  1. i have to take a look at that I don't believe japanese mills use artificial indigo since they grow their own and make their own dye...what would be the use of the artificial stuff
  2. its just a faster and cheaper way to make denim tbh but you are right about the water consumption....artificial indigo uses up soooo much broski
  3. i didn't even know....that is fucking rad i love hearing about this because krew was literally my go to pants since 7th grade
  4. holy fuck i remember altamont being this tired ass skate company they got selvedge????
  5. krew waxed denim...i had sooooo many of these jeans i was a huge fan of their skate team edit: oh shit....you're right its Krew x crooks and castles selvedge
  6. CROOKS AND CASTLES SELVEDGE wtf....you lying
  7. when i was a little shit i wore alot of Krew skate jeans and most of their stuff was waxed denim non selvedge
  8. @swif1the unbranded jeans are skeleton skinny then they stretched out at the top box what's the weight on your denim?
  9. you were right about the stretching...soaking them would def make them a smaller size again
  10. @swif1 @mr.yuck @CLICKCLACKONER 10 days for the supreme joints 20 days for the unbranded brands
  11. hey bro, sorry to hear your troubles...that's some heavy shit to go through. But you got the homies here. Our gym hasn't opened up yet....fuck yea, get it
  12. do it...you'll make a fucking killing sell each pair for 700 the thing is, this trend came about because mexicans in Los Angeles who work construction are seen walking around in their work pants. it's fucking classist
  13. that's the dumbest fucking trend ever that is truly about the look and idk this shit's stupid
  14. those same hipsters are the ones that put rules on how to wear, what to do, and where to find denim. the back cinch is for the cosplayers trying to dress like artisans and builders that existed back in the 1800's I mean, if that's what you want then cool, but don't go around condemning the casuals who aren't into dressing like a lynch mob
  15. bro, i can't wait to hear your thoughts on them...you're gonna get hooked
  16. The japanese are fucking obsessed
  17. aaah...i got you yea, i will never get my raws tapered...there's only one real garment that transcends all fashion trends, its fucking raw denim
  18. do you ever go to self edge for hemming and tapering id think theyd be the best choice since youre close to them
  19. if you guys live in NYC, there's an indigo dye workshop in brooklyn called Buaisou they're run by 4 japanese indigo farmers and dye artisans
  20. For hardcore japanese brands, a la blue blue japan, they use traditional dip and squeeze dyeing for their cotton they rope the cotton out, bundle it up, then just continuously dip then squeeze for however long they want in natural plant indigo dye. just for the dyeing process it could take weeks to get the color because plant dye doesn't stay dark for long in oxygen and sunlight.
  21. i'm behind the curve, son....I'm copping a pair from brave star next
