the ass and thigh area still look tight in the dior 19cm.
and have weird creases just below back pocket showing that its quite tight.

but after 1 week or so, the fit will be just nice .

its been said countless times that raw jeans can touch water and its not forbidden. some ppl actually , to the extent of not wearing the jeans cause its raining. if you wash them, it just slow down the fading process and not harmless for people who prefer their jeans having the darker indigo colour.

so just keep wearing them as usual, plus apc fades fast, so no real worries there.

^^ really good explanation by Grimm there.

Many raw jeans turn out beautiful despite washing them quite frequently after the 6 months period for washing your jeans the first time.

if skinny guys is what you're after, stay true to size if you have some meat around thigh and junky ass.

apc stretch much more than naked and famous for your info.

no experience with guess. but anyway, just wear for a few months first. if any fades starts to kick in, then you might want to soak or wash to slow down the fading process.

any label that indicate that the jeans is sanforized or not bro?

sea soak or whatever salt makes no difference.

although i've seen somewhere that salt could preserve the indigo colour .

ps: forget about Topman raws if your budget around rm200, just go for Uniqlo pls.

@elainor,

im not sure if you're screwed, but people go TTS for the devil's fit. but good thing is if you are skinny and have small thighs, then you can fit in it. but if you're true waist is 31, then i doubt you can fit.

and.. 26oz? seriously hope you're not in malaysia now lol.

@Alzaim,

The naked and famous section at Tang's plaza have shifted back to their main HQ store at Haji Lane near Bugis Junction. do your map homework to find the store called Know It Nothing.

@Elainor,

if you haven buy the Ih 666 at size 29, then do some research on sizing beforehand. erm your budget is a lot, pretty much can buy any denim you want. Its all down to your preferences , not my recommendation. But its a good start since you know you want a slim straight look. If you dont mind, you can get something not as heavy as IH since you're new to this raw thing, and can slowly wear them in Malaysia.

most importantly, what's your size? very limited sizes left.. plus depending on the cut too. but i rmb mostly 32 and above which was sad for me. they are having clear out sale so its half off from usual price of SGD259 - SGD 289.

yea they do.

@ doom,

depends how dirty your nudie or how long you worn it for. you can opt for a cold soak, cold wash, or hot soak, and hot wash. hot wash will maximize shrinkage and indigo loss. cold wash will give you a fresh jeans again with less indigo loss and shrinkage. lastly,soak or wash with jeans inside out.
