hi guys,

u all seem to know alot about denim on this site.....for people who don't know u guys are doing a real good job.

anyways I was wondering if anyone on here has seen this jean ^^^^^ worn in before? & if so any pics? and how to go about washing them... put in a rinse or a bath or what im just not sure how to go about cleaning them. nothing like the selvedge jeans I have worn in the past. any help would be great.

thx

Are those the limited edition jeans using Kuroki denim? Indigo Farm are doing some super-fat slubby denim at the moment. Very pricey.

Just wash them like any other dark selvage denim, ie choose from the following:

Dry Clean.

Cold soak no detergent.

Cold soak + detergent (preferably PH neutral soap, non biological, no optical whiteners)

Warm machine wash (30 degrees) + detergent as above.

You're welcome.

Just to expand on the wash methods above:

Dry Clean = if you want your jeans cleaned, but want to retain the 'dry' look.

Cold soak no detergent = good if they are only a little dirty/dusty.

Cold soak + detergent (preferably PH neutral soap, non biological, no optical whiteners) = good if you need to remove more greasey stains like food.

Warm machine wash (30 degrees) + detergent as above - this will remove more indigo, so good for lightening up your jeans.

this sounds like the plan as they have not been washed for about a year perfect..... keep the knowledge flowing

They should look great!

Oh, I forgot to add, turn them inside out before washing. You may need to rub a bit of soap into the greasy areas beforehand
