cant really do it without getting them wet... but something i think would be very interesting, brush on india ink... not a proper overdye, but will instill black tones in the denim and the fading should be interesting.

shit... there is a thread on sufu about this... a kid bleached his black cheap mondays and they turned out really cool...
you click "edit".

anyways, i had worn them almost every day for about three months prior to this. they just got the point where they were sagging off my ass, and so i decided to fuck around with them (they cost me like, $60 so i didnt care).

i washed them once, and they didnt look much different... they were slightly distressed, but it was only evident in certain lighting. i sanded the back of the knee area a little, and around the knee. then i threw them in a bucket of hot water and rit dye remover. the water turned orange and when i soaked them, the water turned black. i dried them, and nothing really changed, so i threw them in a bucket of half water, half bleach for about 2 minutes. they turned grey, with an orange tinge. after i dried them, they looked mostly grey, but you could still see the brown undertones. they basically looked taupe. i threw them in another bucket of rit dye remover, and the water turned orange again... i left the jeans in longer this time, and after soaking them, i dried them and they came out looking alot less brown (as you can see in the pictures). i wore them around, but the denim smelled like shit and bleach, so i washed them, and threw them in the dryer again. now they're just grey. they're somewhat lighter than the pictures above. i posted a picture of me wearing them in the "what are you wearing today" thread, if you want to see what they look like right now.

i think haptronic said that most black denim naturally has brown undertones. or something. that explains why you can still see some orange in the pictures.

yea I know jeans fade, but I've never bleached a pair. I figured they would stay the same. Do you have the link to that thread on sufu. I jsut searched but couldnt find it.

different brands are sized differently. levis is always smaller than others, because the waist measturement is what it is... most other brands will be bigger to accomidate wearing them below your true waist.

Okay today i tried on a pair of Nudie Slim Jims. I usually wear a 30 it was fucking tight so i tried a 31 and it was a little looser.I've heard ppl say size down for Nudies but i think that would really break my balls. I usually wear a 30 in all my jeans so i thought 29 would be good but 30 was already super tight...What should i get 30 or 31? I know they're gunna stretch...Help smile

buy the ones that fit snug, but not so tight that you strugle to button them up.

I soaked my Flatheads and they fit me bigger after the soak. Its been about 2 months since the soak. I was just wondering, if I resoak them, will they shrink agian? And will they still retain most of the dye? Or am I better off leaving them as is.

soak them hot... they will shrink back up and loose minimal indigo.
