@Matty123:

@neph93 Are you grabbing these bad boys? I think u already have the 888 21oz right?

Nevernind Reuben. I just saw your response in the DWC thread.

Yeah… but it's UHR and I'm weak af. So never say never 

Innit

Thanks @Dion , kind of you to say so. There’s a real chance I’ll be picking a pair up at some point. You know the problem though, too many leg holes, not enough legs…

[Dion]

So true…

Was expecting to come home today and find these waiting for me. But still out for delivery according to U.P.S. Grrr

“STF denim makes me nervous in general but this stuff is so good that I can't see me passing up on a pair.”

Stop the shenanigans. You aren’t fooling anyone.

^ @Matty123  your «forum nerd» level is undergoing seriously rapid growth here. I approve.

[Matty123]

i felt the change. But I didn’t know what it was or what to call it. I do now.  “ forum nerd level”  thank you my friend

BOOM:

Soaking atm and awaiting a 40° C wash thereafter.

Let us know how much shrinkage you get out of these

Love me a standing denim pic

Probably a bit premature to ask, but has anyone in the larger (38+) waist sizes shrunk their NT/UHR yet? Specifically looking to see how the rise ends up, I just can't work the higher rises without looking like circa 1992 Silver Tabs.

Well after some dicking about by U.P.S my pair size 32 have just turned up. Fit was pretty nice pre soak. They are in a cold bath now. Going to follow the guidelines for soaking this denim. Crazy stiff. I had forgotten how painful doing up buttons was on the heavier denim!

^ same. How many hours do you guys cold soak?

[spitfiredealer]

Mine are probably going to get 1.5hrs.

@spitfiredealer nice. I will likely do the same this evening when I get home to them. Can’t wait.

@neph93
Is it necessary to wash in the machine or soak can suffice the requirement ?

A wash will get out more shrinkage due to agitation of the material, a soak at least is absolutely necessary to soften the material and bed in the stitching.
