SEXIHXINDO16 Unsanforized 19oz Indigo Selvedge Denim
-
These pics always make me feel like I did something wrong - I have these in a 36 and the waist fits pretty well, maybe .5-1" big but not baggy – and yet these are the most relaxed fit pair I own.
Washed them with very hot water, twice, to get out all the shrinkage... not sure what the heck happened - don't think I could have squeezed into the 34 waist. Rant over - thanks.

As I understand these are quite like the SEXIH07, denim is similar correct? My pair of SEXIH07 started a bit like Simon's but kept shrinking for about a year (3 washes or so). The waist ended up somewhere around 30.5" (tagged 32) and the thighs ended up quite tight. The front rise also ended up much lower than I expected.
In my experience w/ this denim, it does take a while to get all the shrink out. But it fades really fast… much faster than my 21oz 634's.

Makes me regret (again) that I couldn't wear mine. Beautiful wear on those.

^wonderful pair.

So I've been really wanting a pair and my buddy is selling a pair only worn twice for 250. however, the left leg has some serious twisting. Did anyone else experience that with their pair? Did a soak help settle it out? thanks.

^^^thanks for the quick reply and education. Does it eventually settle a bit with wear? They will be acquired!

Indeed! I got a chance to try them on and check out the denim. The softest 19 oz denim I've ever handled. My 301s's are soft too at 21 oz but too slim for me now considering those are from the first run ever some years ago.

They are settling, that is what happens to raw denim.
