clench - Are they raw and unsoaked? this may explain your problems, if so I would say soak.

Yes, raw and unsoaked.

I wouldn't mind a soak, but I'm a tad worried that it will re-set all the wrinkles and make things look odd down the line.

[fre-co]

are you planning to wash ever?

if so I would say soak them now, before you put in too much wear that will b e shifted when you wash them and they shrink.

oh but are they sanforized? in which case shrink is not a worry.

[jayrock]

I wouldn't worry about it, especially if the denim hasn't faded much yet. I just hot soaked my APCs after a month or two of wear, and they are just fine.

[Clench Million]

I believe they are sanforized. They are Earnest Sewn Fultons.

[fre-co]

they shouldn't shrink then so soak away if you want.

Gimmegimme - Here in the UK we have skipped summer and gone straight on to autumn.... it's pretty much been cold and raining for the past seventeen years.drying outside is a lottery.

I think I've lucked out every time I've been in London they were having nice weather...but I can sympathize with the cold weather here in Toronto, just not in July!

[spudder]

whats the diff. between new standards and standards? apcs

[narutofan]

does anyone know where i can get a pair of levis red. thanks

[fre-co]

Royle, if it's with tabs and arcs you are after, I think if you are in the states the only way is a proxy service from Japan or perhaps some of the rakuten stores.

one has a lower rise...read through the APC thread:

Has the term 'colorway' been used to describe t-shirt colors for a long time? Or is it a new invention? My memory sucks but I dont remember hearing people talk about colorways 5 or 10 years ago.

They seem to use it a lot in interior design jargon...describing fabrics and colorschemes...I've noticed they use it on hypebeast and all the hype-a-lots constantly now though.

Not sure what you're getting at here... What's the context in which you've heard this?

The only thing I can think of is the somewhat regular Japanese engrish mistranslation of "boot cut" into "boots cutting."

[enycezbigd]

i have one problem, just one day after wear in my new apc's the smell is getting pretty bad

anyone got tips onto how to desanitize them?

[nikesber]

hang them out at night. thats what i did to my nudies and it helped a bunch. i also put them in the freezer sometimes

[enycezbigd]

put em in the freezer? elaborate lol, never heard of this b4, just pop them in the freezer overnight?

[DenimDad]

Snugglepony: On the Take5 website there are some Samurai jeans called

"Samurai S0510XX66II 66 Cutting Jeans"

There's not much information on them, I'm just not familiar with the term "Cutting Jeans" :confused:

[gimmegimme]

putting stuff in the freezer kills the bacteria, which can cut down on the smell...I'm concerned though...you only wore them once??? Do you normally make things smell bad that quickly or is it smelling of something else?

[enycezbigd]

well come to think of it when i bought em at the store they did smell a bit funny, but i thought that was just the smell, and i didnt think much of it, but then as i took them off i did smell like sweat

i duno mayb this pair was tried on alot of times and peoples sweat got on em??

so if i leave my jeans in the freezer overnight they wont damage or anything?

[bchhun]

wearing them after the freezer must feel real nice

how many inches do you guys usually go up from your actual inseam for some nice stacking? and also, how is a chainstitch hem different from any other "hem"
