You really did it this time, Jskidder, "neg-repping" that poor guy just because he doesn't "study Diesels all day."

No dude. Everyone just needs to calm the hell down and let people be individuals and do their own thing because this world would be a very boring place if everyone was the same.

YA DIG?
Interesting that you said that. Yesterday when I was in a denim store looking for raw denim, I asked a salesperson what I could do to get the worn and vintage look fast. Guess what he told me? "You can just use sandpaper if you want it really quick" lol...

Funny: you dipshits making fun of callejeros for pinching and rubbing his jeans.

Funnier: you dipshits buying predistressed jeans and somehow believe that this isn't exactly how it was done at a factory.

Funniest: callejeros pinching and rubbing his jeans looks way more realistic than any fucking dior wash you dipshits beast over.

Funny: You disgrace California (half-kidding with this one )

Funnier: Predistressed jeans are purposefully predistressed (obviously). Callejeros is buying raw jeans and instead of waiting for natural fades to occur, takes matters into his own hands (literally) and makes his own unnatural-looking distressings and fades.

Funniest: The pinching does not look natural at all. Check out the guy on SUFU who posted his Diors in the evolution thread recently. Shit looks awesome and natural. Almost like a washed jean by Hedi. Also, I don't beast over dior washes.

No hate

did you soak them? shrink to fit means they are unsanforized, so when they get wet they will shrink about 2 sizes everywhere. which explains why they fit you as 27's and you normally wear a 29. most likely after the soak they will be way too small in the waist and they legs will also shrink a ton as well.

gah, thats what im scared of! even with me wearing them to soak in the tub would be a bad idea?

possibly, although ive heard stories of guys in the 60's getting high and falling asleep while soaking, only to have the jeans cut off their circulation :/

myth maybe?
but worth a try at 15 bucks
