Hello,

I'm thinking of getting a raw jeans to work on. After reading a fair bit online, I see that flat head and pure blue japan seems the most attractive since its available in mandarin gallery and seems premium and from japan. I would most prefer a black one too.

What do you guys think?

Also, a question on my Evisu Lot 2000 No.1 Special hand painted jeans. (one-wash)

I machine washed them twice (within the first two weeks because the indigo was staining my shoes) before i started reading all these.

From what I read, it will just be alot harder to achieve fading even with daily wear. Is this true?

@newtothis haha yeah, not too happy about the info.

What is it about machine washing that ruins the jeans?

If i wear it daily without washing for a year lets say, it wouldn't achieve the fade I want because?

it has lost too much indigo for the obvious fade to set ?

U wouldn't achieve the fade u want because, ur activities might not be so rough like others, for example, GUY "A" is a skater, he wear it every day and his denim will be a lot of creases, marks, and better contrast. GUY "B" is a normal guys that go watch movie, school and shopping and of course his creases , marks and contrast not so good as GUY "A". This example based on same number of days worn.

what u mean by > it has lost too much indigo for the obvious fade to set ??

Cheers! =D

Why not try something tt is not selling in SINGAPORE? =) i recommend MOMOTARO. If u happen to be in japan, look for tt jeans. The finest jeans ever, not many people will wear MOMOTARO because it doesnt have skinny cut. but u seems love to wear slim.=D So far ive never seen people wearing MOMOTARO DENIM in singapore.

Cheers! =)
