Hey all! I am new to this board as a user, however I have been lurking for a few weeks now, catching up on all the nitty gritty about denim as I am quite new to the whole denim scene. For the most part, most of my questions have been answered thanks to other quite informative posts. Hopefully my reading up on things will keep my noobish questions to a minimum. However i am left with one question, that is: Soaking.
I Just purchased a pair of Gap Raw Indigo jeans (please do not hate, its the best I could do with the small budget I have for the time being. Plus, for essentially my first pair of raw indigo denim, I was a little lenient about spending too much.)
What is the best way to go about wearing these jeans. Should I soak prior to wearing for the first time, or should I wear them as long as possible without going for a soak. Also, what would be more appropriate, a cold or warm soak? Lastly, if an initial soak is suggested, how long should that soak be for? Essentially my goal, just as everyone else, is to have a nice pair of unique jeans, whiskered, honeycombed and faded
Thanks all for taking the time to help me out!
