if you prick us, do we not bleed?

so i have had my rescues for a few weeks now and have worn them every single day, except for when i go to sleep. however, i haven't noticed ANY bleeding from the jean. this is a bit weird as when i talked to the guy in the APC store he said the indigo would get all over everything. what gives?

[Geowu]

They do bleed. But it's minimal. I only noticed some bleeding on my shoes... it gives them a nice blue tone, I actually like it

my kicks look so much better wiv the blue tint on the tongue an round the ankles!

It might be related to the weather and humidity. I'm the same way, none of my raw jeans have ever bled on anything except my shoes, yet other people with the same jeans have ruined furniture and/or turned into smurfs.

Wow, lucky you! My pair has gotten blue dye on almost everything white that it has touched. Blue tinge on my white adidas may look cool if it were uniform but they left a blue ring! You know what else I have that bleeds .. my 5EP jeans, and they're not even dry denim.

where you live, shinobi?

[shinobi2000]

In good ol NYC where it has only recently begun to warm up after some uncharacteristically cool weather. I don't think it's the weather, might be just plain luck. You know which pair of jeans I was worried about? -- my BC4000 indigo black 45rpms look, smell and feel like they'll bleed all over everything but surprisingly they haven't.

the more bleeding the better! that bleeding means high contrast fades!

My pair of Edwin SENs still bleed after 3 years of hardcore wear, and they where pre-washed.

...no, im not serious about the name...

coolhunter, that's interesting... pics?!

so is it a bad thing that my jeans aren't bleeding?? is there anyway can make em bleed more?

[rhythmandsound]

my apc's are not bleeding (except onto my shoes a bit) and that's a -good- thing.

[coolhunter]

they still bleed quite a bit if you wear white sneakers and if its hot enough or im sweaty enough I stay away from white sofas

...no, im not serious about the name...

holy shit those are unwashed!?!?!!
