Strange how simply washing a pair of old jeans and hanging them up to dry can so drastically alter their cut and fit on you. I guess that’s just the beauty of denim, or Nudies more specifically. Nonetheless, I picked these up from Holt Renfrew back in March of 2008, as a personal birthday present to myself, and I kid you not, I washed them for the first time last week (as per Nudies guidelines), and they honestly feel like they’re made exactly to contour to my legs man. Honestly, if any of you call yourselves fashionable, go pick up a pair of Nudies, wear them as much as you possibly can, and then wash them a year or two later. You’ll thank me. You’re already welcome.
