No idea why my other post was closed. Maybe because of the use of "TMM".

Alright, I'll change the name

Some of you know my love for raw denim, and I hope I convinced you to buy a pair.

I'm going to be getting a brand new pair, hopefully by tomorrow (fuckin USPS is taking forever haha) and I was thinking of taking before pictures of my denim and then update every month or so to show the natural fading and distressing of the denim.

Anyone wanna take me on?

Rules:
1) At least one (1) picture of the denim, can be either on yourself or on the floor.
2) You must tag the photo with your username. AKA no fake pictures.
3) No pre distressed denim. Raw, dry, unwashed, one wash denim etc is fine

I'd be interested. Depends on how the first couple of weeks go at my new job

I'm still kind of ignorant when it comes to fashion, so what EXACTLY is raw denim? Or dry, one wash etc...?

i'll go at it.

i'm working on a pair of RRDS right now - about 1.5mo old with 3-4 wears/week.

however i do have an RRDG and an RRL that are unworn...

EDIT: for the above poster - raw/unwashed/dry refers to denim that hasn't been processed in any way after the dying. it's dyed, cut, sewn, and there you go. if you go to your local department store and find the levis 501 shrink-to-fits (STF)...that's them. they're usually very stiff at first, but soften up as you wear them. basically, you wear them as long and hard as you can without a wash (6months +) and at the first washing the indigo will come out of the creases and other distressed areas - eventually you get a natural looking pair of distressed jeans that are molded to fit your body and lifestyle.

that's pretty basic, but google dry denim for more info or check out the forums at www.mynudies.com or www.superfuture.com.

Ok, so the mailman JUST came then. A few days late, but whatevs. I have just taken pictures then, so these jeans are like a 100% unworn virgin haha

Things to note:

I know, I need a belt. I have cool green canvas one I wear, but I didn't take a picture with it on. I'm looking for something that would go with the sneakers that is leather.

Having a hard time finding something.

Jeans are a little long, which is great. I need to cuff 'em a little more I think, but I like the stacking look. Haven't gotten used to the jeans, duh haaha

T-shirt I'm wearing is a dirty old gym T, in case anyone was wondering....

Also if your wondering, my tag is the back of the package my jeans came in haha!
