lol I barely have the bread duke, I'm not even sure why I'm getting them...on BiG theyre 210 and on selfedge theyre 245 so I might just save a little dough and get the 5010 indigo 6x6 instead idk


if you really need a nice black pair in rotation...try the uniqlo s-001's. they are nice as hell. but it would def be worth it to wait it out on the reup of indigo instead of rushing into black denim if ya dont have the money

they probably went true to size since sizing down would be a silly thing to do

Yeah yeeeaaaah-ughhh! I hope BiG's service is fast because I want 'em already...

I sized down 1 from what I copped my APC NCs in, but I HAVE gotten slimmer so its kinda like true-to-size.

Should I expect major bleeding on shoes when I first start wearing them ?? Such as, for ex, Authentics in white ?? Andddd do I have to pre-soak ? Hot or cold ?? someone break down the basics to me 'cause I'm trying to get the most legit denim experience out these bitches

xposted from rep thread, i dont know if you saw it: yea you could, but it can prevent roping which is like wavy shit that naturally comes onto your hem..if you can live with the jawnz bleeding on your shoes then i would say screw the tape..but if you can't yea just tape it around

if you got raw go for a cold soak 1 hour, hang dry 45minutes or until barely braely damp. if their one wash, see how your creases go for a week or 2 and if you dont see good sharp creases go in for a cold soak 1 hour, about 35minutes and wear it slighty damp, dont wear it fully damp because youll get nasty knee bewbs and odd creases

as in hang dry them in the crib ?? cause drying them outside wont work with this brisk Chi wind development ... And ive never soaked before, do I just put them in the tub and put shit on top to hold them down then fill up the tub with cold water ??

hang drying in the house works but itll take longer so hang dry for like an hour and 15minutes, soaking fill up your tub with cold water and then just put your jeans in there, then take like cups or bags and fill it up with water and put it over it, and leave it for 45minutes-1hour

your true waist is 30? October is in a month..I would just wait for the 30, because itll stretch out to a nice comfortable fit, 31..it might feel a bit looser, depends what fit your going for..

I dont think i can wait another 3-4 weeks for new denim. I might just go with some NCs and save a grip of cash

true but i need denim asap. Im wearing shorts everyday and a pair of shitty urban outfitters OD black dyes

EDIT: im just gonna take one more week to think it over. I would probably like the skullz a lot better and be happy knowing not as many people have them. Ill be up 2 paychecks by the drop anyway so money wouldnt even really be a problem.

Ive been looking at skull jeans for a long while now but im not sure if its worth it or not. I really love skinny jeans but my girlfriend criticizes the fact that i was contemplating forking out that kind of money for a pair of jeans. Especially since i can just buy a decent pair of skinny levis under $100 that are just fine. I'm putting some real thought into it now though because they are just different. And they look bad ass.

So are they really worth it? (if so where should i buy em and how long would I be waiting for the shipping)
