Hello. Unusual first post.

 

There is a thread somewhere about tea soaking. Another, or might be same, about submerging in clay?

 

In fact there is a Japanese brand, BlueinGreen used to sell them, that sort of specialised on intersting soaks. I can;t remember the name.

 

Here's some other threads.

Although not the one I was thinking of.

 

- edit, found it, The brand is of course Sunrise Japan. Pretty cool stuff.

Oh man, tea sounds like a way better idea! I'm about to do my first raw denim soak a pair of railcars I've been wearing for about a year now (with no wash). They're a little wide in the calfs for me, a little bootcut, so I think a coffee soak would really seal in the workwear ideal. Plus, I couldn't find any coffee soak pics in any of your links, so why not forge some new ground?

What do you know!  You've been soaking them in your ball sweat for the entire year!  You hit the nail on the head, coffeexballsweat is the perfect encapsulation of the workwear ideal.  

 

I'm off for a whisky soak, it's been at least 48 hours.

 You get extra man points if you drink so much whisky that it starts coming out of your pores to soak your jeans from the inside.

I'm fond of the Gatorade soak....sometimes I just worry that my denim has lost too many electrolytes to stay competitive out there.  :blink2:

 

IT'S WHAT PANTS CRAVE
