[edwardstanley]

anyone washed their jeans yet?
pictures maybe?
wondering if the top block would shrink after a wash
coz mine is kinda too roomy for my liking I HAVE NO ARSE

[hafeau]

same here the waist stretches alot and also i have a hip flare.. need to know whether i can shrink it if soak in hot water.

[Finn666]

the stretching achieved by wear is most likely going to shrink back to the original measurements after a wash/soak!…remember though that they´ll always stretch again. maybe, by wearing a belt, you can slow down the stretching...maybe!

I've worn these for 8 months and washed them twice.

There are a several unexpected issues I'm having with these jeans.  The first is massive leg twist.  I've never seen anything so extreme.  Perhaps this is due to unsanforized denim being exposed to a hot overdye solution.

I got a vertical line on the back of the lower right leg after the first wash.  I followed the procedure I've used successfully many times before (gentle cycle, inside out, no spinning).  But what I don't understand is that the line is not on the crease where the jeans were folded when in the washing machine.  Also, I washed my overdyed IHSH-26 very hard after oil was splashed on it and didn't experience any lines.  Fortunately, the line is barely noticeable when the jeans are being worn.  I washed the jeans on the hand wash cycle for the second wash and no additional lines appeared.  Unfortunately I don't have a bathtub or large sink in which to wash the jeans.

I expected that the jeans would fade faster based upon my experience with a pair of overdyed Crates that I had several years ago and pics that MaxPower posted on this board of his overdyed 634s.  Also, I expected an transition from black to blue to grey but except for the back pocket they are fading directly from black to grey.

I shredded the crotch in 6 months.  These are the thickest jeans I've ever had and didn't expect to set a record for my quickest blowout.  SelfEdge sewed in a heavy cotton patch when they were repaired so hopefully it will be a while before they need to be repaired again.

On a positive note, they are the best fitting jeans I've had.

I've got pretty serious leg twist on my pair of these, too.

Expecting to get the same fades as Max is just setting yourself up for disappointment.

@Chris:

Since the 301s are tighter than the 634s I would have expected even more fading.

No disrespect to Max, but I've gotten some pretty good fades myself
