So, I gave these a soak with me in them in the tub to see if they would loosen up at all. I went for a ride in them while they were wet, but could feel them getting tighter as they dried. So, unfortunately, I'm going to have to send these on early. I'm not going to be able to give them the proper wear, so I will send them to someone who can. After the ride I gave them a warm soak for one hour. They didn't lose much color, but there was definitely some shrinkage.

The new measurements are.

Thigh: 11 3/4"
Knee: 8"
Opening:7 7/8"
Rise: 10"
Waist: 16" across back
Inseam: 34"


Soraanaam up next?

Looks like I'm starting these off. The denim is super stiff right now and really, really, tight on my thighs. My thighs are quite large due to playing football for six years straight and squattting heavily for those six years. I'm guessing my body type is different than most who will be participating in this. I'm hoping to take a long bike ride tonight to get them to stretch out some, but it's raining really hard right now so that may have to be delayed.

measurements:

Waist: 33.5"
Inseam: 37"

Thigh: 11 7/8"
Knee: 8 1/2"
Opening: 8 1/2"
