hey, i got some 1947 and 1955 sugarcanes. would i need to give them a hot soak before wearing?

[beatle]

Depends -are they one wash or raw ? More common are one wash versions for both...

[Mr Black]

Right- here's a good one. I've been breaking in a pair of raw LVC 47's for the past 4-5 months. I wear a 33 waist. These were a 34 but actually measured 33 in their raw state so I shrunk them whilst wearing them in a hot bath. They fit nicely but I woudn't want them getting any tighter!

The intention was to sit in the bath with them in a couple months time with perhaps a tiny bit of soap to loosen any dirt. HOWEVER, last night i had the pleasure of being vomited over (more of a splash back than a direct hit) by my 6 year old so i'm pretty much either going to have to give them a good wash, or stink of puke.

Question is, will sitting in the bath again with perhaps a bit more soap than previously considered and very gently rubbing (the jeans) be enough. I'm a bit worried about washing them without wearing them as my concern is that they'll shrink too much in the waist and i'll not be able to get them on again.

I'm UK based. What soap/detergent would anyone suggest.

Ta.

im looking to get a pair of raw denim for my gf. id like them to be a nice skinny fit, and dont need to be selvedge. what do you suggest?

[keendream]

you could always try those SSK nudies, dry, and fairly cheap..

If your not a fan of nudies, theres new cures by APC which are another good option.

they are both raw. so i need to soak them? they are fcking hard so i need to get some of the starch off i think.

[Tyler Durden]

didnt you just answer ur own question?

[jonle714]

do i have to though? and how much shrinking would i expect?

[gimmegimme]

Yes, you have to if they're raw. They should shrink to tagged size.

[shred_sox]

i think if you use the search bar you might find something ... and just wear them hard and i am sure they will look great in time.

sometimes the water will turn blue when you soak in the tub, if it does just make sure you wipe it off quickly and it wont stain.

thank you.

Why don't you ask him directly? Either way...what do they have to do with denim??

[pigeonk]

sorry if this question has been asked many times..

just wanted to know if there are any major differences between MIJ and MII dior 19cm's?

nothing much expect that MIJ's are made to be more slim fitting and that MII dior's stretch more than MIJ's?

anymore major differences?

what shoes are these?/

To the person asking about the Diors,

Mij are using higher quality denim, and i also believe one is smaller then another.

Go look at the first game in the Dior Homme thread in super denim...

Anyone got any denim hotspots in Vegas?

Out there for 6 days next week - even just a gaff knocking out LVC will do but keen to go flex my sterling on the good stuff.

Cheers in advance for any hints.

[poly800rock]

you have a point...

but then again, what does http://www.superfuture.com/supertalk/showthread.php?t=13257 have to do with denim?

[sedx.]

plus, im talking about the models shoes, not cmirskys.

Just wondering the general sizing on these....not too much info that I could find.

I scrolled through the ladies S&S thread and someone said dowsize by two, just wondering if this is the general consensus???

If anyone could give measurements of a pair that they have that would be great, I am hesitant to order two full sizes down (on account of booty...)

You'll have better luck getting an answer in the Supershopper SQT.

yeah, it was my bad. i remembered posting in a small q's thread once upon a time, but being the lazy pile i am, i just went to my post history. didnt realize this was the wrong one.

A quick stupid question about shipping...I ordered some jeans from Self Edge (thanks kiya and all!) and it says they were shipped, but when I go to the UPS tracking information it says " Billing Information Received" under status and has been under this status for a few days...am I just being impatient or does this actually mean anything?
