I definately regret paying $185 on these bad boys. Its been almost 4 months wearing them really hard every damn day, but I cant produce any damn fades. However, thats not the reason why I despise them so much. I actually like the black colour.

Its the ******* stretching. Its ridiculous, after playing soccer in them for three months the shape looks like ****. The knee area portrudes one inch out when standing, and the tube leg silhouette looks like a boot cut now. The outseam curves outwards in the thigh area. I sized down 1 in the waist, and its stretched out three!! The ass is completely saggy now. Only when I wear them high I can get a decent fit. What the **** happened to my jims? Should I wash them, retire em', or buy some ande whalls?

You wore them for three months straight and friggin' played soccer in them. Yes, they are going to lose their shape. They are made of out cotton. Geez, kevlar would lose its shape after that type of usage. Wash and flat dry them, and they'll get their shape back. Of course, know that they'll lose their shape again. Here's a good algorithm. Tightness of jeans X roughness of wear = 1/time it will take for them to lose their initial shape.

Yeah, if you want the dramatic contrast fading you have to go with stuff dyed with natural indigo.

How could you have played soccer in jeans and not have washed them for 3.5 months? They must smell like ass.

Is it just on Fridays now? I remember seeing people out there playing almost every morning when it first started up.
