| | | Post pics of your denimbirds progress
Here goes! Day 1 of wearing dry denim.........  
I hope that they do stretch out with wear because they are tight! My hands turn slightly blue when I rub them on the jeans, so I know the right thing is happening. |

| | | Those are gorgeous! I guess you have to be careful about where you sit in those! A white sofa would not be a great idea! I can't wait to see the progress!

| | this is officially my new favorite thread!
girls+dry denim=  AMAZING!
great fit on those, for sure! and yes, they should stretch a little after a week or so of wear... are you going to wear those rotated in with your normal jeans or wear em everyday? Either way, congrats on the dry's, looking great, and yes, watch out for that white couch FOR SURE!

| | Thanks! I am going to try and wear them as much as possible for the first month at least before the novelty wears off and the smell begins. |

| | | pshhh... smell!!! I have almost three months of wearing mine every day including wearing them 24 hours a day for the first month (yes I slept in them too!), many nights out partying, a three day music festival, and so far a VERY warm summer here in Sweden, and mine haven't even started to smell!!! Well, to me at least... I guess I'll see what my girlfriend says when I get home from vacation!

| | I am really pleased with the fit - especially since I have to live in these things. They have an 8" rise and no crack in back. I couldn't ask for more.  |

| | Oh sweetness, those are stunning, where did you manage to find yours/what are they called? I'm still trying to figure out what size I would wear in denimbirds, and trying to find a pair in a reasonable price. Keep posting pics!

| | | They are Denimbirds Tight. I got them from denimbaronline.com. They were having a sale. They may have a couple pairs left. For more stores in the US, you can check out the denimbirds.com website. |

| | | I got my usual size and the waist was tight at first, but now it is more comfortable. Others have recommended sizing up by one or two. |

| | Day 4: I have managed to stretch out the waist by an inch, so the jeans are now sitting more on my hips rather than at my waist. They have also stretched out more everywhere else. Don't know if this is the most flattering shot LOL, but here's what's happening.  |

| | | I still like them! How's the indigo transfer been - is everything turning blue, or not too bad?

| | | The transfer isn't really too bad. I see it on my fingernails when I rub the denim, but not on my t-shirts or underwear. Also, after I walked on concrete the bottoms of my hems turned white. |
