IHxB01xRAW Beatle Buster 18oz Raw Japanese Selvage Denim Indigo

[Jpie14]

Imma pull the trigger on these later this week so I can have a better pair of denim worthy of my IH super tan belt. Although, these would perfect if I could get them overdyed..

@Giles:

One of the reasons that dry cleaning does not shrink natural fabrics is that the friction within the fabric is not reduced by dampening.

I hate to contradict the denim guru, but "dry cleaning" means cleaning using a solvent other than water, rather than not using any liquid at all. Dry cleaned clothes still soak in liquid (typically tetrachloroethylene).

[Giles]

Stand corrected, but that now leads to the question, why do they not shrink when dry cleaned…..?

[mclaincausey]

Because it doesn't use water.  If you can find a CO2 cleaners, it is a superior technology and more environmentally friendly.

[Giles]

That is not the reason.  It is not water pre se that cause the shrinkage, read here:

Soi implies that in dry cleaning the fabric gets wet, just not with water

Hi mate,

you can perhaps post your question here? http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=231.0

[radiobomb1973]

asked the same question four times because I hesitate between these four models.

[Finn666]

if you would have asked ONE question in the thread suggested by Seul, including all the pairs you own and the one you're looking for, you'd have gotten your answers already…just saying

[radiobomb1973]

you're right, ok I'll do it in the appropiate section

thank you

They look like a great fit, Seul.  Curious to know whether you got a full 2 inches shrinkage in the inseam?

[Seul]

No idea. Second hand jeans. Only wearing them cause my dad found it too warm out to already wear 'm… Bloody amateur ey...

[xtcclassic]

Your dad can't handle the girly 18 oz denim? Show him your 25 oz denim and tell him to man the F up!!!

After a few wears. Wasn't used to the cut at first but I am in love with it now. My heaviest pair of jeans by far!

nice fit grabby.  these will prob be my next pair.  do you happen to know how much shrinkage you got in the inseam?

[grabby22]

Thanks! I did a hot pre-wear soak for 1 hour and it shrank a bit. However I did not measure them pre and post soak, so I don't know how much they shrank exactly. I think about 2 inches for the inseam. But the waist stretched back out pretty quickly.

And I love the raw texture of the jeans!
