  1. 1. small question thread

    2. all nudie & apc = sanforized

    sanforized denim is so "mainstream" now that you can assume it is unless it specifically says otherwise. Unless you really delve into hardcore jap denim.... i.e. samurai.

  2. they're sanforized hence the lack of shrinking, how are they breaking in dude?

    Breaking in nice. Like i said they a finally comfortable. I was getting worried there for a minute that they wouldn't break enough for me to wear them. No noticable wear though. I don't expect to see much on them for a while though. It's defititely a great classic fit and i love the way they feel now that they are more denimy and less sheet-metalesque.

  3. i did a hot 3 hour soak on mine and they barely shrunk anywhere. Not enough to notice at all anyway. I have a good 25 days of wear on mine and they are finally comfortable and i really like the fit now that they loosened up a little.

  4. No, I believe SugarCane removed the arc's on all their models now. But some still have the red tab, and if you're lucky, the arc's as well. Sometimes buying from Rakuten can be complicated, as some don't speak english, etc etc... look in the denim encyclopedia, for the list of shops and etc...

    Buy them from SelfEdge?

    i have a brand new pair of 40400 from japan that have green tab and arcuate intact

  6. ^^^^ exactly. natuarl indigo is nominally mor expensive than synthetic. It really comes down to dying method. Japanese ai dyeing is the result of a 6 month fermentation process totally done by hand and natural methods.
