New Fanker 801b

All, I recently bought a pair of New Fanker 801b's and found they fight snug and the lenght is perfect. This fit works for me as long as they do not shrink. Has anyone found that this style / wash shrank when washed them for the first time? I'm all about following the protocol to wash cold, gentle, and hang dry, but I've found other diesels have slightly shrunk a quarter to half an inch on the inseam. The pair that recently shrunk was another new fanker in the 008b9 wash and the amount they shrank was ok since they were a little loose to begin with, but the 801b's are already tight.... Your input would be much appreciated and could save me 3 hundo if my jeans shrink too much after the first wash.

I almost feel like the 801b's might be prewashed because the inseam is measuring exactly 30 ( which it should) while my 8b9's are still measuring long at 31 ( they should be 30). Prewashed they were 31.25.

Has anyone's 801b's stretched at all?

Thanks!

Hi Balloonstar, I own 3 (yes, three) pairs of New-Fanker 801B, and they don't shrink at all. I wash them cold.

I haven't washed my 801B yet but the denim feels that they won't shrink the inseam. It's just a guess but Robohgedhang confirmed it for you.

Last question for you guys, what fit and length do you think looks more appropriate?

 

32" 30" (these are the snug in the waist but lenght feels good)

 

 

 

33" 32" (perfect in the waist but the lenght is a little too long)

Can you get pictures of the back. I just want to see how short is the inseam from the back. But I wouldn't go for 33W, too big.
