No soak.

I'm considering to wash them or soak soon, should I?

don't be afraid__ water is your friend. do a cold wash + hang dry__ repeat. you don't even need to turn them inside out.

Yes, these are low rise saggy jeans. Get the slacker if you want a higher rise, think that might be the next whalls I get...Zimbabwe cotton ftw

btw, LUVed poly's Whall & whodini's RRL.



a member asked how i came up with the arcs on the Yamatos. instead of pming back, i took liberty to Xpost collated pix from other threads & share here.

1. Yamato s001jp: the new Samurai golden arcs were ripped & replaced with a hand-painted, low profile, black acrylic undulating Lee arcs. these were inspired by the Evisu Leepro's "Lazy S".

2. Momotaro 701: got started when BiG came out with the 705BIG model version. the idea on the original prototype was to install a "mirror" [inversed] image of the GTB stripes [also, in black acrylic paint].

but the cut/model seemed, too slim for my liking. so, these [literally] low-profile "Stealth" stripes came about__ as opposed to GTB's more flagrant white stripes:
