      Nothing beats washing them whenever you want, and DDD, freezer after a month? There still fresh in a month. Ha. Only reason I wash mine is I work in them at present time, and they literally get dirt all over them, and I don't mean sweat

      Its not that they stink from sweat or anything they actually smell fine..I probably got the thought to freeze my jeans just so I can experience just about everything with them whether useless or not.    I  mean I may look back at all my worries and silly things I did in my denim and laugh.. eventually telling the next newbie what u are telling me…This is my trial an error stage as i am still feeling around & figuring out my own path to glory.

        Just FYI: placing them in the freezer does nothing concerning bacteria/ smell issues…

        Actually, a norwegian biologist just said that somewhere between 50-70 % of the bacteria found in denim does not live trough -18, so if you have a proper freezer, most of the bacteria will die, and that will in turn reduce smell issues too.

        Seize the day and don't you cry.

              +1 victim for the sizing of these.  I thought sizing down to a 31 would be enough but no can do.  Sent back to Self Edge in exchange for a 30, so if any of you have been looking for a 31 it should be in stock again soon.

                  Well got the 30's in today.  Now we've gone from way too loose to Momotaro level tight.  Anyone experienced much stretch with these?

                    Yep. All over. Took like a month to really stretch well. I could barely walk the first week.

                      Thank God.  In the tub they go for a residual indigo soak and I'll get fit pics up once I get them hemmed and worn a few times.

                        I would not soak them they will not stay as soft, but that's just me

                          Yeah, I know soaking sanforized denim isn't the most popular thing to do but I find it really helps with the bleeding and any potential shrinking that remains in the fabric.

                            Yea, I agree. Was just saying because these seemed to get esspessially rough after they got wet. But I've washed mine twice and there pretty soft. Well relatively

                            By the way, if I hadnt said it before…

                            These things are insanely amazing.

                              I hope so!  I bought them because of the pictures you posted.  No joke.

                                          Nice maybe that'll be my 1st 634 cut.  I generally don't like the fit of 634's but it seams they look different on each person . The denim on these is to good to pass up and experience

                                            not sure it will be a true numbered collab but still likely a self edge exclusive ih jean like the 301

                                            so nerk what troubles did you have with self edge? you don't seem to be a big fan
