Why are you selling your pair of 'Gough' already? Sheer curiosity. =)

Yeah. Didn't you just get those? I thought you were relatively happy with them.

I just got a new pair of hi-tops and want a more tapered leg..these are 9" at the hem. I like the fit til the knee, but from the knee down it's too loose for my likes.

Interesting. The soak didn't cause any shrinkage? Think an actual wash would?

Also, aren't you wearing that waist pretty tight? Everyone said to size down one, as I recall.

An actual wash definitely would cause some shrinkage. I warm soaked my pair and put it into the dryer ( IMO fit >>>> mad contrast

) and it turned out perfect. Went down 1" for waist, 2" for inseam, slimmer in the thigh area as well.

Huh. Seems I was right about them being oversized for shrinkage after all. Thanks.

Here's the deal, I was at a local GAP yesterday morning and spotted about a dozen pairs of Gough jeans there (in many sizes: 28+30+32+33+34+35 off the top of my head). I got mine already (shipped from a GAP elsewhere ironically

), but I'm going back there tomorrow to do pick-up for a couple of Steez members.

Since it seems calling the GAP hotline to track down a pair hasn't been fruitful for some people, I can get some more on Sunday and ship it to ya as soon as Monday for $32 (assuming they still have your size). For some credibility, Connemara can vouch for me and I can also do it through eBay if that's your thing. PM me if you're interested. Thanks.
