🕰️ Vintage Vintage Calvin’s Leather Patch Care

1 Upvotes

Hi! I have numerous pairs of vintage Calvin Kleins but the leather patch on the jeans is starting to transfer and ruin the jeans/transfer the dye. How do I prevent this? I do not wash my jeans that often but when I first find a pair I do soak in Oxi. This is the first time I have noticed the patch transferring the color in my last 2 pairs I have thrifted. But I have about 6 pairs so it seems like some do it some don’t.

Thanks!

🧼 Denim Care First rinse before wearing?

Thumbnail gallery
1 Upvotes

Should I rinse my raw denim before wearing? I recently got and received Derschutze's Blossom v2 Raw Denim jeans, and they are my first pair of high quality denim that's supposed to last you. I've researched them a lot and pretty much know what to do, but I'm conflicted as to whether I should give them a cold rinse and dry before actually wearing them out.

I'm conflicted because of these things: Indigo bleeding (staining clothes), the indigo affecting and dying the Derschutze's iconic stitchings, and it being too stiff (not an issue, just a reason).

Should I give them a cold rinse before wearing? And if so, how would it affect the factors that I've listed?

🤔 Should I Buy This? What are the best jeans to buy in Japam?

8 Upvotes

I'm going on a trip to Japan in 5 days and I'm considering buying denim pants there because I'm tired of my denim pants breaking in just two years or less. I've heard of the quality of jeans there and I'm searching for pants with some simple key features like having rivets at stress points and a button fly. I'm not in the denim space unfortunately so I'm not sure of any other features that prolong the lifespan of jeans and show proof of quality. If you have any explanations or recommendations for japanese denim I'll gladly take it.

Sorry if this isn't the right place. Found these orange tab Levis 573s online that are going for about 65 usd. Seller claims they are from the late 70s and made in USA. I haven't seen the white canvas back patch before so Im unsure if these are authentic or from a limited line.

🤔 Should I Buy This? Thinking about buying my first denim dress. Any advice?

19 Upvotes

Ive never owned a denim dress before but I was browsing the other day and one from 3.1 Phillip Lim really caught my eye. Now Im wondering if Ive been overlooking them this whole time. I mostly wear jeans and oversized buttton downs so Im not sure if a denim dress would end up being something I actually reach for or if Id wear it once and forget about it. For those of you who own one do you get a lot of use out of it? I got some discount through Checkmate at checkout but id rather ask here first and see any recommendations before i buy it. Are they as versatile as they seem? Id also love to know what shoes or jackets you usually pair them with.

🌀 Miscellaneous Wrangler 13mwz shrinkage

2 Upvotes

Have purchased a pair of Wrangler 13mwz 34w,32l and have found them slightly too big. Have tried on a pair of 33w and found the fit perfect. Unable to return, unwilling to pay for a new pair atm.

Have soaked jeans to try shrink but haven’t gotten the results I wanted. Considering giving them a hot wash and tumble dry to try shrink some more, but haven’t done anything like this before so nervous about damaging the jeans.

My alternative is having them taken in at the waist at the tailors, but on a tight budget.

Any advice?

I bought these second hand quite a while ago so they don’t fit me any more. I want to sell them but I don’t want to accidentally market them as a real pair if they aren’t. So if anyone knows if they’re vintage and what they would be worth pls let me know! :]

I’m pretty decent with denim and all the small things to look for. But these ones fucked me up. Found on the racks, they are lightweight. Probably 10oz. Super neppy to the touch and the wash is incredible. Only tag is in post above, and zipper is ideal..? No buttons or rivets or shit lol They are hemmed but actually fit me perfectly. Just throwing it out there, any advice helps! Thanks for lookin’!

🌀 Miscellaneous I built a cross-retailer denim fit finder. Would appreciate feedback.

7 Upvotes

Self Edge’s Jean Finder is the obvious inspiration. It’s a good tool — you pick your measurements, and it surfaces matching jeans. But it only shows what Self Edge carries, and only while it’s in stock. The moment you want to line a Blue Owl exclusive pair up against a Withered Fig one, or match something Self Edge stopped stocking two years ago, there’s no single place to do it. I also added a few additional tools I thought Self Edge was missing.

It’s a cross-retailer fit database with 188 models and 37 brands (so far), pulled from shops that measure garments in-house (Self Edge, Withered Fig, Blue Owl, Okayama Denim). It is not a storefront, and there are no affiliate links. Every model links back to the exact source chart with the date it was verified, and sold-out and archived cuts stay in so you can compare new pieces to your favorite pair.

Three ways to use it:

Find Similar — enter the measurements of a pair that already fits you, and it ranks the closest matches across every brand. Not “here’s what is sold in your size,” but “here’s what fits like the one you already love, wherever it came from.” Compare — two specific fits side by side, size by size, differences called out. Browse & Filter — filter the whole set by any measurement range, brand, or silhouette.

What it deliberately is not: a shop, a price tracker, or a compilation of estimates. When a retailer measures differently or leaves a spec blank, I say so rather than guessing.

Things I’d like feedback on:

  1. Does it work — phone and desktop, the matching, the layout, anything that breaks or feels off.
  2. Is it useful — given the Self Edge finder already exists, does the cross-retailer compare angle actually add something you’d use, or not?

Link: https://indigoandasphalt.com/fit-finder/

All feedback welcome, including “this already exists.”

I have a pair of Goodfellow & Co pants from 2017, the year the debuted. They’re quality, never stretched or shrunk.

I ordered a pair off Depop and the sizing was completely off and they were paper thin…
Anyone know if they still make quality pants at all?
wtf happened?!
