Oh yeah that makes sense
buy expensive jeans, but don't wash them because they fall apart



Hmm so my mom was right in giving me ginger ale when I felt like shit

lol

they dont fall apart lol. Just the die in mine ran when i washed them so it looks fucked. Now i just freeze them to kill the bacteria.

Fuck paying big money for jeans that just make you look like a fag anyway.

Levis. Last long, fit right and don't look like my fucking girlfriends pants.

I used to buy more expensive jeans. but I always find myself working on cars and ruining them. so now I dont spend shit on jeans

[SeanDub]

Aren't Levis one of the original jean companies? Not very rota like lol

Haha yup.

Thats still fucked. Id much rather wash my clothes then worry about keeping them in 'raw' condition. A freezer is for food, not clothes.



Like I'd believe your doctor.

Shut it cunt.

Wearing Levi's is like having rota's on a car.. They make look ok but thier still cheap


jk I have a few pairs of Levi's and Wranglers.

Bullshit, buying from companies like "American Rag" is like buying rotas.

So apparently you're only looking at the price tag instead of what raw indigo really entails?

No, I just don't give a FUCK about it, I'd never want to wear jeans that cost that much, fuck I've worked on my friends car in tux pants and shirt before, I'd never want jeans that I would be afraid of getting even a drop of sprite on.

Bolded is why a lot of raws cost a lot. 14.5oz selvaged raw indigo denim isn't cheap.

so what is the price for it then?

Heavier the denim, the more durable it is. Raw indigo is just unwashed/undistressed denim. Since they were not 'prewashed' before or distressed, the material is a lot stronger and more durable than a prewashed counter-part.

Pretty much the whole point of raw denim is to make them "distressed" in your own way, not buy them with scuff marks, holes, honey combs, whiskers already from the factory. You buy raw to wear them in, distress them while doing whatever it is you do to personalize it and make it a lot more "fitted" to your body. Since there is no pre-wear already from factory, they'll last a lot longer than pre-washed jeans. There are also raw denim that isn't skinny jeans or "hipster" jeans. I just like the skinny jean look, so I wear them.

So basically you're paying more for them to do less work to make the jeans?
And they are rougher than prewashed jeans so they last longer?
Do you have to break them in like new boots?
Also what is the price for a sheet of this fabric, I would like to see the price difference.

[SeanDub]

You're defending jeans more than you defended yourself when I called you gay. Lol

Myth confirmed?

It's a personalization thing. Just like modding a car to your own tastes. And yes, they are rougher. They're stiff as fuck. Yes, you break them in. That's the whole point.
