You know you're addicted...

[idan]

when you are looking at your fades because you are bored in class, and your friend is says "Dude why are you staring at your crotch?"

lol i got that often, but after awhile they will stop

[padillz]

Love those MF tags:)

[tone]

when you don't mind that your shoes look like this, and you just consider it a battle scar.

[Hendodo]

when you get your mom inquiring about all her friends' jeans.

"ooh, are these raw?"

"what kind of material?"

"left hand twill or right?"

hahaha

[beatle]

that´s pretty cool

[rome1]

When you still get psyched to Hot Soak a brand new pair even after you've done it for what seems like a hundred times already.

[phive-oh-won]

^ haha so true.... or when you ride your bike across town to two different stores in search of an electric tea kettle that you can use to do a boiling soak in your dorm room.

unfortunately, I came back empty-handed... but I did contribute to my ass fade from my bike seat.

[enigma07]

when you yack for 2hrs straight about denim to your friends who are obviously not interested and has been yawning for the 50th time.

[simon626]

When you go to nordstroms, and you're looking at all the jeans that suck compared to yours and makes you feel good. When a salesperson asks if you'd like a fitting room to try on the shitty jeans in your hands and you say yes, only to go into the dressing room, throw the store pair on a chair and continue admiring your jeans in the mirror. When done admiring, you leave the dressing room and tell the salesperson "The jeans really weren't what i was looking for."

[JayFourEyes]

When you realize you're actually kind of looking forward to doing laundry on a saturday night because you're planning to wash that long overdue pair.

[simon626]

When it's the end of a long hard day in your uncomfortable raw denim and you still refuse to take them off to relax because the fact that they're uncomfortable means they're still stretching.

[aho]

^Please don't fall into the misconception that raw denim has to be painful/stretch out...I really don't know how this keeps getting propagated and assume its mostly from people downsizing on APC's but it isn't exactly typical of all denim...

[simon626]

heh i also do it with the hope of getting my thighs to get more creased.

when you're doing the butterfly stretch and find yourself genuinely pleased in the fact that you can punch your crotch as hard as you want, and it won't hurt because your jeans are nice and stiff/raw

guilty :X

Thank god i'm not the only one.

[duckfeet]

you know your obsessed when--- you define the types of girls you like in denim-speak.

ie

i like my girls like i like my jeans: slim and distressed

i like my girls like i like my jeans: nudie

[JayFourEyes]

Or maybe how how you like the jeans but not the girls... or maybe a little bit?

I like them loose and raw.

I like them stiff and wrinkly.

Choose your pick.

[simon626]

when you pass by mirrors and spend a good 5 mins checking out the fades, folds and fit of your jeans.

i would + rep but already out...

SO TRUE ):

[simon626]

^Please don't fall into the misconception that raw denim has to be painful/stretch out...I really don't know how this keeps getting propagated and assume its mostly from people downsizing on APC's but it isn't exactly typical of all denim...

yea i know. The only pain i've ever gone through is for my Ironhearts because i really want them to stretch out to perfect size so i deliberately buy them smaller. That way when they stretch out to the max, they're the perfect fit!

[simon626]

when girls start asking you for advice on jeans

Happily Guilty (:

[yyliew]

when you've just ordered a new pair of jeans and check the tracking updates every 5 minutes

[simon626]

When you feel actual guilt for your old jeans when you've ordered a new pair and have been wearing them since to break them in....

Sorry 301S :3

[chrispy]

But with the 634S you can cuff and show off the selvedge!

[Unclegrandfather]

- When you finally join Sufu just to tell everyone that you noticed when Marty McFly trips Biff in the diner, you can totally see a selvedge line on Biff's cuff. Somebody did their costume research.

Hello everyone.

[ashkaun]

When you see your reflection in the doors of the light-rail you're on and decide. "ooh, these would make really cool fit-pics."

Sadly, I dont think any of them turned out damn iphone camera.

[roy6]

When your boyfriend yells at you for taking pictures of your jeans during a dinner party.

p.s. in case nobodies used it yet:

I like my girls like i like my jeans: destroyed and repaired.

[Unclegrandfather]

^cool frye boots

-When you've bent the truth about how often you've washed your jeans.

"Sometimes." = to family and romantic interests

"Net yet." = to online community

[alexwgoody]

when you go to a new sushi place and notice that the chef is wearing Sugar Cane's and vow not to go to any other sushi places.

[rh3522]

when your watching episodes of "lost" and keep thinking how sick your jeans would come out if you were stuck on an island for a few years

[simon626]

You know you're addicted when the reason why you've been late to class the last three days in a row is because you can't decide on which pair of jeans to put on before you walk out that door in the morning......

[mondayc]

I just reupholstered my dining room chairs in a navy print fabric just because anything else turns blue anyways.

[bermuda]

when you make a selvage bracelet
