For anybody that has the money, here's a list of extremely high quality Denim Brands which any raw Denim Enthusiast would recognise,
Nudie A.P.C. Ernest Sewn Crate KMW Spurr Voi RRL Simon Miller Rag & Bone Sugar Cane Acne 45rpm Evisu Studio d’Artisan And for anybody who thinks its disgusting, there are 2 ways which i know of cleaning your jeans without Washing them in water, You can as mentioned, Spray them, or you can steam them, killing any bacteria and leaving a nice fresh smell. In my opinion Wearing 6 month old jeans is fine because your going to wash your legs afterwards anyway. |

Yeah im sure your right mate, was just naming the ones i knew of the top of my head. I hear after 6 months when the jeans have some nice honeycombs, whiskers etc. you should wash them for the first time, is this right? And if so how do i? |

six months is a number brought up first by Nudie jeans
there is no standard to which you should wash your jeans though i do believe good wear and tear definitely helps with the fading process keep in mind too that when you wash your jeans you do get some bit of indigo loss but it really depends on the batch, brand and wear of your jeans that being said if you want to machine wash just flip them inside out and hang dry |

At two years so far. Dry cleaned them once for minimal indigo loss at about the one year mark.

my back pocket has a nice little hole where there used to be a button on my wallet, but that button fell off and now there's just a hole in my jeans for no obvious reason
shit's silly |
