Ok:

There are several methods for washing. Most recommend if you wear your jeans constantly wait at least 6 months to wash them in hot water with detergent then hang dry them. Another method is to wear them into the ocean (not dirty oceans!) and then rinse them out with fresh (non salted) water and hang dry them. While you do not have to wait so long to wash your jeans, you will get the highest contrast fades if you wait since when you wash them the creases you created will be washed out and you might not get the creases in the same place, thus slowing down the fading. If your jeans aren't that dirty, try soaking them instead. What does soaking do? Soaking cleans the denim, shrinks, and removes starch. Fill a bath tub full of water and lay the jeans inside out flat to float. Place bottles or something heavy on each leg and side to sink the jeans. The hotter the water, the more they will shrink. If your jeans aren't that dirty but just stink, fabreeze them.

And next time OP, please post on the pinned "I have a jean...(The Ultimate Jean Help/Question/Recommendation Thread For Beginners)"

Look! a helpful and yet not-derogatory response? COULD IT BE...

the problem is that the sticky threads are there for a reason, and when you start being nice to people that are too lazy to follow the rules, and you answer their questions in their special flower threads, they keep making threads for their random little questions rather than use the stickies or the search function.

its like a kid screaming for candy, and your response is to give them the candy, but also tell them to ask nice next time. of course they're not going to learn their lesson, because screaming for candy worked, didn't it.

Ok. That is very reasonable.

However I think that the OP was polite (if anything, fearful of retribution) and simply did not notice that there were pinned threads. I mentioned that next time it would be helpful that he did take notice of them.

Of course, I am implying a certain level of maturity in OP. We are in "style forum" of course.

On the topic of raw denim...got my Men Without a Country Mauro Pant a few days ago. Very happy with them! Looks like he restocked recently as well.

So you're basically telling this guy he needs to travel to the Indian Ocean to wash his damn jeans?
