  • Can you just buy off the warehouse in London Fileds?

  • Warehouse? The beyawesome Japanese boutique denim marque? Now you're talking...

    Yeah, gonna head down to the Carhartt warehouse tomorrow...

  • Let me know Slain, how it goes, if they have it, please.

  • Sorry, sold out...

  • Anyway... Don't you live right next to that place, you fucking lazy cunt?

    do people actually do that "wear everyday for 2 years before showing them a bowl of water" thing?
    don't they get a bit grubby?

  • had my current acnes for about 14 months before i washed them, no grub here

    Yep! The longest i've gone without washing a vintage pair of levis was 4 years and they stank like puke etc mixed up! If the jeans were worn a warm day it wasn't a good thing!

  • I saw this dry denim thing when looking at some Nudie jeans and thought it had to be a windup.

    Is it really true that you are expected to leave them unwashed for 18 months?

  • no it's a hoax

  • Phew!

    I had thought that it was a modern day ironic take on hanging your furs in the garde robe so that the smell of the obvious kept the moths away

  • Surely this has been done before. Not a wind up, just put them in the freezer overnight every now and then and they're fine.

    Shit, hate getting pulled into this nonsense. If you know, you don't need to ask - if you don't know, tough...

  • The freezer removes the smell I take it, then they're ok for another couple of weeks?

    This is all new to me.

    I did really like my jeans, and disappointed at the lifespan, it is starting to look as though I killed them by washing them too often?

  • That's it

  • Golly.

  • If you know, you don't need to ask - if you don't know, tough...

    an american once said to me "if you don't get it, no point explaining it"

    quite liked that

  • not that it has anything to do with this, just came to think of it

  • ie, not aimed at you dammit

  • i'll shut up now

  • I know it, but I'm just too self-conscious about it. They get washed more than is good for them.
    Also, London's famous London is kinda filthy.

  • Golly.

    Racist

  • golly
    "euphemism for God, first recorded 1775, in a source that refers to it as "a sort of jolly kind of oath, or asseveration much in use among our carters, & the lowest people."

  • Typical of your kind

  • Does my blaspheming offend you?

  • It also means 'to spit'.

    You dirty racist.
