Hey guys, anyone know a good solution to getting coffee stains out of raw denim specifically some dry bones sfxs12's , I dumped half a cup on one leg! I dont want to wash them just yet because I only have approximately 33 days of wear on them and don't to wash them prematurely and risk not getting good deep fades and such! any advice would be appreciated!
FYI happened this morning @9:00 am cst 3-25-11
THANKS

Just wash them, you dumped half a cup. SERIOUSLY IT WON'T MAKE MUCH OF A DIFFERENCE WITH THE "FADING PROCESS".

no do not i repeat do not wash your jeans. it will negatively affect the fundamental roping and button atari aspects of your wabi-sabi creation.

just yesterday my newborn son shat on my jeans. i just gently (as to not effect the indigo) gathered the majority of the fecal matter from my thigh and placed them in the freezer to reduce the smell. they're fine now, you can just barely tell.

better yet, I just shat myself profusely in my APC New Standards. I just kinda threw them over the balcony railing and let most of it fall on people on the sidewalk below, and then by the afternoon, it was mostyl dry so I threw them back on again. Can't really tell apart from the turmeric yellow spot about 6" in diameter directly surrounding my asshole, so I'm not too worried. 6 months no wash, lol!

it will fade out... but what I would do is eat a bunch of green food dye, **** in your pants again, and hopefully the colors blend to resemble a darker blue color.
