the_soon_to_be Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 (edited) well before you go on any ride, have a gander at abit of porno then ride with a knob on, and it will lift your troussers up to the right hieght failing that i once put in too much washing powerd (really mean my mum) and they shrunk but were abit stiff (ha ha aha) don't hold me to it though gaz.... those are some good idea, tumble dry them fo ages, again goes stiff Edited October 13, 2005 by the_soon_to_be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extreme_biker0 Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Iron them for ages then soak them in vinegar for 6 days then put them in the oven then your concers will be harder then anyone elses!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delusional Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 If they fit you around the waist I wouldn't risk trying it. The chances are, if you manage to shrink the rest of the trousers the waist will shrink along with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicH_87 Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 try putting them on and sitting in the bath, there might be more to it than that but i'm sure i've seen that done before. And at least that way the waist will be the right size, either that or it'll crush your pelvis and you'll be forced to drown yourself to stop the agony. :ermm: :- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janson Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 levi's recommend sitting in the bath with new jeans for a more custom fit. Can't see how it would shrink them that much though, only a little. and it only works with raw denim, nothing old or pre-faded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
