QUOTE(g3n0c|d3 @ Sep 18 2011, 12:55 PM) yeap.. for that kindda price i rather go and buy from cultizm and its still cheaper (and u'll be having both vintage and selvedge too) plus shipping... does the custom tax for bringing in a pair of denim online?but then again... some people wont mind paying as much as long as they can get a nice fit as for ordering online... u have to guess ur size...  Added on September 18, 2011, 1:36 pmbtw what are the differences between vintage and non-vintage denim? This post has been edited by h11g: Sep 18 2011, 01:36 PM |

QUOTE(g3n0c|d3 @ Sep 18 2011, 02:08 PM) levis vintage = reproduction from the past levi's denim... usually with the big E on the tag (LEVI'S not Levi's). and mostly the levi's vintage is made from selvedge denim. Wow bro, the shipping is fast. 2 days only?i've taken that from cultrizm website. as for the tax.... well i cant say anything about tax since i never got taxed before (the good thing about posting at my company's address lol.) thou ive encountered some of the forumers here said being taxed but im not sure how much.... btw another thing u need to know is cultrizm is from europe means they will deduct their good about 19% (refer here). and so far ive calculated that i never paid the retail price eventhou plus shipping. neat huh? the delivery? last time i ordered on Wednesday evening and i got my package on friday evening (DHL delivery that is....) |

Still getting use to wearing raw denim. the color spreads everywhere. At the end of a long day after wearing my jeans, my hand is indigo in color.
 It even dyes my shoes slightly blue |

QUOTE(g3n0c|d3 @ Nov 24 2011, 11:41 PM) i thought dry organic embo is hard to break in? anyways.... why u need a hot soak? hot soak usually shrink ur denim..... yah very hard to break in, after wearing 1 1/2 months only can see some light fading on knee cap area, the honeycombs at the back no fade at all. but the pair of jeans still have the shiny surface. correct me if im wrong.... anyways... u only wore like 1 1/2 months.... give it more time... 3-6 month at least.... The reason i want to soak is cuz it's getting a little bit dirty and smelly. |

QUOTE(kevin190791 @ Nov 25 2011, 06:57 PM) it will break in beautifully if you really "wear" it "hard", try a year bro Thanks for your advice bro, after listening to your advice, I will try to bear with it... if smelly, put in the freezer or hang it a day under the sunlight  unlike the fast fading nudie, thr process in organic is slow, but the results is great because of the very deep blue color indigo in the organic cotton Does wearing hard means jumping and running while wearing them? Yes they do have very dark indigo color. |
