My Denim Adventure - Week 25

It's been 25 weeks since I got my first pair of raw denims, just a week past 6 months. Over the half year period, I have got them soaked in sweat, beer and other alcoholic beverages, juices, ice cream, oil and not to mention a variety of sauces, maybe even traces of liquid excretion at the crotch area??

    In that period of time I have got them dry cleaned once to get rid of the unbearable smell, raw denim lesson learnt was that every pair of raw denims are better off being hung inside out after a day of wear under the sun or fan to get rid of bad smells. Anyway, I'm rather dissatisfied by the fades produced in this 6 months of wear. Of course, the effective wearing of my Dr Denims is less than 6 months, halted by my travels and injuries. Anyhow, because of the dissatisfaction, I'm going to extend my wearing of my jeans further for another 6 months before washing them, but I shall get them dry cleaned first. =) Can't wait to get into my APCs though.
