      The SBG has not been "fixed" and if you are not careful you will get white lines during a rigorous wash.  I'd turn inside out and hand wash…...

        Thanks All.

        @ArloVShop - Yup, over the weekend I then ran 3 90c washes, using white vinegar or soda crystals. Seems to have done the job.

        The smell is gross, let's hope a handwash with just Dr Bronner will do… thought about using white vinegar also, but unsure of this / denim combo.

          Vinegar doesn't hurt if I'm correct, should even reduce color loss. Could be an old wives tale though.

            Believe it or not, vodka is a great natural deodorizer. Spray it on, and smells go away. Better than febreeze!

                Hey,
                before i am going to ruin my 555S-BLK i want to ask for your advice: wearing my 555S-BLK today and playing with my daughter i sat on a chocolate bar for a good time, long enough to have the chocolate melted on the back of my jeans, i would say that the melted chocolate already started to move into the fabric!

                What would you guys do to get the jean clean?

                Would be happy for any advice!

                Have a great WE,

                Klaus

                          Does anyone ever wash their jeans with the hem cuffed? Or is that just weird?

                              If the fold lasts at all you might just end up with washing marks.

                                  That's what I was thinking too but thought I'd throw it out there.
