i passed a pair rigid levi skinners at urban outfitters, but didnt really get a good look at them (in a hurry to leave) and now im interested in getting a pair. But my question is, are they rigid, as in raw/dry? from a glance, they seemed more like a one-wash than dry denim.

There are certainly raw denim skinners. I can't be sure that those are the style you saw at Urban Outfitters, of course...

To the best of my knowledge, the "rigid" skinners are in fact raw.

there is a pair on their website that they describe as "rigid" feeling, but it is anything but. I own it and it is actually quite soft.
