dealing with people who dont know wtf dry denim is

[kiz]

i'm in highschool and i'm the only kid who has seen, let alone wears dry denim. they see me wearing the same pants everyday and they're like wtf i thought this kid was stylish. i dont feel like explaining it to them either because its extremely annoying and i doubt they'd believe/understand anyway. what do you guys do for the haters who come to notice that you havent changed your jeans in a few weeks?

[M4TM]

you're just too cool for school.

No Shirt. No Shoes. No Dice.

Learn it. Know it. Live it.

i'm never gonna let something as petty as peer pressure dictate what i wear and don't. i like to consider myself as one of the individuals at my school that can do their own thing and start trends and be daring (everyone thinks this of themselves of course), however i was just wondering if there was some easy explanation you give people when they're like hey, you wear those jeans a lot.

the other day a few friends of mine were in a group and i was just walking into the room and i heard them say" he's been wearing those jeans for like 5 days" in a low voice like i wouldn't hear. so i went up to them and corrected him saying it's been two weeks and gave them a huge grin

I'm not accepted by my peers - so what

I could care less about those queers - they're fucked

The chicks are hot and full of cheers - teasers

They say 'no' so i jerk white tears - pleasers

i hate them all - creatures

i hate all them - creatures

etc.

that song should be your high school anthem

[psyiko]

just say:

i like dirty things between my legs, i learned it from your mom.

then line up all their faces and multi-slap those bitches.

[stickykrylon]

buddy, just do what you gotta do. back in the day, i was given shit for wearing baggy jeans and hoodies all the time, no too mention I had different colored hair all the time..

high school can be a messed up time for those who have interests other than football, amesty international and the yearbook.. don't sweat young ignorance..

as for explanations - you're a smart kid.. let them in on what they don't know.

dig.

When it rains (a lot lately here) I wear a very different pair of jeans hehe

then when I come back home I change to my dry denim and try to wear it for as much as possible for the rest of the day. I'm not in High School though, in College I don't even see the same people everyday and they couldn't care less about waht you wear so it's not a problem really. Just change the jeans to not catch rain on my dry ones.

[docdoom]

Hehe, my girl aint too keen on the fact ive been wearing the same edwins for the past month and did about 2 months before than in them without a wash!

[docdoom]

And i guess people think its strange that i get excited by what looks to them like just another pair of dark stiff jeans, but we know how much fun is contained within that item!

[phaseCOMPLETE]

You wouldn't happen to be the same StickyKrylon that posts on 12oz Prophet and Bombing Science are you?

the next time i have to talk to you, you wont be alive enough to hear it

[stickykrylon]

probably, and crooked tongues too, but I never go on those sites really.

dig.

[justaname]

just quit school and you won't have that problem anymore but if you don't want to quit then just IGNORE THEM! if you are an individual then why the fuck would you care!!

ok just quit school then you will be happy... school is for losers you know

?

is nearly everyone in this forum in high school?

[thedonger]

Yo I think its wrong for high school kids to be fixated on expensive clothes. You kids should be spending your time thinking about girls, masturbating, skating, playing video games, huffing glue, or whatever kids do nowadays.

[Brienneoftarth]

thedonger....i couldnt agree with u more...

[kiz]

yea i'm wearing APC rescues. at first they were like oh hahaha nice tight jeans. but i pointed out that they werent actually tight, and now they comment on how long i've been wearing them. that wont be anything compared to when thye see me in them next winter break home from college . also this girl i just played told her friends that one of the main reasons she liked me was my style....so in the end i win.

[krush021]

my dry selvage helped me get into my spanish teachers panties.

[docdoom]

served a great purpose then!!

[yen_kid0]

haha "dry selvage....is there anything it can't do?"

Try it, you'll like it!

[andewhall]

Man I love dry selvage. My town has just got this new retail store, I think it's modeled on Selfridges? They have Regular Ralf Dry Selvages......very nice indeed. $360 NZD how much are they in the states/europe?

[andewhall]

Hey down with IB, you got some of those Adidas 35th aniversary Ian Brown editions? They look nice as.

[AmericanTemplar]

After all of this, I still don't know wtf dry denim is. Is it shrink to fit, or just denim that's not fucked up by the maker's to look old? I'm I in the ballpark?

[Geowu]

dry denim is the one that has never been washed. Straight from the loom to the store.

[snapcult]

Shit two weeks is nothing, I got my first pair of dry denim jeans in college and wore them for two years before I got them dry cleaned, I wore those shitz everyday too, in the summer, skateing, to shows, camping, total cowboy style.

Maybe get a few pair and rotate them out every couple days, that's my new rotation, 2 days them back to the bottom of the pile, well not really a pile, I used to work retail so I can fold a cracker if I had to.

[AmericanTemplar]

Two more questions: Are pre-shrunk jeans dry denim? Do you guys buy shrink to fit jeans and wear them around for months before washing them? You don't mind them being ill-fitting for a couple of months?

[snapcult]

I just buy the unwashed Levis lvc's and never wash them. I might dry clean them once a year or so if I wear them a lot.

[AmericanTemplar]

So do you buy your exact size? What's wrong with giving them the bathtub treatment and then hang drying them? It seems impracticle not to be able to wear your jeans in the rain, and to always be worrying about getting them wet. I'd be worried that if they got wet, the color might run onto my shirt.

[kiz]

i wear my rescues in the rain...a few drops dont hurt them, but i haven't ever gotten them soaked or anything like that. just wear your damn jeans and stop worrying over the little things. These jeans were made to be WORN
