      @Heavy_blue Thanks! I am also curious whether the jeans were one washed after being assembled, or the sbg fabrics was already one washed in itself prior to being used to assemble the jeans?

        @lauclive I believe the jeans are washed after assembly. @Giles or @Alex

                      @weftyarn so good. I’m almost to a hundo and first wash time. Thanks for reminding me to turn my brightness down lol. Fades still looking good even that dark!

                        I need some washing advice... I am nearing 100 wears on mine, and I want to wash them soon. I had a pair of 555sbg in the past, and I screwed them up bad washing them so I want to avoid that with these by all means necessary. I learned after the fact that with SBG soaking them prior to wash is essential, so I am planning on doing that and then throwing in my machine on delicate/handwash setting. Any other advice? I am going to hang dry afterwards

                            @Jcaz6996 thanks for that. I have always just thrown my indigo right in the wash without soaking and had no issues, but maybe I'll just start to presoak first with all of mine just to avoid any issues

                                @hgering27 I’ve just given my 555 SBG their first wash after 50 wears and they came out fine. Soaked in the bath with warm water and Woolite for around half an hour with a bit of agitation then in the machine, cold wash with no spin.
