Slub: (from page 101 of this thread)

"what exactly is slub/slubby? i used the search button but most people just use the word. i haven't found anything that defines it. i think it has to do with either the roughness/naturalness of the denim or baggy? possibly? not sure. obviously a nub question, but anybody want to help me out?

...it is the unevenness of the width of the thread to deliberately make an uneven surface finish on the denim."

The yoke is on the back of the jeans, between the waistband and the top of the pockets. Its shaped like a "V".

I'm looking for a pair of raw denim with a 10-11 leg opening. What are my options? Cheap Monday is the only brand that comes near my desires.

thank you.

are there any coupon deals going on over at denimbar? i feel like i glossed over something about a 20% off code at one time but didn't really pay attention as i've never checked out the site.

[machineo]

did ande use streaky denim for a limited edition line or something? or was this a tendency of earlier aw versions (v1,v2,v3)? these look gorgeous and it makes me wish i didnt sell my flame ssds.

[indesertum]

i was reading the this or that thread and somebody was talking about korean este. i tried searching here and searching on google and i can't find anything, prolly cuz i really suck at searching. can anybody point me in the right direction?

Is it normal for my creases to dissapeer after starching?

[Pandemonium]

it's never normal for your creases to disappear after starching.

but since you starched it, new creases will come... harder and faster. [yeshomo]

i assume that you didn't wear these jeans for long for the creases to be highly indented?

[KicksNotBombs]

Yeah, so starching is most effective after creases are fairly indented correct?

[Contingency Plan]

Were the jeans hanging when you starched? When the jeans get wet from the liquid starch, that tends to relax the fabric. If it was hanging, that'd cause it stretch and the creases would straighten out some. They do come back though, in approximately the same place.

Pandemonium's right in saying that if they weren't worn the creases weren't as set,making the starching 'lose' the creases. Don't spray so much at a time, I'd say.

Planning on buying a pair of Samurai S5000BK through a proxy service. There are no chainstitchers in my area and the inseam is too long. Would doing a hot wash with hot dryer shrink the inseam 3-4 inches?

3-4" is quite a bit.. it will most likely shrink around 2.5" (or to the tagged inseam length). fyi, if you buy it from BIG, they can hem them for you with a chainstitch.

I just ordered a pair of s5000vx from BiG and used their OXS and chainstitch service.

They are out of stock on the bk's (and just noticed they are taking preorders but it will take another month fro it to arrive)

[LIVENUDEGIRLS]

I know there is a thread with a million pages dedicted to apc jeans, but finding answers in a thread that large is cumbersome... anyway, anyone know how much brand new apcs will shrink in the waist? Also, are they sanforized?

[jufros]

yeah they're sanforized. little to no shrinkage. a warm wash will shrink them back to original size in the waist for about 10 minutes, after which they will be stretched as fuck again.

I just bought a pait of bk's from parachutes and he arranged chainstitching before they were shipped. It cost 1050 yen which is less than 10 bucks. I'd say give him a try.

[closingtime]

anyone can recommend japanese denim that "slim fit" like nudie slim jim

i just sent parachute the money for the bk's. i will just do a wash and see how much it shrinks. If the stacking doesnt look too weird, imma just leave it as it. I can live with a 35-36" inseam.

did you already get your package from parachute? how long did it take? this is my first time going through a proxy service.

[jcotteri]

Would anyone know what size someone should get in A Bathing Ape if they are about a size 32 normally?

Thanks:o

[LaiShin]

oh my...

try hypebeast.

[Blacksail]

Just looking for a quick response here.

I've been looking through all the washing methods, and I'm just not sure which one to use!

I've worn my Nudie Slim Kims for 9 months without washing, and I think I'm gonna finally wash them tonight.

I want to bring them back to the fit they had when I first bought them, without too much length shrinkage. I'm also looking to get the absolute most contrast I can - I want to maintain some of the indigo so I can go another 9 months!

Thanks in advance, and I'm sorry if this is super redundant. I know people ask this shit all the time.

[beefcake]

who are doing a shopping service in japan now? are parachutes and 2000db still available?
