You guys have convinced me to scoop up some 710s instead of the flat head 1001s I was looking at. Ordered from 2nd on rakuten a couple days ago :)

So these are like STFs basically? The deal is to hot soak them just after arrival?

it's the deal with nearly every Japanese denim. They are just unsanforized.
Measured mine and the inseam went from 94cm to 89cm after soak
