Quality of fade related to quality of denim

[Gayestmanalive]

Thanks.


Also, thanks for the surprisingly low amount of verbal abuse that was thrown towards me.
Quite a shock, I'm not crying or eating triple double triple chocolate ice cream by the quart yet..

So.. cool
Hah

I guess what I should have asked, is it worth it for someone like me?
I guess I just answered my own question.

Sweet. Eccentrics have a home here. Don't lose your patience just yet.

You are worth it. There's a reason such things as denimheads exist. And why they're permanently not satisfied. Welcome to a whole, big new world. This is why you're getting so much initial resistance and flak.

Then shut the **** up.

Word. Good start place. There's waay too much info out there to encapsulate in one thread. Even if OP meant well.

Bookmark those Sufu threads and anytime you have a denim question search there before asking because chances are it's already been asked a million times already. Especially when it comes to the commonly known brands. Basically use the search function, you can find answers faster than making a thread and waiting for replies.

Oh and when you get your jeans, whatever you decide on, forget about sick fades. Just wear them.

This statement alone is worth it's weight in gold and has been spoken a thousand ways a thousand times.

FTFY but quality of fade is a subjective thing. ive seen some nudies that look similar to those flatheads, and u dont have to buy japanese for quality denim. search ebay or ur local marshalls for RRL. that stuff is just as good. check the RRL sufu thread for proof.

Except, you know, that 95% of RRL is Japanese...

protip: your denim won't fade if your tighty whities are in a bunch about "omg i want my fades to be sick"...

Just wear them!

[underwearer]

the quality of fades is directly proportional to the use of the Sufu search function.

It's Japanese denim. While it's a far cry from calling them "Japanese jeans," they're more Japanese then they are American. Not to mention that RRL used to make them MIJ, too.

Should I soak before or after search function? Will that affect my combs?
