Haha, honestly though you need no practice, just buy a nice pair of jeans and wear them. Just wear them naturally and you'll get the effect. Don't go out of your way doing something you wouldn't normally do. If you're thinking about the next level, I recommend either APC New Standards(remember to size down two) or Nudies Average Joe Dry Heavy. They're both in the 150 range. Don't try and get to complicated with Flat Heads oranything hahaOriginally Posted by 916shoehead
501s are basically my practice before i step up to something more expensive..

I don't soak any of my Evisu's.Originally Posted by SoHi 23
I need help.
I got these for a really good deal, but I don't know too much about Jeans/Denim.
What should I do?
I've worn them around 4 times all ready.
Was I supposed to soak them before I wore them?
Can I still do it now if I need to?
Am I ok to just rock them?
Thanks for any help.
Most people i know soak them before wearing.
You can soak now, if you desire to.
You're good fam, i'd personally just rock them stiff.

imperial dukes, dont size down very much though if any. imperials stretch but are tight fitting to start with.
youre just looking for a straight tapered fit. thats what new standards on, like a slim straight
flathead and samurai also have awesome cuts if your wallets fat

My question was probably already answered, but i don't have time to go through all the pages, so I would appreciate it if yall can help me out.
Whats the best way to wash and get that stiffness back in the STF's? Will soaking them in cold water and then air drying them work? Or is there anothermethod?
Also, same question goes for selvedge denim.....how would I go about washing those??
Thanks!!

Inside out either hot or cold water depending on how muck you want them to shrink then hang dry them
OR
Toss them in the washing machine delicate cycle (turn them inside out)
I'd choose option #1

How is the weight/feel of that denim? Is it soft and thin (looks that way) or is it a lil rigid with a lil weight to it? I was interested in those andanother pair with similar denim, I just don't like thin/light denim.
