in the post before this update, did you just put something (the leaf or whatever) to make an imprint?

thanks dude, and to answer your question yep, my gf had a gold leaf necklace that she wanted me to keep so i took the emblem off and wear it in my back pocket, im actually really pleased how the fade is turning out on it.

nice jeans man

wish i coulda picked up apair of nudes with white stitching while i had the chance,
they fit you great
ps. what does the cold rinse actually do? ive gota pair of 2 week old nudies and just wonderin what it would do to them?

critic · #32 (**permalink**) 08-08-2009, 02:40 PM

thanks and to answer your question, even tho the nudies are sanforized so some people rinse/soak them early to get the shrinking out of the way and people cold rinse to minimize shrinking and hot water to obviously maximize shrinking.

and my monthly update.

and some close ups.

i've got a pair of like year old nudies with multiple washes. would a hot soak shrink them more, or do you think it'd do absolutely nothing?

critic · #34 (**permalink**) 08-08-2009, 10:55 PM

you can pretty saftely say it wont do a thing.

shred · #35 (**permalink**) 08-09-2009, 02:38 AM

I thought nudies were sanfordized?

critic · #36 (**permalink**) 08-09-2009, 03:16 AM

ya youre right, sorry i just assumed from the large amount of shrinkage with mine that it wasnt

.NFD. · #37 (**permalink**) 08-09-2009, 04:02 PM

i figured im gonna soak my naked & famous in a hot bath. do i have to keep adding water? and do i need anything else, or just throw em in?

critic · #38 (**permalink**) 08-09-2009, 09:46 PM

nahh just fill the bathup up with water and drop em in, if they float try adding some objects to kind of hold them down, i actually have a pic from my soaking.

.NFD. · #39 (**permalink**) 08-09-2009, 09:58 PM

yeah, figured i'm not gonna do this.i need to break em in a LOT more

I just got a pair of these yesterday and it fits just right. i'm worried that it'll shrink and become too short. how can i keep then the same length or are they gonna shrink for sure after my first wash after 6 months.

You want them to fit right, after you wash they will probably stretch out again. If the inseams shrink, you can wet stretch them.

Jeans are awesome. I love the fit and the fading...now to convince the BF to get a pair!

critic · #45 (**permalink**) 01-29-2010, 12:36 PM

super random update cause ive kind of stopped tracking these

brandn3w · #46 (**permalink**) 01-29-2010, 01:30 PM

Looks awesome and the leaf detail is pretty amazing...

I like your room too, ha. See what appears to be a 20th AE GTi on the wall and the rims in the background so just gotta give that shout out to from another euro driver =]

s.rauda · #47 (**permalink**) 01-29-2010, 09:24 PM

How many months aprox do you think your at now and these have turned out pretty great so far, and am pretty jealous of the leaf idea

mmmmmm....poke n' stretch, nice!

I was on the 'darkside' for years then bought a B5 A4 as my winter beater then I, as well as everyone else, fell in love with it and searched for a newer one and sold it (and thank God my other car later) after only ~4k miles, ha. Dad spotted on Autotrader EXACTLY what I wanted: Black/Black 6MT 1.8TQ A4 USP with cold weather package and praise God for a steal! Love AWD in PA, but all around Euro is nice and even so much so my Dad bought a new Jetta TDi ;)

I need to get pictures this spring. Right now I'm on some Merc-Benz 16s for winter, ha. And as far as spending money on cars I'm done with that, hence the USP. Has everything I want already. =] I thank God I love that car, ha. These cars become money pits, ask me how I know ha...

ANYWAY!!!

Jeans look great no doubt, and approve of the dubness... ha
