1 button, did squats, did up 2 buttons.  the whole process took an hour and I was exhausted afterwards lol.  It's at 30.5 now and fits great

Just a quick sizing question on the SRs.

Went into Self Edge and tried on the regular 634S. I found a size 31 fits me absolutely perfect, however when I tried on a 32 for reference, it seemed the jean changed tremendously – dramatically looser all around. Seeing as the SRs are considered to be baggier but are unsanforized, how would you guys recommend sizing?

Also, you guys don't think there's a chance that these are shipped out one wash? Just want to make sure I'm getting a raw pair.

Thanks in advance. I am new to the Iron Heart game

Hi drew, SR's shrink to tag size once they're soaked. If you buy a 31 they will shrink to a 31 but SR's are cut
bigger in the top block and are a looser fit than the 634's.
All new SR's are unwashed unless stated, if you want to be sure drop them an e-mail.

Welcome to the forum!

[drewmanji]

Thanks for the welcome

With all that being said. How would you recommend sizing the SR in order to achieve the same fit as a 31 in the 634S ?
