Washing Raw Denim will result in immediate disintegration. Avoid at all costs.

How many times will we continue to fall for superfuture trolls? I'm guessing a lot...

instead of taking them off to wash leave them on and instead of water use fire- leaves them dark and crisp.

All clothes can get fades representative of the wear you put into them. I have a pair of boxers I haven't washed since middle school, the stains I MEAN FADEZS are awesome.

this guy was really helpful in the eyeglasses thread. you guys need to chill

The longer you go without washing them the better the contrast will be once you finally give them a wash. Really they don't get stinky, I've go around 6 months before washing them and I work in a factory sweating ****** off.

Thanks for the info.

Seems like I offended some people by asking a dumb question, but there are lots of dumb questions in the eyewear threads too.

My RRLs are starting to get smelly (there is a specific classroom that I am in 1-2 days a week where it gets hot and I start smelling my pants...) and they have been worn pretty consistantly since mid december. Leaving them outside overnight in the frozen chicago winter seemed to freshen them up a bunch a few months ago. Putting them in a bag in the freezer did not replicate that freshnesss...

I ate at a flat top grill the other day and on the back of the menu they suggest spraying clothes with vodka so you don't have to wash them. Vodka kills all the smelly bits but evaporates to leave no odor. I tried it but don't think I used enough vodka...
