Gustin denim blue jeans

Two brand new, never worn denim jeans from Gustin. These were originally 32 slim but they both shrank and are now closer to a 28 waist and 30 length. One has some fraying on the left back leg where a stitch had been made during creation (see photos). I had previously emailed Gustin about that stitch and was told that that happens sometimes and some people like it (?). I’m personally not a fan but no judgments here.
