Can you turn a pair of slim straights into a tapered fit, or is that weird?

Lol I have. I've had slim straights hemmed and I've had tapered pairs tapered further, but I've never had slim straights tapered.

Might be too drastic of a fit to tailor, but if you do it let us know the results.

Iron Heart? Pretty expensive but they have dropped in price due to the value of the Yen. Picked up some IH 301s last week for 325$

I grabbed a distressed pair of J Brand "Mick" jeans in black from Neiman Marcus, not sure what cut you're looking for they're skinny but stretch I believe retail was $298

Yea you can. I had samurais s500 (straight fit) tapered by railcar. They did a pretty good job overall but I got the leg opening way too small so it looks kinda dumb when I cuff them. Just be wary of the leg opening.

I used woolite dark. Soaked it in the tub for about an hour, rinsed, and hang dry outside.

So my jeans actually got washed and then put in the dryer, is there anything I can do to get the wrinkles out and get back to my sic fadez?
Would steaming them and then starching them work?

You can iron out the wrinkles but it might screw up the whiskers and combs if they're overlapping. Honestly don't worry about it, the worst a dryer does is actually shrink your denim

Just wear them. The wrinkles will come out, especially due to it being summer and the humidity and everything. Don't put an iron to jeans.

Great value for what you get. Depending on how many people are supporting it, it can take up to two months before you receive it. Fit is great also

Cool. Thinking about copping a pair. Seems like a decent entry into the world of raw denim.

Acne can do no wrong by me, especially when I pick up their stuff on sale.
