okay dude, you don't believe jeans can shrink that much? wash em and toss em in the dryer, I'm sure you will be fine

im not sayin that man, i just never owned a pair of UN-SANFORIZED DENIM ive only had SANFORIZED so i'm pretty much clueless hence why i'm on here trying to figure it out. Every pair of jeans ive had I just wore and dident wash for about 8 months....with these i'm reading you need to shrink them first?? does the indigo bleed out? or set in when you do that? I'm just trying to figure out about un-sanforized denim.

The tailor didn't leave any extra cloth to let it out a bit? Well if it does shrink I guess you can cuff them once or twice and pretend you're like those j crew models who cuff their jeans to the lower shin. Remember not to wear socks. Haha.

yeah, I wear my jeans cuffed already I have about a 1" cuff, and there pretty short. I would post some pictures if I knew how....but all in all I think i get it, dont wash/ avoid rain if possible/ dry clean only I guess;/ even if I have these jeans for 8 months(without them shrinking) I would be happy with that. I hope it goes well.
