simple rule to buy unsanforized (STF denim). Is buy a comfortable waist size. on the looser side but should still fit without a belt never buy the denim if the waist is tight or border line tight. u will lose 1-1.15 inch in waist even with a cold soak. u will get almost an inch back after wear. Length buy 3 inches longer or even 4 if you like to cuff your denim. the length does not come back.

If you use unscented detergent then you won't be rubbing perfume on your nice jeans. I recommend using a washer and dryer. It is way easier.

Great wash. I recently got some Orslow 107 in June as my first pair of raw denim so Im curious to see what'll change once I do wash them later this fall. Love the progression videos.

I don’t think you can avoid it much! Most of the pants that i had blow outs on were a bit on the skinny side for me. I would try to maybe side up and wash your jeans more often.

Hello. Thanks for the nice and informative video. I'm a 30 but on this model the 30 got very snug on the waist, that means I should get a 32 or a 33? I have only the options of getting the same exact measures of yours 33/34 or 31/34 (they're on sale now) but I'm confused about what size should I get them. Thanks in advance. 🤓

Thank you! I would at least go to a 31 personally. Maybe a 32. Honestly it's up to how tight you like it.

For sure! I'm still pretty new so I don't have a crazy set up and I tend to go the path of most resistance. I use a Sony A7c with a 20mm 1.8 lense I think I have a mic go mic as well. Personally I would go Fuji. Looking at the X-s20. Seems like a great camera and half the price. Might sell my Sony stuff.

Hey! I have had a project pair that i have worn almost everyday and washed like 3 time in a year. At first they were a great raw indigo color but after a year and a half they came into the awkward phase where theyre not dark or light wash. If you want a vintage fade, I would recommend washing them as often as possible, and even as one of the Naked&Famous employees said, add some bleach to the wash. Im picking up a new pair because I want to achieve the "vintage levis" look and will try to wash them as often as I can. Contast fades are cool, but as someone who is into fashion its unlikely to wear the same pants everyday as well as it will take like 2-3 years for them to look decent. Hope it helps

@@JamesHerlihy not like that. It’s more like where the folds happens, there’s a streak. I googled it some people say it might be undissolved washing powder but I doubt it is, from the look of it I think it’s probably actual colour fade during the washing machine. (I’ve tried just soaking it with warm water afterward and the streak didn’t go so don’t think it’s detergent) I think the only solution I have now is to just continue wear it more and wash it more frequently so when it fades to dark grey the streak will just blend in/disappear ( I’m not too fussed with whisker or anything I just like the look of worn in jeans)
