Raw/Selvedge denim stains?

Hello, everyone. I am a new member here. I've recently made a few purchases of raw denim. I am from Kansas City, so therefore I had to support local talent by purchasing a pair of Baldwins. http://baldwindenim.com/

 

Anyways, I recently purchased ACNE, APC, Baldwin, and Nudies. This is my first time ever wearing raw denim. I love the fit as it fits you like a glove. But to get to the point, I am a guy that likes to cuff my jeans. I usually cuff it up about half an inch to an inch.  I wear lots of boots since it is autumn. I notice that I don't get jean stains on my boots but vice versa. I have the brown boot stains on my denim.. and it looks terrible. Especially me, as I like to always cuff my denim.. Is there anyway to remove that? I tried searching, but I always see denim stains on suede boots or just boots in general but not boot stains on denim.

 

Any help, suggestions, advice, tips would be greatly appreciated! Thank!

 

Here are the picture of the stains I just took and the boots that I wear..

It might come off if you wash them. You could try spot cleaning but I'm not sure how effective it'll be, how much of an effect it'll have on the denim and whether it's really worth it considering a few more wears they'll probably be right back. I still have blood stains on the inside of my jean even after a few soaks, just something you might have to live with.

Thank you for your suggestion. Unfortunately, I do not want to wash them yet because I just purchase these. I guess i'll just have to live with them.. it just looks so nasty. I wonder if it's the type of boots I am wearing?

Um, the stains don't show the way you usually wear them, right?

Jeans are meant to be worn hard and put away wet. They are not suit pants. Stains add character, like fades. Embrace the chaos.
