did thighs stretch too ?

Meh, would rather not soak them given the waxing or whatever it is they use to make jeans sharp notation'd. I am more on a 10-20 wear plan than a "still tight by tomorrow" plan; now that the waist is do-up-able without much difficulty they're comfortable so if it takes a while I couldn't care less. I bought them for summer and there is still snow on the ground.

R six it's probably a PU coating and is likely resistant to washing.
