i cringe when i hear that.

it is possible. but so is nuclear holocaust.

washing is part of the life cycle of jeans.

i love seeing how jeans evolve with washes.

why someone would want to miss out on that...

i dunno.

like killing a puppy because they don't want to see it mature.

or slitting the throat of a choking child throat to remove a piece of errant apple.

Weird analogies, but I see your point. But I find it hard to find a date if I smell.

Crate Denim put it best...

"Washing jeans is bad. Not as bad as your girlfriend not making out with you cause your pants smell. Your call."

I think the idea, obviously, is to go as long as possible and to think about what you're doing and what you want to accomplish with washing (or not).

I usually aim for about 6 months of continuous wear, before even thinking about washing (and I live in a warm climate and ride a bike...). I've been a pair of United Bamboo since June and think I'll just keep going...

its funny because not washing is now a selling point in jeans. i feel like Nudie's def. started this trend...or at least brought into the for front about how not washing effects fading...i was at APC this weekend and someone bought a pair of new standards and the saleswoman was like "you know what to do with these right? don't wash them...."
