@illdatu:

Any way we can see the size chart before release date?

They can’t put a size chart up it until the have measured the jeans. It will be released before the jeans are up for sale. Normally the day before, sometimes a few hours before.

Given that this is a Monday release it may be the same day. My guess is they only arrived in Gosport recently.

Any idea how much shrinkage we can expect in the waist and thigh?

[AdamJ]

Approx 1" in the waist which we'd expect to stretch back to pre-soak size. Not as much in the thigh but I'd expect that to stretch back to pre-soak over time with consistent wear

Thanks, Adam. I did see that on the details tab but I was wondering if we had any personal experience with it. Like if anyone had posted pre and post measurements.

On the 555XHSBB thread, I saw that Jett hot washed and dried his and barely got any shrink.

@Paul9221 on my 777xhsbb I got .3in on thigh and 1 inch on waist.

Oh, thanks!  That's shrink?  Is that after a soak or wash?

[Nskelton]

1 hot soak. Considering doing another measurements/hot soak soon ish.

Thanks!  That helps a lot.

Okay, I'm a wee nervous but I ended up picking this up with a 31.9" waist and a 13" thigh.  I'm hoping to get that 0.3" shrink in the thigh and I can handle a 1" shrink in the waist.

I'll keep you guys posted but that's it for me for the year.  Just realizing that that doesn't mean much when there's 10 days left in the year LOL!

All that matters is the conviction. Whether there are 364 days left in the year or 3, the main point is that you choose a position and stick with it. I love the commitment! No Iron Heart for 10 days?!? You are a man amongst boys lol!!!

[Paul9221]

Adam, you're so positive!  Can you be my life coach?

Black denim has a special place in my heart.  And with all IH black denim, I never know if it's going to be run again.  Couldn't miss out on this one.

Excited to hear how this goes. Fingers crossed  for you.

@neph93 have you ever heard of anyone losing more than an inch in the inseam after a soak with sanforized but unwashed denim?

Nope. Seems unlikely to me too, but who knows?
