      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 😉

      Cheers,

        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 hope this doesn't sound nasty or spiteful.

                  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.

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

                      i wear a 33 tag size in 666s.
                      would a 666XHS tag size 33 or 34 suit me better?

                        U should be fine with 33tag, check measurements especially thighs. Good choice mate 🙂

                                go for a 33. the 34 would be too big. im a 33 with a 12" thighs and the 666-xhs in 33 fits perfect. if you have smaller thighs, you might even get away with a 32" cos somehow the xhs seems to run a little bigger than the 666s.  😉

                                    Soak them…

                                    They don't stop man. Seriously. I'm like 7 months and a wash in and they still stain bathtubs when i sit on the edge.

                                        ^^That isn´t the general idea of raw denim.

                                            Yes its my money and my decision but there is  nothing wrong with everyone having their own opinion on what i did.  I mean i never ever used sand paper and everyone seems to believe that.  Either way i cheated in some way or other.  I do have a question.  Why is it ok to take a sea wash and rub sand on ur jeans…Why is that ok..Its sand and sand is sand.  Double standard because a lot of people do that but if i take a dry eraser its a big no no.  Please someone explain to me what the difference is so I can know for myself (Not sarcasm)
