We get a restock of Imperial every single week, usually on Thursdays but the brand continues to sell out almost instantly every time we get a restock.

I just tried on my IH 634SRs, and I can just get them closed before soaking. If I cold soak and then wear them wet should I expect them to fit, or should I just size up?

I'd do a 15 minute cold soak then put them on while damp and they'll stretch right out.
You might be happier with the fit if you stick with that size unless you wanted a more full cut.

Sounds like a plan. Next question - should I plan to cold wash these jeans for their lifetime, especially if I get them hemmed after the first soak, or is there a point in a jean's life where a first touch of hot water will not shrink them?

And just for reference - I tried on a new pair of APCs after the IHs. The French jeans feel like leggings after the Japanese ones.

Is it possible for a pair of size 33 SEXSC06 to stretch out in the thighs post soak to accomodate someone with 22.5 inch quads?
I absolutely love the denim on them, so if that wont work, any other jeans with similar denim?
