Help I think I am screwed

[Guest DenimBar1]

I just got stuck in the HUGEST Thunderstorm. I am wearing my RR Dry nudies. I have be so good to them for the past 3months. They are soaked. Do you think they are ruined or can I dry them fast and they won't get fucked up or am I over reacting?

[darknworn]

i'd say use a washing towel to reduce the moisture and just hang dry them. if you toss them in the dryer, the high heat will accelerate the pigment loss prematurely. you're probably not that screwed, but i don't think there's any other solution.

thanks. I am still at work so a dryer is out of the question. I took them off to dry and picked up a pair of RR authentic deluxe ( pros of having a denim store)

Thanks for the advice.

[Dangydang]

You'll be fine since the indigo really has no where to run.

Its official...you're gay

[powerglov]

Yes, I would definitely say you are overreacting if you are freaking out about your jeans getting wet.

chill out man, i bought my RR's durring a thunderstorm then put em on to run though it. it wont fuck em up at all, now getting queso on your pants will.....

chwa?

They're done for. Give them to Goodwill and buy another pair.

And this time around, please take care of them. Don't get them wet, stained, sweaty, or unduly stretched. EVER. Spray them with Nudie starch before each wearing, then do some GENTLE Pilates or Jazzercise to set the creases. Sand lightly with a fine-grit Kyushu river stone in desired wear areas. Clean with an ostrich feather duster after each day of wear, and vacuum weekly, taking care to place a piece of clean cheesecloth between the jeans and the vacuum nozzle to prevent unwanted abrasion. Store in a dark, well-ventilated cabinet away from perishable foodstuffs between 20-25C.

There's been a lot of people that have gotten caught in rain with their dry Nudie's and they've all turned out fine. I think as long as you just hang them up to dry, they'll be fine.

[Serge d Nimes]

Wow, don't worry. I don't think you have anything to worry about. A rinse is nont gonna change anything. From now on, follow rabbit punch's instructions.

Denim Bar, you're jeans will be fine. This will probably help more than hurt anyway. I get my APC's (rescue) wet whenever I can and they are coming along great (i'll post pics after i finish their conversion to boot cut).

[pressproduction]

well, i honestly dont care......i just dont think if you folks know where you jeans come from, and i know....i know where seven wash there jeans, i know where von dutch wash their jeans, i know who sews jeans for true religion, i been to those places....and its not pretty. i know the ins and outs of this business, i just reflect the ugly truth about it, in fact i have no problem people spend their money buying jeans at 180 and up, and i have no problem poeple are making lucrative money on it. just like there is tons of people welling-ly to pay few hundred bucks for a pair nike dunk, and the only cost no more than 10 USD to produce.

all i did was to reflect they way things are...and people tends to think thats ignorant...i wish i could show you folks just what kind of place those places are....it really isn't pretty...have you ever seen a warehouse stuck with more than 200 people stand side by side for 8-10 hours a day just to do the whisker on the jeans ( the fade effect on jeans done by hand sanding....) and thats no joke....no AC no NOthing....

[Serge d Nimes]

What you don't realize is that these are RAW jeans with no washing and no sanding done to them. I think we are just a little too fashion forward for that crap.

If you're so concerned with these working conditions, then you should be glad that we're breaking in our dry jeans the way we are.

[pressproduction]

well, as long as you are happy..........have fun with your jeans.....

[pressproduction]

i thougth levis introduce raw jeans a long time ago.........................so yeah.....

[blackcactuschoir]

Yeah dude i hear you, raw denim is like so totally played, its not like 1956 guys, and Mossimo has some totally rad washes dropping at Target, like Pharell is totally rocking that shit right now.

This dude i know who like works for Diesel says winter 06 we can expect some big shit, cotton/kevlar/poly/stretch zathan with waxed finish and hand distressing. Its like jeans from the future that have already been worn that youll be able to buy at urban outfitters. Paper, Rogan, Sewn, Seven, and like everybody are gonna get their shit MESSED up.

Yeah.

Like for serious, everyone, am i the only one thinking "fucking bad crinkles and contrast, the piss really puts it over," when you bum cigarettes to homeless dudes? Can't just be me.

The extra waist in APCs is probably for depends, can't take them off for shit, there supposed to be lived in for christs sake, thats why the jeans on the nudie website look so ill. Lowering your fly to piss is like totally dishonest, its way worse than hand sanding. And the male body produces some of the best starches around if you know what i mean, totally way better than corn startch and water. You'll have center creases you can cut throats on, youll be a total star at the cowboys of color benefit rodeo.

There are some total poseurs on this board. Just can't hang with real denim fiends.
