Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck that sounds horrible. You’re a better man than me I would have been on video and an internet meme if that happened to me

I dry clean all of my JE jeans. Never had issues with a change in wash color/quality etc. I actually find that they seem to go back to their original fit (at times even fitting better than they did when I bought them) after dry cleaning them too.

May just be the cleaners you went to but I swear by it.
It was a work related trip so my entire office was on the plane with me, I had to let it got and not make a scene. Huh, maybe next time I will try a different dry cleaners.

Zabo getting jeans dry cleaned shouldn't change the color of your jeans. Only thing that could possibly do that is a stain remover, but it sounds like the damage is to the entire wash and not just the parts where the stains were. Sorry to hear that though man.

Correct, the entire wash of the jeans seems a shade lighter and he "yellow" effect on the jeans has slightly faded away. **** happens I guess, what can you do?

That's not unheard of, I dry cleaned my Plumas and the dark oily colored part of the wash was removed

Hmmm might have to do that with one of my Obsidians that has stretched...

what do you mean by even fitting better? are they more snug/fitted? do you normally size up when you take your jeans? that kinda worries me because my jeans are pretty sung due to bigger thighs and if anything I would need a bit more of a stretch in them.

I know theres a JE buy/sell page, but wanted to post here because I remember a couple people talking about missing out on the full zip shirt during the SS sale a few pages back. I'm selling mine, BNWT, sz. M for what I paid plus shipping ($180+$5). Feel free to PM me.

For JE shorts if I wear size 31 or 32 in JE denim, I should go medium on all of them except the panel and soccer shorts (which ran small) for a fitted look right?

Also side by side of washed charcoal vs washed black basalt. I highly prefer the washed black. The charcoal looks really nice in this pic however in person it’s much lighter than washed black. It doesn’t look as nice in person compared to the picture. Also, idk if u can tell but the neck opening on the charcoal seems much smaller. When I tried it on I thought the shirt was backwards at first because the neck was super tight.

Washed black does look amazing. Has that been released in Anti Expo yet...or is it likely to be?

I wash mine on delicate cold with woolite and hang dry. I once dry cleaned a pair of og cast’s in carbon and it was returned to me much stiffer, with the light accents removed so it looked like a pair of jet black obsidians. It probably depends on the dry cleaner but I’ll never take that risk again.
