"Just go with levi's, if you're super fancy you can get the shrink to fit ones, wear them, sit in the tub once, let them dry on you, viola. Then you can wash them from there. Otherwise, get the $30 ones that are dark wash and not give any F**ks. Whoever has the time to do all of this soaking and treating of jeans probably can't afford a $200 pair."
