In putting on my F380s just now to go have BBQ w my best friend and his fam, i realized how loose these have become… ive been wearing them for maybe 5 or so months 2 or 3 times a week light desk and weekend wear... i think i need to wash em to shrink em back down but they dont smell. I dont know if i should full on woolite dark wash em in the tub or just quick hot soak them to get em to shrink back down... and i'm not sure if i've put enough wear into them to even get any fades... i have like no proper washing experience w higher end denim. I wish i got these 1 size smaller than TTS now. Blargh.

warm soak, hang dry in a warmish place imo. you're better off that way although you'll get your fades eventually. i was in a rush to fade my jeans and then i realized that ill be wearing them for years and years anyways so i shouldn't worry. PS i want ur toggle coat on SF. ill be able to pick it up from you so no shipping

They are really cool jeans, with details that you won't find on cheaper jeans, such as their unique construction where everything looks like it is single stitched but with a reinforcing stitch in indigo. The color is nice, they're not as dark as most of the other raw denim that I have new, but they actually look really good, with the color not looking as uniform at a glance as most raw denim.
The SExFHxRR10 cut is one that I like as well. They are a slim straight jean, but not too skinny. The rise is pretty low, so make sure you are OK with that. I ended up sizing down 2 from my true waist on these, because the hips and especially the waist run big on them. They don't shrink much either after 2 hot soaks, from my experience. Unless you have really big thighs, I would definitely recommend sizing down on this cut.
The one thing that I don't like about the design on these is that the coin pocket is placed too high. If you wear a 1 1/2" wide belt, which is pretty standard nowadays for most people, the opening of the coin pocket will be covered by your belt, making it relatively inaccessible.
As far as fading goes, this model has only been available for less than a month now, so they are too new for anyone to have really good fades on them yet. From early progress pics that I have seen on the forums, though, they seem like they will fade pretty fast.
Are they worth $500? That's a hard question to answer. Undoubtedly, there are jeans out there that I like better for less than what these cost. However, I have no regrets about getting these, because I've never worn anything quite like them before, and they do look good.
