@HerbOne:

had them for 4 wks. I need to get these hemmed a couple inches shorter. I live in Minneapolis, USA. Feeling like it is worth sending them out to get proper chain stitched… Any suggestions, recommendations?

Thanks

Blue Owl Workshop in Seattle, no question.  Jay is a great dude and is the only person I will send my jeans to for hemming, even though I live in Raleigh NC and the Raleigh Denim Curatory is 15 min away.  24hr turnaround and spectacular service and quality hemming job.  $25 per pair for hemming, plus return shipping.  Just put a note in with your request (thread color, length, whatever) and contact info and he'll get you sorted out.

Sent them. Thanks.

Blue Owl was exellent, the hem looks exactly the same as factory. I would highly recommend Jay to do any hemming you need.

Speaking of hemming if i were to drop my pair off at say SENY would they ship em to my house or do i have to go back there to pick em up?

I'm not sure… but it might be time to soak those.  If you put them in the freezer they will eat all your food.

i think eli just got bitch slapped…

but wait...those look sanded all over the f...ing place! 
sry sal, but you´d have better gave those 500USD to me instead of buying a pair of jeans and raping it to death with sandpaper and "slides"!...

[elclintor]

Ok, I'm just gonna say it.

That has to be the worst evo I've ever seen. It's obviously faked, and it really hurts me to see it.

Just throwing my opinion out there. I apologize if any feelings are hurt.

If you do wash them, make sure to turn them inside out.  This denim seems to be way more prone to washing machine abrasion than any other pair I've owned.

[Finn666]

damn…i still can´t believe you did this! 

[J-IV]

Utterly speechless..

What I wouldnt't give for an IHxPrada collab pair like Sally's!.. 

[supersalami]

how long do your jeans usually bleed for? i've been wearing mine for about 2 weeks now and i have immense fear of wearing anything white or light colored.. 2 of my white t-shirts have been stained indigo permanently and I don't want to stain anything else..

[injunjack]

Soak them…

[davito]

I would not soak at this early stage as this denim gets stiffer at that time and too much unnecessary indigoloss on that beauty IMHO. wear a bit until it settled and then soak, I did it after about 2 months, some do it earlier, some later, some never ;). Dont fear the indigo, it should be washable

If you wear this type of jeans you almost always have stains mate

@Seul:

Yeah: really hating the fact that my pair will last a couple of years… What I wouldnt't give for an IHxPrada collab pair like Sally's!..

Daaamn Dirty denim, slow down with the steroids

Give the tools a break, and have a little faith in time+movement ,- i'm sure these jeans will be killers.

No doubt you also did a lot of hard work in these.

Nice

I am all for natural evolution of jeans. Having said that, it's each to their own with respect to how they treat their pants. If DD wants to trash his jeans in record time, that's his perogative.

I hope this doesn't sound nasty or spiteful.

Right, because washing machine abrasions are a definite concern here.
