it's to acheive a higher contrast of fades on the denim between the worn out parts and the unworn areas. if the jeans are washed reguarly, the indigo loss will be too even and u'll only end up with a lighter blue all across without much definition on the distressed areas.

btw, what if i don't want the jeans to fade, as in i like the dark indigo color and want to maintain it.. then what should i do?

u can always get your jeans dry cleaned instead of washing. it'll somewhat preserve the indigo more.

My dior was to small for me sad.gif so im sending it back to them to change for another size

how small was your diors? if it's only one 1 size, i suppose they'll stretch. they're known to stretch 1-2 sizes after a month of wear

btw, kid spotted in japan rocking flat heads....MADNESSS!!!

indigo bleeds are the stigmata of a true denim-head, dude biggrin.gif

or just avoid wearing white/light coloured items but you'll still get blue hands haha

the uniqlos won't shrink cuz they're sanforized. At most it'll shrink 0.5 size but it'll stretch back out after a few wears. It's also been known to stretch out 1 full size if you wear them hard enough.

thin finn's looking mighty nice there. 8 mths with no fades yet? kinda stubborn eh?

but i gotta give more props to them imperials. honeycombs are coming out perfectly.

anyways, i've manage to drop by Uniqlo and was rather disappointed they didn't bring in the selvedge denims. would've love to get a pair of beaters.
