Haha, glad to see someone else throws their beloved jeans to the washing machine as well. True what Ribena said above about them sweaty jeans. Main I am staying in Singapore for the moment and it is just to say quite warm here. So after few days you really feel like washing your jeans. Hey if they're high quality, they can sure take a spin or two, haha. Also I have realised that my TYOs start to look even better with some wear and a few washes.
welcome spartan. good point about the intro thread. i think most people go here: Welcome to RMC Forum but the thread gets lost in the posts. it would be a good idea to make the intro thread more prominent. i'll suggest the idea in the ideas thread, if i can find it
Dont blame you Damyion, when you have an expensive collection you gotta look after them, after all you wouldnt take a Ferrari through a car wash would you?
I just bought a new pair of Evisu's one from their heritage line. I got them one size too big should I just wash them to shrink 'em? But I'm sort of worried about the color fading significantly.
I found that although my No1 Evisu shrunk considerably in the wash at 90 degrees wash, it didnt experiance any loss of colour that I could notice which suprised me. Maybe put them on just a low temp, say 40 degrees and dont tumble dry them just allow them to dry naturally after straightening them out. This should be sufficient to shrink them down by an inch or so on the waist and about the same maybe a bit more on the leg. Just dont go overboard with the temperature or it cold shrink too much and make them too small instead.
