re: What makes for high quality raw denim jeans?

I live in Bay St Louis MS and I had them hemmed by a local seamstress. That hem was coming out and it looked like shite, so I had it redone. You'd be surprised how tough the fabric is and how few true denim stores there are in the area. Mailing them off to have it done correctly seemed like the best choice. I wouldn't buy another pair of 34.5 inseam pants, but that's all Unbranded offered. I hope to never have to mail off a pair of jeans for anything ever again.

I thought it would head off stupid questions. See how that went?

$220 dollars separates them....and those shoes are terrible.
Isn't this your second jean thread? Man up and buy some jeans from Target. Actually my last pair was a $19 pair of Magellen from Academy. They look better than those filthy things you have on.

I've saved a ton by not washing them.

I had a pair of 201s and they were too wide, got them tapered and they fit like 101s now. I've had them for about 14 months, one wash and two soaks. Fades are pretty damn good, but I'm about to shelve them and get a pair of APC.

And in the mirror/"art" aisle at TJ Maxx, no less.

Denim man. Are you listening to yourself?

Well, to be fair, you really don't need to wash denim all that much, as long as they're not getting shite all over them.

Either y'all are trolling or are the filthiest motherfrickers I have ever come across.
Is that the new cool hipster thing? To be as nasty as possible?

I was so close to having Railcar taper them, the hem would have been free, but they wanted measurements at three locations down the leg and I just didn't know what I wanted. I'll wear these out and get a more tapered pair next. APC just a better cut with higher quality stitching, or the denim itself is better.
How long did you wait for the first wash?

Someone found the irony.

Probably 6 months or so, then did the first soak. Then another 3 months or so for another soak, then a wash at one year. Really makes the fades come in.

I ain't hating - I'd know those shelves and price tags anywhere.
