    I'm sure these aren't as great numbers wise compared to your short form stuff but I really love the laidback, conversational nature of these videos! Can't wait to see what you yap about next :)

    Great info as I think you really cover the impotent aspects. Regarding sizing Levi’s 501s have become bigger in the last 10 or 20 years. So a 32 from 20 plus years ago were smaller.

    not necessaily levi's but my first step on raw denim was unsanforized 21oz I bought 2 size down, because I was afraid it will expand overtime and look sloppy. while that 2 size down was fine raw when being tried on, however after first insoak, it was stretch to fit rather than shrink to fit, however 6 years later I still have the jeans and despite the difficult beginning, it is indeed keeping its slim cut on the top block and upper thigh even after multiple washes. so I believe stretch to fit more than shrink to fit for slim top block over the years, maybe not 2 sizes down, but 1 size down, and wearing leather or canvas belt all the time to not stretch out the waistband during long sitting hours

    I’m not sure of why this has shown up in my recommendation, but hey I decided to watch this because with his full mustache and hairy shoulders/bicep area he’s giving 70’s porn star realness..so I watched the video and learned some cool things (not about him), but about Levi’s. Good video if you have the time and patience for this kind of stuff or just purchase it already done for you.

  • @ericiidx
    @ericiidx Před 20 dny

    I forgot which brand used to say it on a tag in their jeans - maybe Wrangler - but it said "please wash three times before wearing" and I'd say that's spot on for unsanforized jeans. Maybe stop after the first or second time if they fit well.

    Do they shrink more if you throw them into the wash after a few wears? I mean, what's the best way to wash them after the initial shrink? if that makes any sense

    • @daniellogansa8101
      @daniellogansa8101 Před měsícem +1

      I washed them in cold water and air dried. They shrink more, but not horribly (they might be a little tight but stretch where they need to and look perfect).

    What do you do once you've shrunk them to the right amount and you don't want them to shrink anymore when you wash them? Do you just not wash them?

    • @propheteurban627
      @propheteurban627 Před 2 měsíci +1

      Machine wash them with lower temperature water, max 30°C and don't use the machine dryer, just line dry them. You can also stretch the length of the legs when they are still wet after a wash by pulling them. For the waist you just wear them, they'll always shrink a bit in the waist when washed and stretch out an inch or so with wear.

      501s are shrink to fit and will shrink 8-10%, most other vintage Levi's were sanforized however will shrink around 5% (probably says so on your tag). So yeah, they will probably shrink a little bit but not much.
