that's why i said you can wash them whenever you want. at the end of the day, it's all about preference.Originally Posted by airblaster503

the fading that occurs is just the indigo rubbing off wherever there is wear and abrasion. you wash them whenever you want, but the standard is usually around the 6 month mark. of course, you can wash them before or many months after that. it's all about preference.
the wash takes away more indigo from the jeans, creating a more contrasted result.
pics for examples:
Let me start out by saying I wear raw denim, I own several pairs and have tried many different ways of getting fades. Now there is no reason to not wash your jeans in the washing machine for 5 years. Some of the best faded Samurais I have seen were washed each month since the day the dude bought them. Plus washing them keeps the fibers stronger and prevents blowouts. Just throw them in there inside out with woolite dark and wash on delicate, and remove to hang dry before going through the spin cycle. And no offense to Ty, but for 4-5 years those Nudies look terrible. They are supposed to fade quick, I could rock a pair and in 6 months having them look like that.
and btw, that's nothing for even 6 months worth of wear. just sayin'.
