  • Obviously a wildly subjective question, but how much wear before jeans soften?

    Don’t get me wrong, I surreptitiously enjoy the cardboard sandpapering on my goofy while out and about as much as the next man - adds a definite frisson of excitement to my visit to Morrison’s, especially when you get a knowing nod at the self-service checkout - but 7 months in I thought they might be a touch more pliable?

    For context they are 14.5oz Unbranded

  • Have you done a soak? I think the rule of thumb is anywhere between 30 to 50 wears to get totaly nice and soft.

  • I reckon I’ve worn them at least 50 times, have soaked them and have washed them cold. Still pretty stiff.

    Reckon next step is to thrash them with a stout stick, perhaps beech
