Hi all, I just bought a pair of Evisu raw selvage jeans over the weekend. As I understand from the sales person, it is better to wear it at least 6months to 1 year before 1st wash. I wanna check with you all how you all keep it clean

my personal opinion..just wear until u cannot withstand the smell..washing it too early may effect the fading but who cares..as along as u comfortable in it and shows ur own character..

Chaz thanks for the guide. But another thing, about the sizing. I think I read some where in v3 that the jeans will loosen after wear it for long time. The Evisu I just bought is my normal size. Should I change it to small size? Because I worried it will get to lose as currently the jeans fit me just nice.

sizing down for raw denim is normal practice by denimhead..but back to ur personal preferences again, no need to size down if u are feeling uncomfortable..if loose just wear a leather belt..

Just a friendly reminder, asking is good but all of fellow denimhead here are tired of answering the same question again and again...please read from the first post..

Hehehe. Okok. I read some of them. But just that dun really understand after reading it.. Anyway. The link you give me earlier is quite informative. Thanks a lot.
