Hey /fa/ggots,

I want to get the calves on my raws tapered much more aggressively (I have bigger thighs) but I don't wanna wash them yet. But if it'll screw up the fit if I don't, then I will. I'm about 8 months in. Will I fuck them up if I tailor before washing or will it not matter so much?

>> No.6511544

why don't you wash your jeans?

You're not going to lose any indigo you pussy

>> No.6511685

>>6511525
I think 8 months is too late.
You'll also screw the fades if you change the fit.

Come on, man - you're not gonna give unwashed 8 month raws to some poor tailor to work on are you? think about it. It's gross. Most of them will tell you to slag off.

turn your jeans inside out and wash them on cold

you will lose zero indigo

this not washing shit was made up by raw denim manufacturers to cultivate some imaginary culture around what they were selling

it's fucking stupid

He'll lose indigo to crocking during spin and rinse cycles.
Cold tub soak, inside out with a spoon of detergent, woolite blacks only.

I Don't think denim can really be played. I think Raws had a re-emergence and then became the new standard. There will always be a place for hard-wearing, affordable and individually unique garments. They go with nearly everything, too.

You make a good point about the fades. I think there might be a little misalignment on the bottom whiskers but it should hardly be noticeable.

Also the whole thing about jeans smelling and being gross is bullshit from my experience. I don't walk through mud or puke on them. I just walk to class and walk back. They don't smell like anything.

On a related note, can I get some pictures of the ideal fit on the calves so I know what to look for when they're pinning it or whatever?

And should I get the inseam shortened to length or leave it long? I couldn't get decent stax before because they were too baggy so I just cuffed.

ideal fit is based on taste. but if you have a long inseam you should have stronger taper/tighter fit so the stacks aren't all at the shoe.

unbrandeds?
theyre sanforized so they shrinkage wont be significant - even if its tight in some parts (prob in thighs) youll end up stretching them out.
