Soaking tips needed for Levi's Eco selvage STF

[lapu lapu]

Hey guys...

Just bought a pair of jeans from the new Levi's Eco selvage line of repros. From what I've heard, these are basically the same as the 1947's but are made w/ organic cotton...

Does anyone here have experience with these? Namely, in terms of what the best pre-wear soak method is?

I've read that a hot or warm soak is the best way to get most of the shrinkage out of the way...is this correct?

Anything will help...thanks in advance!

soak for two hours; temperature doesn't matter

i don't have those jeans, but no matter

Would it be advisable to wear them while in the tub during the initial soak?
